Description

  • Speaker

    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.

    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[…]
