I am looking for examples post-quantum secure trapdoor functions. Ideally, the inversion knowing the trapdoor should be "simple" in the sense that it can be computed by a circuit in NC^1.

Lattice-based problems are the most common examples for this. In general, we need to generate a “hard” public basis $B'$ (chosen at random from some appropriate distribution) of some lattice $L$ together with a “good” trapdoor basis of $B$ whose GramSchmidt vectors are relatively short for a generating trapdoor structure.

Based on this construction, public key cryptosytems can be designed. For example, the idea underlying GGH cryptosystem is: given any basis for a lattice, it is easy to generate a vector which is close to a lattice point. However, it is hard to return from this "close-to-Iattice" vector to the original lattice point (given a "bad" lattice basis.) In this concept, "good” basis $B$ can be defined as a "trapdoor".

Problems like SIS or LWE are popular lattice-based problems for public key constructions and these problems are based on the idea mentioned above. There are many interrelated lattice-based problems in the literature.

Micciancio and Goldwasser presented a graphical representation of the relations between the classical hard lattice problems. In this picture, an arrow from problem A to problem B means that problem A can be reduced to problem B in polynomial time.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
