    Eimar Byrne - University College Dublin

In the 1960s, Berlekamp introduced the negacyclic codes over GF(p) and described an efficient decoder that corrects any t Lee errors, where p > 2t. We consider this family of codes, defined over the integers modulo 4. We show that if a generator polynomial for a Z4 negacyclic code C has roots a^{2j+1} for j=0,...,t, where a is a primitive 2n th root of unity in a Galois extension of Z4, then C is a t Lee error-correcting code. We present a corresponding decoding algorithm that corrects any t Lee errors. The treatment given here uses techniques from Groebner bases, although this is not essential to the decoding method.

    From secure communications to online banking, cryptography is the cornerstone of most modern secure applications. Unfortunately, cryptographic design and implementation is notoriously error-prone, with a long history of design flaws, implementation bugs, and high-profile attacks. To address this issue, several projects proposed the use of formal verification techniques to statically ensure the[…]

    Speaker : Radu Toma - Sorbonne Université

    In joint work with Koen de Boer, Aurel Page, and Benjamin Wesolowski, we study the hardness of the approximate Shortest Independent Vectors Problem (SIVP) for random module lattices. We use here a natural notion of randomness as defined originally by Siegel through Haar measures. By proving a reduction, we show it is essentially as hard as the problem for arbitrary instances. While this was[…]

    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[…]
