Description
Our main result is a reduction from worst-case lattice problems such as SVP and SIVP to a certain learning problem. This learning problem is a natural extension of the `learning from parity with error' problem to higher moduli. It can also be viewed as the problem of decoding from a random linear code. This, we believe, gives a strong indication that these problems are hard. Our reduction, however, is quantum. Hence, an efficient solution to the learning problem implies a _quantum_ algorithm for SVP and SIVP. A main open question is whether this reduction can be made classical. Using the main result, we obtain a public-key cryptosystem whose hardness is based on the worst-case quantum hardness of SVP and SIVP. Previous lattice-based public-key cryptosystems such as the one by Ajtai and Dwork were only based on unique-SVP, a special case of SVP. The new cryptosystem is much more efficient than previous cryptosystems: the public key is of size \tilde{O}(n) and encrypting a message increases its size by \tilde{O}(n) (in previous cryptosystems these values are \tilde{O}(n^4) and \tilde{O}(n^2), respectively).

Endomorphisms via Splittings
Orateur : 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[…]-

Schéma de signature à clé publique : Frobénius-UOV
Orateur : Gilles Macario-Rat - Orange
L'exposé présente un schéma de signature à clé publique post-quantique inspiré du schéma UOV et introduisant un nouvel outil : les formes de Frobénius. L'accent est mis sur le rôle et les propriétés des formes de Frobénius dans ce nouveau schéma : la simplicité de description, la facilité de mise en oeuvre et le gain inédit sur les tailles de signature et de clé qui bat RSA-2048 au niveau de[…]
