ePrint Report: Quantum Circuits of AES with a Low-depth Linear Layer and a New Structure

Haotian Shi, Xiutao Feng

In recent years quantum computing has developed rapidly. The security threat posed by quantum computing to cryptography makes it necessary to better evaluate the resource cost of attacking algorithms, some of which require quantum implementations of the attacked cryptographic building blocks. In this paper we manage to optimize quantum circuits of AES in several aspects. Firstly, based on de Brugière \textit{et …
