A Coherent View of Lattice and Code-Based Cryptography in the Context of Post-Quantum Cryptography

Cryptography is a subject area of long history, playing a crucial role in human society ever since the dawn of civilization. Claude Shannon's 1945 paper ``A Mathematical Theory of Cryptography'' is widely regarded as the beginning of modern cryptography, as a new science. In 1949, Shannon published another landmark paper ``A Mathematical Theory of Communication'', founding the area of Information Theory.

New Strategy to Control the Orientation of an Unpaired Spin in a Molecule

Controlling the orientation of a single unpaired electron (called its spin) is no easy task, especially if the electron is in a molecule in its lowest energy state. Yet the ability to control the orientation of the electrons is important to the development of some quantum computing strategies.

UC Santa Barbara Physicists Become the First to Observe a “Quantum Boomerang” Effect

Physicists at UC Santa Barbara have become the first to experimentally observe a quirky behavior of the quantum world: a "quantum boomerang" effect that occurs when particles in a disordered system are kicked out of their locations. Instead of landing elsewhere as one might expect, they turn around and come back to where they started and stop there.

Study Demonstrates a New Level of Control Over Atoms' Interactions

In a new study, Stanford researchers demonstrate how to manipulate atoms so they interact with an unprecedented degree of control. Using precisely delivered light and magnetic fields, the researchers programmed a straight line of atoms into treelike shapes, a twisted loop called a Möbius strip and other patterns.
