In 1992, A. Hiltgen [1] provided the first constructions of provably (slightly) secure cryptographic primitives, namely feebly one-way functions . These functions are provably harder to invert than to compute, but the complexity (viewed as circuit complexity over circuits with arbitrary binary gates) is amplified by a constant factor only (with the factor approaching 2). In traditional cryptography, one-way functions are the basic primitive of private-key and digital signature schemes, while public-key cryptosystems are constructed with trapdoor functions. We continue Hiltgen's work by providing an example of a feebly trapdoor function where the adversary is guaranteed to spend more time than every honest participant by a constant factor of $\frac{25}{22}$.
