    The first practical calculations: congruences for Ramanujan's tau function mod 13

    • April 15, 2005

    • IRMAR - Université de Rennes - Campus Beaulieu Bat. 22, RDC, Rennes - Amphi Lebesgue

    Speaker : Johan Bosma - Leiden University

    We will describe how we are implementing Edixhoven's method for computing polynomials for the mod l Galois representations associated to modular forms. The computations are done in MAGMA, using modular symbols and numerical analysis. Recently, we have computed such polynomials for the mod 13 representation associated to Delta, the discriminant modular form of weight 12. In that case, we work with[…]

    Generic Homomorphic Undeniable Signatures

    • September 24, 2004

    • IRMAR - Université de Rennes - Campus Beaulieu Bat. 22, RDC, Rennes - Amphi Lebesgue

    Speaker : Serge Vaudenay - EPFL

    We introduce a new computational problem related to the interpolation of group homomorphisms which generalizes many famous cryptographic problems including discrete logarithm, Diffie-Hellman, and RSA. As an application, we propose a generic undeniable signature scheme which generalizes the MOVA schemes. Our scheme is generic in the sense that we transform a private group homomorphism from public[…]

    Propriétés cryptographiques des fonctions booléennes symétriques

    • May 27, 2005

    • IRMAR - Université de Rennes - Campus Beaulieu Bat. 22, RDC, Rennes - Amphi Lebesgue

    Speaker : Marion Videau - INRIA Rocquencourt

    Les fonctions booléennes symétriques sont les fonctions dont la valeur ne dépend que du poids du vecteur d'entrée. Ces fonctions peuvent être représentées plus simplement, que ce soit par leur forme algébrique normale ou leur vecteur des valeurs, que des fonctions booléennes générales --- vecteurs de taille (n+1) contre des vecteurs de taille 2^{n} en général. En outre, ces fonctions ont une[…]

    Algebraic attacks and design of block ciphers, stream ciphers, and multivariate public key schemes

    • March 19, 2004

    • IRMAR - Université de Rennes - Campus Beaulieu Bat. 22, RDC, Rennes - Amphi Lebesgue

    Speaker : Nicolas Courtois - Schlumberger

    Following the famous 1949 paper of Shannon, breaking a "good" cipher should require: "as much work as solving a system of simultaneous equations in a large number of unknowns of a complex type". For most practical cryptosystems, the problem of recovering the key can indeed can be seen as solving a huge system of binary nonlinear equations. In general, solving such a problem is known to be NP-hard,[…]

    Quantum complexity of the knapsack problem

    • November 19, 2004

    • IRMAR - Université de Rennes - Campus Beaulieu Bat. 22, RDC, Rennes - Amphi Lebesgue

    Speaker : Alexandre Kazakov

    An analogue quantum computer for the solution of the knapsack problem is discussed. Dynamics of some quantum-optical system exhibits explicit parallels with knapsack problem. This fact gives the possibility to propose an quantum algorithm for the knapsack problem and to estimate the quantum complexity of this problem.

    Packings on the Grassmann manifold: an interesting approach for non coherent space-time coding

    • November 21, 2003

    • IRMAR - Université de Rennes - Campus Beaulieu Bat. 22, RDC, Rennes - Amphi Lebesgue

    Speaker : Jean-Claude Belfiore - ENST

    The need of high data rates on the radio channel (WiFi and its future for example) explains the increasing number of researchers working on space-time codes. Preparing Wireless IP systems, some companies and some researchers are promoting the use of non coherent space-time codes.<br/> We show that designing a non coherent space-time code is equivalent to finding some good packings on the Grassmann[…]
