Applications of Bilinear Maps in Cryptography
(University of Waterloo, 2002)It was recently discovered by Joux [30] and Sakai, Ohgishi and Kasahara [47] that bilinear maps could be used to construct cryptographic schemes. Since then, bilinear maps have been used in applications as varied as ... -
Classical and Quantum Algorithms for Isogeny-based Cryptography
(University of Waterloo, 2015-09-30)Isogeny-based cryptography using supersingular elliptic curves --- most prominently, the constructions of De Feo-Jao-Plut --- is one of the few practical candidates for post-quantum public key cryptography. Its formidable ... -
Generalized GCDs as Applications of Vojta’s Conjecture
(University of Waterloo, 2023-08-31)Starting with an analysis of the result that for any coprime integers a and b, and some ϵ > 0, we have eventually that gcd(a^n − 1,b^n − 1) < a^ϵn holds for all n, we are motivated to look for geometric reasons why this ...
