The double exponential runtime is tight for 2-stage stochastic ILPs

Kim-Manuel Klein, Klaus Jansen, Alexandra Anna Lassota

We consider fundamental algorithmic number theoretic problems and their relation to a class of block structured Integer Linear Programs (ILPs) called 2-stage stochastic. A 2-stage stochastic ILP is an integer program of the form min{c(T)x vertical bar Ax = ...

Computation of a 768-Bit Prime Field Discrete Logarithm

Arjen Lenstra, Thorsten Kleinjung

This paper reports on the number field sieve computation of a 768-bit prime field discrete logarithm, describes the different parameter optimizations and resulting algorithmic changes compared to the factorization of a 768-bit RSA modulus, and briefly disc ...

On the Analysis of Public-Key Cryptologic Algorithms

Andrea Miele

The RSA cryptosystem introduced in 1977 by Ron Rivest, Adi Shamir and Len Adleman is the most commonly deployed public-key cryptosystem. Elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) introduced in the mid 80's by Neal Koblitz and Victor Miller is becoming an increasin ...

Cofactorization on Graphics Processing Units

Arjen Lenstra, Joppe Willem Bos, Thorsten Kleinjung, Andrea Miele

We show how the cofactorization step, a compute-intensive part of the relation collection phase of the number field sieve (NFS), can be farmed out to a graphics processing unit. Our implementation on a GTX 580 GPU, which is integrated with a state-of-the-a ...

A sieve algorithm based on overlattices

Anja Annemone Becker

In this paper, we present a heuristic algorithm for solving exact, as well as approximate, shortest vector and closest vector problems on lattices. The algorithm can be seen as a modified sieving algorithm for which the vectors of the intermediate sets lie ...

A heterogeneous computing environment to solve the 768-bit RSA challenge

Arjen Lenstra, Pénélope Leyland, Thorsten Kleinjung, Pascal Jermini, Dag Arne Osvik, Joppe Willem Bos, Michela Thiémard, Heinz Stockinger

In December 2009 the 768-bit, 232-digit number RSA-768 was factored using the number field sieve. Overall, the computational challenge would take more than 1700 years on a single, standard core. In the article we present the heterogeneous computing approac ...

On the Cryptanalysis of Public-Key Cryptography

Joppe Willem Bos

Nowadays, the most popular public-key cryptosystems are based on either the integer factorization or the discrete logarithm problem. The feasibility of solving these mathematical problems in practice is studied and techniques are presented to speed-up the ...

A kilobit special number field sieve factorization

Arjen Lenstra, Thorsten Kleinjung, Dag Arne Osvik

We describe how we reached a new factoring milestone by completing the first special number field sieve factorization of a number having more than 1024 bits, namely the Mersenne number 21039 -1. Although this factorization is orders of magnitude ...

VSH, an efficient and provable collision-resistant hash function

Arjen Lenstra

We introduce VSH, very smooth hash, a new S-bit hash function that is provably collision-resistant assuming the hardness of finding nontrivial modular square roots of very smooth numbers modulo an S-bit composite. By very smooth, we mean that the smoothnes ...
