Pseudoentanglement
summary
Defines pseudoentanglement as two efficiently preparable ensembles that are computationally indistinguishable yet have a polynomial gap in von Neumann entropy; proves a SWAP-test lower bound showing pseudorandom states must have ≥log n entanglement and builds ensembles that saturate that bound using PRFs/PRPs to force collisions; gives a public‑key construction from LWE by creating injective vs lossy linear maps (hashing codomains to match types); derives hardness of measuring entanglement and of ground‑state entanglement for mapped local Hamiltonians.
