Arithmetic and geometric structures in cryptography

Benjamin Pierre Charles Wesolowski

We explore a few algebraic and geometric structures, through certain questions posed by modern cryptography. We focus on the cases of discrete logarithms in finite fields of small characteristic, the structure of isogeny graphs of ordinary abelian varietie ...

Short Stickelberger Class Relations and Application to Ideal-SVP

Benjamin Pierre Charles Wesolowski

The worst-case hardness of finding short vectors in ideals of cyclotomic number fields (Ideal-SVP) is a central matter in lattice based cryptography. Assuming the worst-case hardness of Ideal-SVP allows to prove the Ring-LWE and Ring-SIS assumptions, and t ...

Algebraic Trace Functions Over The Primes

Philippe Michel

We study sums over primes of trace functions of l-adic sheaves. Using an extension of our earlier results on algebraic twists of modular forms to the case of Eisenstein series and bounds for Type II sums based on similar applications of the Riemann hypothe ...

Influence of numerical schemes on statistical properties of computed charged particle trajectories in turbulent electromagnetic fields

A class of numerical schemes is developed for the study of charged particle transport in complex stationary electromagnetic fields and tested for fields obtained from a numerical solution of the magneto-hydrodynamic equation. The performances of these sche ...

Solving a $6120$-bit DLP on a Desktop Computer

Robert Granger, Jens Markus Zumbrägel

In this paper we show how some recent ideas regarding the discrete logarithm problem (DLP) in finite fields of small characteristic may be applied to compute logarithms in some very large fields extremely efficiently. By combining the polynomial time relat ...

Minimum euclidien des ordres maximaux dans les algèbres centrales à division

Jérôme Chaubert

This work concerns the study of Euclidean minima of maximal orders in central simple algebras. In the first part, we define the concept of ideal lattice in the non-commutative case. Let A be a semi-simple algebra over Q. An ideal lattice over A is a triple ...

Upper bounds for Euclidean minima of algebraic number fields

Eva Bayer Fluckiger

The aim of this paper is to give new upper bounds for Euclidean minima of algebraic number fields. In particular, to show that Minkowski's conjecture holds for the maximal totally real subfields of cyclotomic fields of prime power conductor. ...

On Small Degree Extension Fields in Cryptology

Robert Granger

This thesis studies the implications of using public key cryptographic primitives that are based in, or map to, the multiplicative group of finite fields with small extension degree. A central observation is that the multiplicative group of extension field ...
