    We investigate the average number of lattice points within a ball where the lattice is chosen at random from the set of unit determinant ideal or modules lattices of some cyclotomic number field. The goal is to consider the space of such lattice as a probabilistic space and then study the distribution of lattice point counts. This is inspired by the connections of this problem to lattice-based[…]

  • Post-Quantum Cryptography Accelerated by a Superscalar RISC-V Processor

    • April 24, 2026 (11:00 - 12:00)

    Speaker : Côme Allart - Inria

    Two major changes are currently taking place in the embedded processor ecosystem: open source with the RISC-V instruction set, which could replace the ARM one, and post-quantum cryptography (PQC), which could replace classic asymmetric cryptography algorithms to resist quantum computers.In this context, this thesis investigates the improvement of embedded processor performance, generally for[…]

  • Protection des processeurs modernes face à la vulnérabilité Spectre

    • April 24, 2026 (10:00 - 11:00)

    • IETR - University of Rennes - Campus de BEAULIEU - Bâtiment 11D, salle numéro 18

    Speaker : Herinomena ANDRIANATREHINA - Inria

    Dans la quête permanente d'une puissance de calcul plus rapide, les processeurs modernes utilisent des techniques permettant d'exploiter au maximum leurs ressources. Parmi ces techniques, l'exécution spéculative tente de prédire le résultat des instructions dont l'issue n'est pas encore connue, mais dont dépend la suite du programme. Cela permet au processeur d'éviter d'être inactif. Cependant,[…]

  • Endomorphisms via Splittings

    • April 10, 2026 (13:45 - 14:45)

    • IRMAR - Université de Rennes - Campus Beaulieu Bat. 22, RDC, Rennes - Amphi Lebesgue

    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[…]

  • Algorithms for post-quantum commutative group actions

    • March 27, 2026 (13:45 - 14:45)

    Speaker : Marc Houben - Inria Bordeaux

    At the historical foundation of isogeny-based cryptography lies a scheme known as CRS; a key exchange protocol based on class group actions on elliptic curves. Along with more efficient variants, such as CSIDH, this framework has emerged as a powerful building block for the construction of advanced post-quantum cryptographic primitives. Unfortunately, all protocols in this line of work are[…]
