Description
In this talk, we focus on class group computations in number fields. We start by describing an algorithm for reducing the size of a defining polynomial of a number field. There exist infinitely many polynomials that define a specific number field, with arbitrarily large coefficients, but our algorithm constructs the one that has the absolutely smallest coefficients. The advantage of knowing such a ``small'' defining polynomial is that it makes calculations in the number field easier because smaller values are involved. In addition, thanks to such a small polynomial, one can use specific algorithms that are more efficient than the general ones for class group computations.<br/> The generic algorithm to determine the structure of a class group is based on ideal reduction, where ideals are viewed as lattices. We describe and simplify the algorithm presented by Biasse and Fieker in 2014 at ANTS and provide a more thorough complexity analysis for it. We also examine carefully the case of number fields defined by a polynomial with small coefficients. We describe an algorithm similar to the Number Field Sieve, which, depending on the field parameters, may reach the hope for complexity L(1/3). Finally, our results can be adapted to solve an associated problem: the Principal Ideal Problem. Given any basis of a principal ideal (generated by a unique element), we are able to find such a generator. As this problem, known to be hard, is the key-point in several homomorphic cryptosystems, the slight modifications of our algorithms provide efficient attacks against these cryptographic schemes.

Random lattices that are modules over the ring of integers
Orateur : Nihar Gargava - Institut de Mathématiques d'Orsay
We investigate the average number of lattice points within a ball where the lattice is chosen at random from the set of unit determinant ideal or modules lattices of some cyclotomic number field. The goal is to consider the space of such lattice as a probabilistic space and then study the distribution of lattice point counts. This is inspired by the connections of this problem to lattice-based[…]-

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[…] -
