The braid group is an important non commutative group, at the same time, it is an important tool in quantum field theory with better topological structure, and often used as a research carrier for anti-quantum cryptographic algorithms. This…
In this paper, a new key-agreement scheme is proposed and analyzed. In addition to being provably secure in shared secret key indistinguishability model, the scheme has an interesting feature: while using exponentiation over a cyclic…
We define the notion of accessibility for a pro-$p$ group. We prove that finitely generated pro-$p$ groups are accessible given a bound on the size of their finite subgroups. We then construct a finitely generated inaccessible pro-$p$…
Secret sharing schemes based on the idea of hidden multipliers in encryption are proposed. As a platform, one can use both multiplicative groups of finite fields and groups of invertible elements of commutative rings, in particular,…

In the recently emerging field of group-based cryptography, the Conjugacy Search Problem (CSP) has gained traction as a non-commutative replacement of the Discrete Log Problem (DLP). The problem of finding a secure class of nonabelian…
We enumerate the fibres of commutator word maps over p-groups of nilpotency class less than p with exponent p. We also give some examples and enumerate the fibre sizes of all word maps over p-groups of class 2 with exponent p.
This paper studies the MOR cryptosystem, using the automorphism group of the extra-special $p$-group of exponent $p$, for an odd prime $p$. Similar results can be obtained for extra-special $p$-groups of exponent $p^2$ and for the even…
In this paper we study multilinear morphisms between commutative group schemes and the associated tensor constructions. We will also do some explicit calculations and give examples that show that this theory behaves in a way that one would…
Non-local boxes are hypothetical ``machines'' that give rise to superstrong non-local correlations, leading to a stronger violation of Bell/CHSH inequalities than is possible within the framework of quantum mechanics. We show how non-local…
We propose modifications of known quasigroup based stream ciphers. Systems of orthogonal n-ary groupoids are used.
I study two privacy-preserving social network graphs to dis- close the types of relationships of connecting edges and provide flexible multigrained access control. To create such graphs, my schemes employ the concept of secretaries and…
Networks of quantum sensors are a central application of burgeoning quantum networks. A key question for the use of such networks will be their security, particularly against malicious participants of the network. We introduce a protocol to…
The theoretically proven security of quantum key distribution (QKD) could revolutionise how information exchange is protected in the future. Several field tests of QKD have proven it to be a reliable technology for cryptographic key…
The rapid advancement of quantum technologies calls for the design and deployment of quantum-safe cryptographic protocols and communication networks. There are two primary approaches to achieving quantum-resistant security: quantum key…
One particular approach to quantum groups (matrix pseudo groups) provides the Manin quantum plane. Assuming an appropriate set of non-commuting variables spanning linearly a representation space one is able to show that the endomorphisms on…
Quantum key distribution, which allows two distant parties to share an unconditionally secure cryptographic key, promises to play an important role in the future of communication. For this reason such technique has attracted many…
One of the aims of this paper is to obtain structural results showing that powerful subgroups are abundant in pro-$p$ groups admitting certain powerful quotients. In particular, we obtain an analogue of Baer's theorem for powerful pro-$p$…
A new open spin chain hamiltonian is introduced. It is both integrable (Sklyanin`s type $K$ matrices are used to achieve this) and invariant under ${\cal U}_{\epsilon}(sl(2))$ transformations in nilpotent irreps for $\epsilon^3=1$. Some…
Secret sharing is a multi-party cryptographic primitive that can be applied to a network of partially distrustful parties for encrypting data that is both sensitive (it must remain secure) and important (it must not be lost or destroyed).…
