Description
The "learning with errors'' (LWE) problem is to distinguish random linear equations, which have been perturbed by a small amount of noise, from truly uniform ones. The problem has been shown to be as hard as worst-case lattice problems, and in recent years it has served as the foundation for a plethora of cryptographic applications. Unfortunately, these applications are rather inefficient due to an inherent quadratic overhead in the use of LWE. A main open question was whether LWE and its applications could be made truly efficient by exploiting extra algebraic structure, as was done for lattice-based hash functions and related primitives.<br/> We resolve this question in the affirmative by introducing an algebraic variant of LWE called ring-LWE, and proving that it too enjoys very strong hardness guarantees. Specifically, we show that the ring-LWE distribution is *pseudorandom*, assuming that worst-case problems on ideal lattices are hard for polynomial-time quantum algorithms. This is joint work with Chris Peikert and Oded Regev that appeared at Eurocrypt 2010.

!!! Reporté !!! Encryption homomorphe sans bruit à l'aide de groupes
Orateur : Pierre Guillot - Ravel Technologies (dispo Université de Strasbourg, IRMA)
Je vais rappeler les travaux de Nuida et Ostrovski sur l'utilisation des groupes pour l'élaboration de schémas cryptographiques homomorphes. Je vais présenter nos travaux qui fournissent des encodages à la fois plus efficaces et plus généraux, et qui déterminent exactement quels groupes peuvent être utilisés. Puis je vais discuter GRAFHEN, un protocole qui utilise ces idées. Je dirai juste[…]-

MIKE: An efficient and compact NIKE Based on a Commutative Monoidal Action
Orateur : Jonathan Komada Eriksen - COSIC, KU Leuven
Robert recently described a powerful correspondence between certain (Hermitian) modules and (polarized) abelian varieties, which simultaneously generalizes both the class-group action underlying protocols such as CSIDH, and the Deuring correspondence, underlying protocols such as SQIsign. Using this correspondence, he also proposed how to construct a post-quantum NIKE, called MIKE, which, at a[…]-
