After coming out of the Jinling Institute for Advanced Study, Academician Liu felt as if he was sleepwalking, and his head was in chaos.
However, this is not the most critical thing. The most critical thing is that this quantum computer is only the size of a palm! It’s many times smaller than the quantum computer in the Chinese Academy of Sciences!
"I feel like... maybe I need to go back to school and get a refresher."
But after listening to this "unique" class, he felt that the worldview he had spent decades building had been completely refreshed.
This is also the scariest thing about this technology.
Mathematics, physics, materials, and integrated circuit design... If we break it down a little more carefully, the knowledge points covered in this class can even be broken down into more than a dozen subject branches.
It took less than 1 second to disassemble the product of prime numbers with more than 1024 digits, which at least shows that the calculator in his hand has at least 500 qubits.
After the physical demonstration, Lu Zhou then explained to the experts from the Chinese Academy of Sciences the application of topological quantum theory in model insulators from a theoretical level, and how he used some basic carbon-based integration Circuit components as well as Josephson junctions to implement Majorana fermions.
However, this is not the most critical thing. The most critical thing is that this quantum computer is only the size of a palm! It’s many times smaller than the quantum computer in the Chinese Academy of Sciences!
After stopping writing, Lu Zhou found an envelope from the drawer, stuffed the letter in, and threw it on the corner of the table.
The encryption and decryption methods of communication technology have always been in a state of dynamic balance of development. However, breakthroughs in topological quantum computing technology have now broken this balance between offense and defense.
As we all know, not only IT and finance, more than 90% of the security of modern information networks relies on asymmetric public key encryption, and the most widely used one is the RSA encryption algorithm.
Objectively speaking, it is really difficult for someone who is engaged in applied research to understand those complicated physical and mathematical formulas.
Just like the advantages that controllable fusion technology has established for us in the energy field.
Since there is no fixed formula for the factorization of the product of large prime numbers, and there is only one solution, in principle, as long as the product of prime numbers used is large enough, it basically has no solution, even if Professor Lu is asked to calculate it. It may be calculated in our lifetime.
Fortunately, although the formula accounts for more than 70% of the part, there are dynamic graphics as demonstrations, so that they will not be completely unable to understand the mystery.
Although this may not be as exciting as doing scientific research itself.

Perhaps, this is the reason why he can overcome one world-class problem after another...
"It's not a matter of taking it seriously," Academician Liu shook his head and said, "It's just that sometimes I really feel that I can no longer keep up with the times."
Looking at Academician Liu who looked melancholy, he comforted him calmly.
And if compared horizontally, the best result they achieved was only 20 qubits...
According to the generally accepted view, the three pillars of modern science and technology are energy, information, and materials, and quantum computers have basically stood at the pinnacle of this century’s fantasy and hope for future information technology.
It took less than 1 second to disassemble the product of prime numbers with more than 1024 digits, which at least shows that the calculator in his hand has at least 500 qubits.
…
Looking at Academician Liu who looked melancholy, he comforted him calmly.
However, for the young man who was not yet thirty years old, those profound and obscure knowledge seemed to come at his fingertips, and there was no obstacle in using it.
However, this is not the most critical thing. The most critical thing is that this quantum computer is only the size of a palm! It’s many times smaller than the quantum computer in the Chinese Academy of Sciences!
I'm afraid it's not even a problem.
"...After all, this is Academician Lu. His class is indeed difficult to understand, so don't take it too seriously. I believe that even if you don't understand, it will be the same even if other people come here to sit here."
However, this is not the most critical thing. The most critical thing is that this quantum computer is only the size of a palm! It’s many times smaller than the quantum computer in the Chinese Academy of Sciences!
And if compared horizontally, the best result they achieved was only 20 qubits...
"How far has Professor Lu achieved this?"
Decrypting a traditional asymmetric public key encryption problem only takes a few seconds.
The top priority now is that we must establish a set of stricter and more reliable encryption algorithms as a replacement for the original encryption method.
…
That’s it, this year’s latest achievement.
However, in the face of quantum computers, this kind of problem that takes hundreds of years for traditional computers to solve can be solved in only a few seconds or even less than a second.
A quantum encryption algorithm similar to the bb84 protocol is a good choice, but it will still be unable to cope with a quantum computer with more than 1,000 qubits.
If we talk about the importance of the technology itself, the importance of quantum computers is undoubtedly far greater than the carbon-based chip itself.
"Although the topic of topological quantum computing is relatively new, there are people in our institute who are working on it. The benchmark is Microsoft's Majorana fermion project. However, whether it is Academician Pan's project or the one in our institute, Comparing Microsoft's projects, or Microsoft's own... qubits have always been around the number of twenty or thirty."
And it's not just that.

In addition, compared to the box-sized quantum computer, what shocked him more was Academician Lu himself who stood on the stage and explained these theories to them.

Once this technology becomes popular, it will bring huge development to our society, but it will also bring huge security risks.

"... It's really scary."
Even though some people may say that asymmetric public key encryption algorithms are not just RSA, but also elliptic curve encryption, Elgamal encryption, etc. based on discrete logarithms...
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that someone in this world could really be so good.

Although this may not be as exciting as doing scientific research itself.
Since there is no fixed formula for the factorization of the product of large prime numbers, and there is only one solution, in principle, as long as the product of prime numbers used is large enough, it basically has no solution, even if Professor Lu is asked to calculate it. It may be calculated in our lifetime.
Decrypting a traditional asymmetric public key encryption problem only takes a few seconds.
As we all know, not only IT and finance, more than 90% of the security of modern information networks relies on asymmetric public key encryption, and the most widely used one is the RSA encryption algorithm.
However, for the young man who was not yet thirty years old, those profound and obscure knowledge seemed to come at his fingertips, and there was no obstacle in using it.
After stopping writing, Lu Zhou found an envelope from the drawer, stuffed the letter in, and threw it on the corner of the table.
Once this new encryption technology is mastered, it will be the best time to promote the commercialization of quantum computers.
Once this technology becomes popular, it will bring huge development to our society, but it will also bring huge security risks.
A quantum encryption algorithm similar to the bb84 protocol is a good choice, but it will still be unable to cope with a quantum computer with more than 1,000 qubits.
And by then, we will have information technology advantages that other countries cannot match.
However, for the young man who was not yet thirty years old, those profound and obscure knowledge seemed to come at his fingertips, and there was no obstacle in using it.
This is an order of magnitude higher!
This is also the scariest thing about this technology.
Therefore, this new encryption rule must be more reliable than the bb48 protocol, and even must surpass its improved version BBM92.
After getting into the car parked at the entrance of the institute, Academician Liu suddenly sighed with emotion.
The top priority now is that we must establish a set of stricter and more reliable encryption algorithms as a replacement for the original encryption method.
Academician Liu: "I forgot to ask the specific number, but judging from the display just now... there is at least 500."
Although these things are not things that a scholar needs to worry about, if possible, Lu Zhou still hopes that his research results can bring some positive impact to the world instead of pushing it in a bad direction.
After a while, Director Li sighed quietly as if he had come to his senses.
It took less than 1 second to disassemble the product of prime numbers with more than 1024 digits, which at least shows that the calculator in his hand has at least 500 qubits.
Looking at Academician Liu who looked melancholy, he comforted him calmly.
When he goes to Jinda tomorrow, he will throw it to Wang Peng and ask him to find someone to take it to Chang'an Street in Beijing.

Decrypting a traditional asymmetric public key encryption problem only takes a few seconds.
In my opinion, quantum computer technology with more than 1,000 qubits can be broken through in a short time.
This is also the scariest thing about this technology.
However, for the young man who was not yet thirty years old, those profound and obscure knowledge seemed to come at his fingertips, and there was no obstacle in using it.
Looking at Academician Liu who looked melancholy, he comforted him calmly.
After coming out of the Jinling Institute for Advanced Study, Academician Liu felt as if he was sleepwalking, and his head was in chaos.
Mathematics, physics, materials, and integrated circuit design... If we break it down a little more carefully, the knowledge points covered in this class can even be broken down into more than a dozen subject branches.
Therefore, this new encryption rule must be more reliable than the bb48 protocol, and even must surpass its improved version BBM92.
Fortunately, although the formula accounts for more than 70% of the part, there are dynamic graphics as demonstrations, so that they will not be completely unable to understand the mystery.
However, this is not the most critical thing. The most critical thing is that this quantum computer is only the size of a palm! It’s many times smaller than the quantum computer in the Chinese Academy of Sciences!
However, in the face of quantum computers, this kind of problem that takes hundreds of years for traditional computers to solve can be solved in only a few seconds or even less than a second.
There was silence in the carriage for a long time.
Decrypting a traditional asymmetric public key encryption problem only takes a few seconds.
Director Li's expression was quite calm.

This is also the scariest thing about this technology.
That’s it, this year’s latest achievement.
If we talk about the importance of the technology itself, the importance of quantum computers is undoubtedly far greater than the carbon-based chip itself.
But in the face of the computing power of quantum computers, what does it matter

"...After all, this is Academician Lu. His class is indeed difficult to understand, so don't take it too seriously. I believe that even if you don't understand, it will be the same even if other people come here to sit here."
And by then, we will have information technology advantages that other countries cannot match.
The most important thing is that traditional encryption methods are stripped naked in front of quantum computers, and they are completely undefended.
After returning home in the evening, Lu Zhou sat at his desk and thought for a long time. Finally, he took out a letter and wrote on it with a pen.
Once this new encryption technology is mastered, it will be the best time to promote the commercialization of quantum computers.

Just like the advantages that controllable fusion technology has established for us in the energy field.
After getting into the car parked at the entrance of the institute, Academician Liu suddenly sighed with emotion.
And if compared horizontally, the best result they achieved was only 20 qubits...
"How far has Professor Lu achieved this?"

Even though some people may say that asymmetric public key encryption algorithms are not just RSA, but also elliptic curve encryption, Elgamal encryption, etc. based on discrete logarithms...
"It's not a matter of taking it seriously," Academician Liu shook his head and said, "It's just that sometimes I really feel that I can no longer keep up with the times."
But in the face of the computing power of quantum computers, what does it matter
It is no exaggeration to say that it can even be compared with controllable fusion technology.

"I feel like... maybe I need to go back to school and get a refresher."
The encryption and decryption methods of communication technology have always been in a state of dynamic balance of development. However, breakthroughs in topological quantum computing technology have now broken this balance between offense and defense.

"I feel like... maybe I need to go back to school and get a refresher."
Although he felt that even if he didn't say anything, Director Li would definitely report it to his superiors, but on this kind of issue, sometimes the opinions of experts would be more effective, and it would be easier to attract the attention of senior officials.
Since there is no fixed formula for the factorization of the product of large prime numbers, and there is only one solution, in principle, as long as the product of prime numbers used is large enough, it basically has no solution, even if Professor Lu is asked to calculate it.

According to the generally accepted view, the three pillars of modern science and technology are energy, information, and materials, and quantum computers have basically stood at the pinnacle of this century’s fantasy and hope for future information technology.
The encryption and decryption methods of communication technology have always been in a state of dynamic balance of development. However, breakthroughs in topological quantum computing technology have now broken this balance between offense and defense.
