Description
Abstract:
Post-quantum cryptography is a branch of cryptography which relies on
problems which we believe are still hard even if one has access to
quantum computers
(currently used cryptosystems, such as RSA do not fulfill this
requirement). Isogeny-based crypography relies on the hardness of
computing rational maps between
certain types of elliptic curves over finite fields. In this talk we
give an introduction to elliptic curves over finite fields and their
applications to post-quantum cryptography.
I will give an overview of the field (which is relatevely new), share
some recent results and open problems which are of number theoretical
interest.
