Quantum-inspired Hash Function Based on Parity-dependent Quantum Walks with Memory. (arXiv:2308.05357v1 [quant-ph])

In this paper, we develop a generic controlled alternate quantum walk model
(called CQWM-P) by combining parity-dependent quantum walks with distinct
arbitrary memory lengths and then construct a quantum-inspired hash function
(called QHFM-P) based on this model. Numerical simulation shows that QHFM-P has
near-ideal statistical performance and is on a par with the state-of-the-art
hash functions based on discrete quantum walks in terms of sensitivity of hash
value to message, diffusion and confusion properties, uniform distribution
property, and collision resistance …
