Description
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.

Predicting Module-Lattice Reduction
Speaker : Paola de Perthuis - CWI
Is module-lattice reduction better than unstructured lattice reduction? This question was highlighted as `Q8' in the Kyber NIST standardization submission (Avanzi et al., 2021), as potentially affecting the concrete security of Kyber and other module-lattice-based schemes. Foundational works on module-lattice reduction (Lee, Pellet-Mary, Stehlé, and Wallet, ASIACRYPT 2019; Mukherjee and Stephens[…]-

Attacking the Supersingular Isogeny Problem: From the Delfs–Galbraith algorithm to oriented graphs
Speaker : Arthur Herlédan Le Merdy - COSIC, KU Leuven
The threat of quantum computers motivates the introduction of new hard problems for cryptography.One promising candidate is the Isogeny problem: given two elliptic curves, compute a “nice’’ map between them, called an isogeny.In this talk, we study classical attacks on this problem, specialised to supersingular elliptic curves, on which the security of current isogeny-based cryptography relies. In[…]-
