New Results On The Pseudoredundancy

The concepts of pseudocodeword and pseudoweight play a fundamental role in the finite-length analysis of LDPC codes. The pseudoredundancy of a binary linear code is defined as the minimum number of rows in a parity-check matrix such that the corresponding ...

Indiscreet logarithms in finite fields of small characteristic

Robert Granger, Thorsten Kleinjung, Jens Markus Zumbrägel

Recently, several striking advances have taken place regarding the discrete logarithm problem (DLP) in finite fields of small characteristic, despite progress having remained essentially static for nearly thirty years, with the best known algorithms being ...

On the discrete logarithm problem in finite fields of fixed characteristic

Robert Granger, Thorsten Kleinjung, Jens Markus Zumbrägel

For~

q

a prime power, the discrete logarithm problem (DLP) in~

\F_{q}

consists in finding, for any

g \in \mathbb{F}_{q}^{\times}

and

h \in \langle g \rangle

, an integer~

x

such that

g^x = h

. We present an algorithm for computing discrete logarithm ...

Breaking `128-bit Secure' Supersingular Binary Curves (or how to solve discrete logarithms in $\mathbb{F}_{2^{4 \cdot 1223}}$ and $\mathbb{F}_{2^{12 \cdot 367}}$)

Robert Granger, Thorsten Kleinjung, Jens Markus Zumbrägel

In late 2012 and early 2013 the discrete logarithm problem (DLP) in finite fields of small characteristic underwent a dramatic series of breakthroughs, culminating in a heuristic quasi-polynomial time algorithm, due to Barbulescu, Gaudry, Joux and Thomé. U ...
