Abstract

Aiming at the problems of excessive key overhead, high gate depth of standard quantum search circuits, and poor noise tolerance in post-quantum public-key schemes on noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) devices, this work proposes an asymmetric encryption mechanism that takes quantum search complexity as its security primitive. The scheme injects three-dimensional hypercube quantum walks and dynamic chaotic phases into an improved amplitude amplification shell, builds a shallow-circuit iteration based on neighborhood operations, and forms a triple key element from the quantum target state, chaotic parameters, and hash binding. Under a KEM–DEM layered framework and the quantum random oracle model (QROM) , composability and reprogramming proofs are provided. Simulations show that, at 128-bit security strength, encryption and decryption latency drops by approximately 48.7× and 18.9× compared with RSA and ECC respectively, quantum gate depth decreases by 40%–60%, and the average success rate of unstructured search reaches approximately 0.91. Under 10% gate-level noise, single-attempt decapsulation success approaches 50%, the fault-tolerance threshold shifts rightward by approximately 6.3 percentage points, and the man-in-the-middle attack blocking rate exceeds 0.97. This mechanism offers a practical pathway toward constructing computationally secure one-way trapdoor functions resistant to Shor-type attacks, yet the verification of search-hardness assumptions, chaotic-parameter optimization, and cross-platform consistency still await larger-scale hardware experiments.
