Pseudorandomness and cryptographic applications

A pseudorandom generator is an easy-to-compute function that stretches a short random string into a much longer string that “looks” just like a random string to any efficient adversary. One immediate application of a pseudorandom generator is the construction of a private key cryptosystem that is secure against chosen plaintext attack. There do not seem to be natural examples of functi…

Quantum random number generation: theory and practice (quantum science and te…

This book provides an overview of state-of-the-art implementations of quantum random number generators (QRNGs), and especially examines their relation to classical statistical randomness models and numerical techniques for computing random numbers. The reader - who ideally has a background in classical statistics, computer science, or cryptography - is introduced to the world of quantum bits st…
