Editing Quantum Encryption with Certified Deletion (section)

==Functionality==
This functionality allows encryption of classical data into a quantum ciphertext so that the recipient of the ciphertext can produce a deletion certificate (a classical string) which proves to the originator that the recipient can no longer obtain the original plaintext should the decryption key be revealed.

A Certified Deletion Encryption (CDE) scheme usually consists of the following 5 algorithms:
* ''KeyGen:'' This algorithm generates the key used in later stages
* ''Enc:'' This algorithm encrypts the classical plaintext into a quantum ciphertext
* ''Dec:'' This algorithm decrypts the quantum ciphertext to recover the classical plaintext
* ''Del:'' This algorithm deletes the ciphertext and generates a deletion certificate
* ''Ver:'' This algorithm verifies the deletion certificate
