Description
This talk is about joint work with David Lubicz. By a classical result of Serre and Tate the deformation space of an ordinary abelian variety is given by a formal torus. In Serre-Tate coordinates the problem of canonical lifting is trivial. Unfortunately, in general it is difficult to compute the Serre-Tate parameters of a given abelian variety. Alternatively, one may use canonical coordinates which are induced by a canonical theta structure. Mumford introduced theta structures in order to construct an arithmetic moduli space of abelian varieties. We apply a multi-variate Hensel lifting procedure to a certain set of p-adic theta identities which are obtained using Mumford's formalism of algebraic theta functions. As an application we give a point counting algorithm for ordinary abelian varieties over a finite field which is quasi-quadratic in the degree of the finite field.

Verification of Rust Cryptographic Implementations with Aeneas
Orateur : Aymeric Fromherz - Inria
From secure communications to online banking, cryptography is the cornerstone of most modern secure applications. Unfortunately, cryptographic design and implementation is notoriously error-prone, with a long history of design flaws, implementation bugs, and high-profile attacks. To address this issue, several projects proposed the use of formal verification techniques to statically ensure the[…] -
On the average hardness of SIVP for module lattices of fixed rank
Orateur : Radu Toma - Sorbonne Université
In joint work with Koen de Boer, Aurel Page, and Benjamin Wesolowski, we study the hardness of the approximate Shortest Independent Vectors Problem (SIVP) for random module lattices. We use here a natural notion of randomness as defined originally by Siegel through Haar measures. By proving a reduction, we show it is essentially as hard as the problem for arbitrary instances. While this was[…] -
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[…]-
