Description

    Eric Schost - University of Western Ontario

Through examples taken from point-counting problems or invariant theory, I will give an overview of how lifting techniques (that is, symbolic versions of Newton's iteration) can help us solve polynomial systems.<br/> I will review the key ingredients needed to put this kind of approach to practice, such as degree bounds or efficient arithmetic for polynomials and power series, and hint at the remaining open problems.

    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[…]
