A Survey on Security Reductions in Post-Quantum Cryptography
Jana Sotáková
It is obviously necessary that the security of post-quantum cryptographic schemes is based on computational problems that are hard to solve even with a quantum computer (unlike, e.g., factoring). Examples of such computational problems appear in the theory of lattices or in coding theory. However, this is not sufficient: also the security proof, which comes in the form of an algorithmic reduction that turns any hypothetical attacker into an algorithm that solves the considered hard computational
