Assumption

Status	Statement	Tags
	Dream DPT for a moderately hard function Open: whether there exists a function family, and a standard fine-grained hardness hypothesis (the paper suggests NSETH as an example), for which solving t independent instances requires resources within a subexponentially small factor of solving them one at a time, with no loss in the exponent. The source reduces its permissionless consensus protocol to exactly this statement and leaves it unconstructed. 5 open	Direct Product Theorems Fine Grained CryptographyassumptionIOG
	Subexponential-query PCF from sparse LPN Open in both directions, and the source paper poses it as a question rather than conjecturing an answer; the affirmative direction is this page’s reading. The one follow-up construction from sparse LPN inherits the same superpolynomial ceiling and says so. 6 open	Learning Parity With Noise Pseudorandom Correlation Functions Random Oracle Modelromassumption
	Two-scheme key cycle Open in both directions, and the source paper says why the existing separations miss it: the counterexamples fix both schemes, whereas here the second is chosen after the first. Two hypotheses left implicit in the printed statement have to be added before it is even non-vacuous. 7 open	Circular Security Fully Homomorphic Encryptionassumption
	Standard-model weak PCF from sparse LPN Open, posed by the source as its second open question with an obstruction it names explicitly; the affirmative direction is this page’s reading. An independent follow-up construction reports the same random oracle as inherent to the same recursion. 6 open	Learning Parity With Noise Pseudorandom Correlation Functions Random Oracle Modelassumption
	Planted k-OV Hardness Conjecture 10 of the source, and a newly proposed average-case assumption rather than a question the literature already asked. Its worst-case counterpart – that k-OV requires n^(k-o(1)) time – is a central conjecture of fine-grained complexity. The planting preserves the marginal distribution of any subset of fewer than k vectors, and the source gives a search-to-decision reduction. 5 open	Average Case Hardness Fine Grained Cryptography Orthogonal Vectors Planted Constraint Satisfactionassumption
	CRS-free everlasting commitment from malicious PUFs Open: whether everlasting UC commitment is achievable in the fully malicious token model with no trusted setup. The source achieves it with a common reference string (its Theorem 31) and explicitly leaves removing the CRS as a question, noting that the usual equivocation techniques do not transfer to the everlasting setting. 6 open	Commitment Schemes Physically Uncloneable Functionsotherassumption
	Threshold one-shot decryption without extractability Open: whether threshold one-shot decryption (for every corruption threshold f < 1/2) follows from one-shot signatures and an ordinary, non-extractable witness encryption scheme. The one known construction needs the witness-encryption extractor to run its security reduction, and the source paper leaves open whether extractability can be weakened or dropped altogether. 4 open	One Shot Signatures Witness EncryptionassumptionIOG
	Blockwise-random quadratic recovery Open: whether there is a polynomial-time algorithm that provably recovers the planted input from m = n^{1+eps} published quadratics of the blockwise-random (Lin-Matt) form, sum of a random sparse (perfect-matching) part and an independent random dense part. The paper proves this for i.i.d.-nice polynomial distributions (Theorem 2) but the blockwise-random distribution is not nice, and reports only experimental recovery via a modified semidefinite program. 5 open	Average Case Hardness Pseudorandom Generatorsassumption
	Signed rank-one reweighting below the square root Resolved, affirmatively and more strongly than asked: every Borel probability measure on the sphere admits a signed reweighting reaching an exact (not merely epsilon-close) nonzero rank-one second moment at entropy cost only O(log n) – below every n^delta, for every delta > 0, with the constant C(epsilon,delta) = 2/(e*delta) independent of epsilon. Proved by an AI-driven proof harness (conjecture-harness campaign c/0048) across six revision rounds, twenty independent blind adversarial referee passes over four audited rounds, and four independent triage rulings; the load-bearing chain (Lemmas 1-4, Theorem, Corollary, Corollary B) has never had an upheld finding against it. No human has reviewed the mathematics, and nothing here is formalized in Lean. A separate concurrent session forked the same campaign at round 3 and closed the same scope-commentary gap by a different (but mathematically equivalent) edit; both branches are recorded in the campaign ledger and the fork is not yet reconciled. 6 open	Log Rank Conjecture Sum Of Squaresassumptionresearch-solved
	Best Separable State, constant completeness error Open: whether the paper’s 2^{Otilde(sqrt n)}-time algorithm for Best Separable State extends from perfect (and near-perfect, 1-1/n) completeness to any constant completeness error c < 1. The paper conjectures the affirmative and lists this first among its open questions; no partial result at any intermediate error is reported. 5 open	Quantum Information Sum Of Squaresassumption
	Permuted Codes Conjecture A new hardness assumption, printed as Conjecture 3.1 of the source and stated in its most general form deliberately, as a target for cryptanalysis rather than as the minimum its applications need. Implied by the older permuted puzzles conjecture; statistically true for O(log n) samples over constant-size alphabets; false if any one of its three randomizations is dropped. 4 open	Code Based Cryptography Dual Distance Pseudorandom Codes Watermarkingassumptionbarrier (ai)
	Polynomial Compatibility Conjecture Open in the inverse-polynomial regime. Proved for exponentially small influences by the paper that introduced it, and false for influences at or above 1/(2d); everything between is what the quantum separations depend on. 5 open	Compressed Oracle Quantum Query Complexity Quantum Random Oracle Modelqromassumption
	Three moves from DL, ROM only Open: three moves, black-box in the group, ROM only, from DL alone. Three moves is achieved from DDH in the ROM and from DL in AGM+ROM; four moves is achieved from DL in the ROM. 5 open	Blind Signatures Random Oracle Model Signature Schemes Tight Reductionsromassumption
