    Marco Streng - Leiden University

Igusa class polynomials are the genus-2 analogue of the classical Hilbert class polynomials. We explain these notions and discuss the differences between the classical (elliptic) case and the genus-2 case, mostly from a computational perspective. One of the main applications of Igusa class polynomials is the construction of genus-2 curves that are suitable for cryptography.

    CryptoVerif is a security protocol verifier sound in the computational model of cryptography. It produces proofs by sequences of games, like those done manually by cryptographers. It has an automatic proof strategy and can also be guided by the user. It provides a generic method for specifying security assumptions on many cryptographic primitives, and can prove secrecy, authentication, and[…]
