Homomorphism learning problems and its applications to public-key cryptography

Christopher Leonardi and Luis Ruiz-Lopez

Abstract

We present a framework for the study of a learning problem over abstract groups, and introduce a new technique which allows for public-key encryption using generic groups. We proved, however, that in order to obtain a quantum resistant encryption scheme, commutative groups cannot be used to instantiate this protocol.
