Description
Folded Gabidulin codes were proposed by Mahdavifar and Vardy in 2012. Beside the code construction an interpolation-based decoding scheme that can correct rank errors beyond the unique decoding radius for low code rates was presented.<br/> In this talk we present an efficient interpolation-based decoding algorithm for folded Gabidulin codes that can correct rank errors beyond half the minimum rank distance for any code rate 0 ? R ? 1. The algorithm serves as a list decoder or as a probabilistic unique decoder and improves upon existing schemes, especially for high code rates. A probabilistic unique decoder with adjustable decoding radius is presented that outputs a unique solution with high probability. An upper bound on the average list size of folded Gabidulin codes and on the decoding failure probability of the decoder is presented.<br/> We show how to modify the decoding algorithm by Mahdavifahr and Vardy to use it as a probabilistic unique decoder for low-rate codes.

Algorithms for post-quantum commutative group actions
Speaker : Marc Houben - Inria Bordeaux
At the historical foundation of isogeny-based cryptography lies a scheme known as CRS; a key exchange protocol based on class group actions on elliptic curves. Along with more efficient variants, such as CSIDH, this framework has emerged as a powerful building block for the construction of advanced post-quantum cryptographic primitives. Unfortunately, all protocols in this line of work are[…] -
Endomorphisms via Splittings
Speaker : Min-Yi Shen - No Affiliation
One of the fundamental hardness assumptions underlying isogeny-based cryptography is the problem of finding a non-trivial endomorphism of a given supersingular elliptic curve. In this talk, we show that the problem is related to the problem of finding a splitting of a principally polarised superspecial abelian surface. In particular, we provide formal security reductions and a proof-of-concept[…]-
