Efficient Equivalent of Shallow Quantum Hashing

Abstract

Quantum hashing is a widely used technique in quantum computation that allows us to design space-efficient algorithms and protocols. Recently, Vasiliev has shown that the phase form of shallow quantum hashing can be implemented by a circuit of depth 2. In this paper, we establish a connection between shallow quantum hashing and single-qubit quantum hashing for the amplitude form. For a shallow circuit, we propose a circuit of depth 1 that achieves the same collision resistance.
