The Security of Hardware-Based Omega(n2) Cryptographic One-Way Functions: Beyond Satisfiability and P=NP

Abstract

We present a class of hardware-based cryptographic one-way functions that, in practice, would be hard to invert even if P=NP and linear-time satisfiability algorithms exist. Such functions use a hardware-based component with omega(n2) size circuits, and omega(n2) run time.
