Description
The general number field sieve (GNFS) is the most efficient algorithm known for factoring large integers. It consists of several stages, the first one being polynomial selection. The running-time of the number field sieve depends on the quality of the chosen polynomials. The quality of the chosen polynomials can be modeled in terms of size and root properties. In this talk, we will describe some better algorithms to select polynomials with good size and root properties.<br/> The talk will be based on papers, Shi Bai, Cyril Bouvier, Alexander Kruppa and Paul Zimmermann. Better polynomials for GNFS. Math. Comp, 2015.<br/> Shi Bai, Richard Brent and Emmanuel Thomé. Root optimization of polynomials in the number field sieve. Math. Comp, 2015.

CryptoVerif: a computationally-sound security protocol verifier
Speaker : Bruno Blanchet - Inria
CryptoVerif is a security protocol verifier sound in the computational model of cryptography. It produces proofs by sequences of games, like those done manually by cryptographers. It has an automatic proof strategy and can also be guided by the user. It provides a generic method for specifying security assumptions on many cryptographic primitives, and can prove secrecy, authentication, and[…]-
