Description
A Fountain code is a code of fixed dimension and a limitless block-length. This is a new class of codes with very interesting applications. In this talk I will show how Fountain codes can be applied to the problem of reliable, robust, and speedy transmission of data over a heterogeneous network from one or multiple transmitters to one or multiple receivers. I will then talk about applications to the design of reliable end-to-end data transmission systems in unreliable unicast, multicast, or even peer-to-peer networks. In the last part of the talk I will introduce two classes of probabilistic Fountain codes that are used in commercial systems today. These codes, called LT- and Raptor codes, have very efficient encoding and decoding algorithms. I will introduce the mathematical theory of these codes and give some insights into their design.

Key Attack on the ACDGV Matrix Encryption Scheme
Orateur : Anmoal Porwal - Technical University of Munich
I will present our key-recovery attack on the ACDGV public-key encryption scheme proposed at ASIACRYPT 2024 by Aragon, Couvreur, Dyseryn, Gaborit, and Vinçotte. The secret key is a Gabidulin code hidden by appending random rows and columns and by left- and right-multiplication with invertible matrices. Our attack exploits the resulting algebraic structure to recover an equivalent secret key. It[…]-

Module Learning With Errors and Structured Extrapolated Dihedral Cosets
Orateur : Jinwei Zheng - Télécom Paris
The Module Learning With Errors (MLWE) problem is the fundamental hardness assumption underlying the key encapsulation and signature schemes ML-KEM and ML-DSA, which have been selected by NIST for post-quantum cryptography standardization. Understanding its quantum hardness is crucial for assessing the security of these standardized schemes. Inspired by the equivalence between LWE and[…]-
