Description
We consider properties of Boolean functions which are important when they are used as components in cryptographic primitives. We focus mainly on non-linearity. Closely related issues are the weight distribution of BCH codes with two zeros and the crosscorrelation of two m-sequences. We shall present some recently solved old problems and the methods which where required to achieve this breakthrough. Finally we shall give a perspective for further research and focus on some still open questions.

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[…]-
