    Shi Bai - Australian National University

The general number field sieve (GNFS) is the most efficient algorithm known for factoring large integers. It consists of several stages, the first one being polynomial selection. The running-time of the number field sieve depends on the quality of the chosen polynomials. The quality of the chosen polynomials can be modeled in terms of size and root properties. In this talk, we will describe some better algorithms to select polynomials with good size and root properties.<br/> The talk will be based on papers, Shi Bai, Cyril Bouvier, Alexander Kruppa and Paul Zimmermann. Better polynomials for GNFS. Math. Comp, 2015.<br/> Shi Bai, Richard Brent and Emmanuel Thomé. Root optimization of polynomials in the number field sieve. Math. Comp, 2015.

    Je vais rappeler les travaux de Nuida et Ostrovski sur l'utilisation des groupes pour l'élaboration de schémas cryptographiques homomorphes. Je vais présenter nos travaux qui fournissent des encodages à la fois plus efficaces et plus généraux, et qui déterminent exactement quels groupes peuvent être utilisés.   Puis je vais discuter GRAFHEN, un protocole qui utilise ces idées. Je dirai juste[…]

    Speaker : Jonathan Komada Eriksen - COSIC, KU Leuven

    Robert recently described a powerful correspondence between certain (Hermitian) modules and (polarized) abelian varieties, which simultaneously generalizes both the class-group action underlying protocols such as CSIDH, and the Deuring correspondence, underlying protocols such as SQIsign. Using this correspondence, he also proposed how to construct a post-quantum NIKE, called MIKE, which, at a[…]
