Description
We will describe how we are implementing Edixhoven's method for computing polynomials for the mod l Galois representations associated to modular forms. The computations are done in MAGMA, using modular symbols and numerical analysis. Recently, we have computed such polynomials for the mod 13 representation associated to Delta, the discriminant modular form of weight 12. In that case, we work with the modular curve X_1(13), which is of genus 2, and the polynomials have degrees 14 and 168.

Algorithms for post-quantum commutative group actions
Speaker : Marc Houben - Inria Bordeaux
At the historical foundation of isogeny-based cryptography lies a scheme known as CRS; a key exchange protocol based on class group actions on elliptic curves. Along with more efficient variants, such as CSIDH, this framework has emerged as a powerful building block for the construction of advanced post-quantum cryptographic primitives. Unfortunately, all protocols in this line of work are[…] -
Endomorphisms via Splittings
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[…]-
