L'algorithme XL est un algorithme utilisé en cryptographie pour déterminer une solution d'un système polynômial dans un corps fini. Cet algorithme est assez efficace : il peut en effet résoudre des cryptosystèmes engendrés par des registres filtrés en temps polynômial avec un nombre de couple clair-chiffré polynômial en la taille de la clef.<br/> Il existait auparavant différents algorithmes de résolution de systèmes polynômiaux comme le calcul des bases de Gröbner. Nous allons tout d'abord nous intéresser à certains algorithmes de calcul des bases de Gröbner pour comprendre les calculs effectuées et les critères développés. Puis, nous verrons la structure de l'algorithme XL et les remarques faites par l'auteur sur cet algorithme. Enfin, nous étudierons ce que calcul exactement l'algorithme XL du point de vue des bases de Gröbner et proposerons un algorithme émulé utilisant le calcul de bases de Gröbner. A partir de cet algorithme émulé, nous effectuerons des comparaisons sur le cryptosystème HFE.

    Speaker : Charles Meyer-Hilfiger - Inria Rennes

    The hardness of the decoding problem and its generalization, the learning with errors problem, are respectively at the heart of the security of the Post-Quantum code-based scheme HQC and the lattice-based scheme Kyber. Both schemes are to be/now NIST standards. These problems have been actively studied for decades, and the complexity of the state-of-the-art algorithms to solve them is crucially[…]

    Speaker : Augustin Bariant - ANSSI

    Ultra-fast AES round-based software cryptographic authentication/encryption primitives have recently seen important developments, fuelled by the authenticated encryption competition CAESAR and the prospect of future high-profile applications such as post-5G telecommunication technology security standards. In particular, Universal Hash Functions (UHF) are crucial primitives used as core components[…]

    Speaker : Mingjie Chen - KU Leuven

    In 2006, de Graaf et al. proposed a strategy based on Lie algebras for finding a linear transformation in the projective linear group that connects two linearly equivalent projective varieties defined over the rational numbers. Their method succeeds for several families of “classical” varieties, such as Veronese varieties, which are known to have large automorphism groups.   In this talk, we[…]

  • Some applications of linear programming to Dilithium

    • November 14, 2025 (13:45 - 14:45)

    Speaker : Paco AZEVEDO OLIVEIRA - Thales & UVSQ

    Dilithium is a signature algorithm, considered post-quantum, and recently standardized under the name ML-DSA by NIST. Due to its security and performance, it is recommended in most use cases.   During this presentation, I will outline the main ideas behind two studies, conducted in collaboration with Andersson Calle-Vierra, Benoît Cogliati, and Louis Goubin, which provide a better understanding of[…]
