New mathematical proof questions reversibility of memory hardness

Original: Mathematical Proof that memory hardness is not reversible? https:// infosec.pub/post/52958081

A claim circulating among cryptography and information security practitioners states that a mathematical proof has been presented showing memory hardness is not reversible. The discussion is happening on a security-focused forum, where users are weighing the claim and its possible implications for password hashing and memory-hard functions. Details of the proof itself, its authors, and whether it has been peer reviewed are not yet clear.

Why now: Security researchers are interested because a proven non-reversibility result for memory hardness would matter for password hashing and cryptographic function design
