Another threat is the development of large quantum computers, which have a high likelihood of breaking the high popular security protocols because it can use both Shor and Grover algorithms. In order to fix this looming threat,…
Supersingular elliptic curve $\ell$-isogeny graphs over finite fields offer a setting for a number of quantum-resistant cryptographic protocols. The security analysis of these schemes typically assumes that these graphs behave randomly.…
Given a graph $G$, and terminal vertices $s$ and $t$, the TRACKING PATHS problem asks to compute a minimum number of vertices to be marked as trackers, such that the sequence of trackers encountered in each s-t path is unique. TRACKING…
The mim-width of a graph is a powerful structural parameter that, when bounded by a constant, allows several hard problems to be polynomial-time solvable - with a recent meta-theorem encompassing a large class of problems [SODA2023]. Since…
Recently the AAGL (Anshel-Anshel-Goldfeld-Lemieux) has been proposed which can be used for RFID tags. We give algorithms for the problem (we call the MSCSPv) on which the security of the AAGL protocol is based upon. Hence we give various…
The disjoint paths problem asks, given an graph G and k + 1 pairs of terminals (s_0,t_0), ...,(s_k,t_k), whether there are k+1 pairwise disjoint paths P_0, ...,P_k, such that P_i connects s_i to t_i. Robertson and Seymour have proven that…

Computational hardness assumption from the syndrome decoding problem has been useful in designing the security of code based cryptosystem that are safe against quantum computing. Due to complexities in solution using high degree linearized…

Most of the existing signcryption schemes generate pseudonym by key generation center (KGC) and usually choose bilinear pairing to construct authentication schemes. The drawback is that these schemes not only consume heavy computation and…
We consider the Shallow-Light Steiner Network problem from a fixed-parameter perspective. Given a graph $G$, a distance bound $L$, and $p$ pairs of vertices $(s_1,t_1),\cdots,(s_p,t_p)$, the objective is to find a minimum-cost subgraph $G'$…
The development of large quantum computers will have dire consequences for cryptography. Most of the symmetric and asymmetric cryptographic algorithms are vulnerable to quantum algorithms. Grover's search algorithm gives a square root time…
Confidentiality in our digital world is based on the security of cryptographic algorithms. These are usually executed transparently in the background, with people often relying on them without further knowledge. In the course of…
The graph isomorphism (GI) problem, which asks whether two graphs are structurally identical, occupies a unique position in computational complexity -- it is neither known to be solvable in polynomial time, nor proven to be NP-complete. We…
Secure aggregation enables aggregation of inputs from multiple parties without revealing individual contributions to the server or other clients. Existing post-quantum approaches based on homomorphic encryption offer practical efficiency…
This thesis provides an explanation of L\'aszl\'o Babai's quasi-polynomial algorithm for the Graph Isomorphism Problem published in 2015 with a particular focus on the case of local certificates, i.e. the case that cannot be dealt with by…
A secure set $S$ in a graph is defined as a set of vertices such that for any $X\subseteq S$ the majority of vertices in the neighborhood of $X$ belongs to $S$. It is known that deciding whether a set $S$ is secure in a graph is…
The problem of PIR in graph-based replication systems has received significant attention in recent years. A systematic study was conducted by Sadeh, Gu, and Tamo, where each file is replicated across two servers and the storage topology is…
We prove essentially tight lower bounds, conditionally to the Exponential Time Hypothesis, for two fundamental but seemingly very different cutting problems on surface-embedded graphs: the Shortest Cut Graph problem and the Multiway Cut…
