Description
Soit P(x,y) un polynôme en deux variables à coefficients réels. On suppose que P(x,y) est à valeurs positives sur R^2. Hilbert a montré que le polynôme P(x,y) s'écrit comme somme de quatres carrés dans R(x,y). Une question naturelle est de savoir si P(x,y) est une somme de trois carrés dans R(x,y). Cette question n'a pas de réponse connue en général, mais elle peut être reformulée en termes de jacobiennes. Nous expliquons d'abord comment l'étude des points de torsion R(x)-rationnels de certaines jacobiennes permet d'énoncer des formules pour écrire certains produits de la forme (y^2+a(x)^2)(y^2+b(x))(y^2+c(x))(y^2+d(x)) comme somme de trois carrés dans R(x,y) (une telle écriture n'existe pas toujours). Dans un second temps, nous donnons une famille de polynômes en deux variables P_{i}(x,y) positifs ou nuls sur R^2 de degré 8 qui ne sont pas somme de trois carrés dans R(x,y). Pour cela, nous montrons que le R(x)-rang de Mordell-Weil de la jacobienne de la courbe hyperelliptique d'équation affine z^2+P_{i}(x,y)=0 est nul.

Lie algebras and the security of cryptosystems based on classical varieties in disguise
Speaker : Mingjie Chen - KU Leuven
In 2006, de Graaf et al. proposed a strategy based on Lie algebras for finding a linear transformation in the projective linear group that connects two linearly equivalent projective varieties defined over the rational numbers. Their method succeeds for several families of “classical” varieties, such as Veronese varieties, which are known to have large automorphism groups. In this talk, we[…]-

Some applications of linear programming to Dilithium
Speaker : Paco AZEVEDO OLIVEIRA - Thales & UVSQ
Dilithium is a signature algorithm, considered post-quantum, and recently standardized under the name ML-DSA by NIST. Due to its security and performance, it is recommended in most use cases. During this presentation, I will outline the main ideas behind two studies, conducted in collaboration with Andersson Calle-Vierra, Benoît Cogliati, and Louis Goubin, which provide a better understanding of[…] -
Wagner’s Algorithm Provably Runs in Subexponential Time for SIS^∞
Speaker : Johanna Loyer - Inria Saclay
At CRYPTO 2015, Kirchner and Fouque claimed that a carefully tuned variant of the Blum-Kalai-Wasserman (BKW) algorithm (JACM 2003) should solve the Learning with Errors problem (LWE) in slightly subexponential time for modulus q = poly(n) and narrow error distribution, when given enough LWE samples. Taking a modular view, one may regard BKW as a combination of Wagner’s algorithm (CRYPTO 2002), run[…]-

CryptoVerif: a computationally-sound security protocol verifier
Speaker : Bruno Blanchet - Inria
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[…]-

Structured-Seed Local Pseudorandom Generators and their Applications
Speaker : Nikolas Melissaris - IRIF
We introduce structured‑seed local pseudorandom generators (SSL-PRGs), pseudorandom generators whose seed is drawn from an efficiently sampleable, structured distribution rather than uniformly. This seemingly modest relaxation turns out to capture many known applications of local PRGs, yet it can be realized from a broader family of hardness assumptions. Our main technical contribution is a[…]-
