The Noisy Linear Equations problem involves finding the solution to a random linear system over a finite field given noisy evaluations. This is a generalisation of various learning problems widely used in cryptography, including Learning with Errors (LWE), Learning with Rounding (LWR), and Learning Parity with Noise (LPN).

The hardness of the Learning Parity with Noise (LPN) problem is a foundational assumption in cryptography, forming the basis of constructions ranging from symmetric-key primitives to public-key encryption and beyond. A central open question is whether the average-case hardness of LPN can be based on worst-case complexity assumptions, as has ... more >>>
A random local function defined by a $d$-ary predicate $P$ is one where each output bit is computed by applying $P$ to $d$ randomly chosen bits of its input. These represent natural distributions of instances for constraint satisfaction problems. They were put forward by Goldreich as candidates for low-complexity one-way ... more >>>
