Description

  • Speaker

    Bart Preneel - University of Leuven

In this talk we discuss the state of the art and progress in cryptographic algorithms such as encryption algorithms and digital signature techniques. We present at a high level the challenges to the designers (and users) of cryptographic algorithms and we discuss the major components of the solution, that is, research, standardization, and open evaluation. We also discuss the status of the NESSIE project. NESSIE (New European Schemes for Signature, Integrity and Encryption) is a 40-month research project (2000-2003) which intends to put forward a new generation of strong cryptographic algorithms, which have been obtained after an open call and an open evaluation process. We will also discuss a number of open problems identified within the NESSIE project.

  • Cyclotomic Cosets: Hidden Subgroup and Quantum Sieving Algorithm for Prime-Power Moduli

    • November 06, 2026 (13:45 - 14:45)

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

    Speaker : Mathias Boucher - Université de Rennes

    The Dihedral Coset Problem (DCP), also known as the hidden shift problem, plays a fundamental role in post-quantum public-key cryptography, since the Learning-With-Error problem reduces to DCP. The “Simon meets Kuperberg” quantum algorithm by Bonnetain and Naya-Plasencia solves the DCP in quasi-polynomial time when the modulus is a power of two. We provide a generalization of this algorithm for[…]

  • Adelic reduction of module lattices

    • November 13, 2026 (13:45 - 14:45)

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

    Speaker : Henry Bambury - DGA-MI et Inria Rennes

    We give a strict generalisation of the LLL algorithm over number fields, based on the reduction theory of  $GL(n)$ over the adele ring of a number field. Our algorithm is free of heuristics, with rigorous bounds on output quality and complexity.   -- based on joint work with Seungki Kim, Changmin Lee and Phong Nguyen --

    A scientific day devoted to post-quantum cryptography, held in the wake of the European Cyber Week, with talks more technical than those presented at the ECW. The talks will take place at Amphi E in building 02A. To register for lunch, please do so before oct 30th using this link. 

  • Chiffrement homomorphe à l'aide des groupes après Nuida

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

    Speaker : Pierre Guillot - Ravel Technologies/Université de strasbourg

    Nuida et d'autres ont montré comment on peut obtenir un protocole de chiffrement pleinement homomorphe si l'on sait chiffrer les éléments d'un groupe G convenable, tout en sachant faire l'opération de G "en homomorphe".   Les exemples étaient jusqu'à présent limités au chiffrement d'un bit à la fois, avec beaucoup d'opérations à effectuer pour "simuler" les portes logiques usuelles. Je vais[…]
