Description
The Polynomial Modular Number System (PMNS) is an integer number system that aims to speed up arithmetic operations modulo a prime number p. This system is defined by a tuple (p, n, g, r, E), where p, n, g and r are positive integers, and E is a polynomial with integer coefficients, having g as a root modulo p.
Arithmetic operations in PMNS rely heavily on Euclidean lattices. Modular reduction in this system is done using a lattice of zeros L (here, the set of polynomials in Z[X], with degrees smaller than n, having g as a root modulo p).
Many works have shown that the PMNS can be an efficient alternative to the classical representation for modular arithmetic and cryptographic size integers.
In this presentation, we first present the PMNS and its arithmetic. Next, we introduce new properties of the lattice L, regarding a Montgomery-like coefficient reduction method. Then, we study the redundancy in the PMNS and explain how to choose the parameters for the desired redundancy in the system. Finally, we show how to use some properties of Euclidean lattices for efficient modular arithmetic and equality test within the PMNS.

Attacking the Supersingular Isogeny Problem: From the Delfs–Galbraith algorithm to oriented graphs
Orateur : Arthur Herlédan Le Merdy - COSIC, KU Leuven
The threat of quantum computers motivates the introduction of new hard problems for cryptography.One promising candidate is the Isogeny problem: given two elliptic curves, compute a “nice’’ map between them, called an isogeny.In this talk, we study classical attacks on this problem, specialised to supersingular elliptic curves, on which the security of current isogeny-based cryptography relies.

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[…] -
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[…]-
