    Lakhdar Sais - CRIL Lens

Le problème NP-complet classique de la satisfiabilité d'une formule Booléenne mise sous forme normale conjonctive a connu un intérêt croissant non seulement dans la communauté d'informatique théorique, mais aussi dans des domaines d'applications divers ou une solution pratique à ce problème permet des avancées significatives. Depuis les premiers développements de la procédure de base proposée par Davis, Putnam, Logemann et Loveland (DPLL), il y a plus d'une quarantaine d'années, ce domaine a connu un effort de recherche croissant ayant abouti aux solveurs SAT modernes d'aujourd'hui, capable de résoudre des instances de plusieurs centaines de milliers et même de millions de variables. Dans cet exposé, nous examinerons les idées principales ayant permis ce passage à l'échelle et nous évoquerons quelques directions possibles pour des recherches futures.

    Speaker : Marie Bolzer - LORIA

    The problem of finding a minimal circuit to implement a given function is one of the oldest in electronics. In cryptography, the focus is on small functions, especially on S-boxes which are classically the only non-linear functions in iterated block ciphers. In this work, we propose new ad-hoc automatic tools to look for lightweight implementations of non-linear functions on up to 5 variables for[…]

    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[…]

    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[…]
