We had recently shown that every positive integer can be represented uniquely using a recurrence sequence, when certain restrictions on the digit strings are satisfied. We present the details of how such representations can be used to build…
We present an approach to generalization of practical Identity-Based Encryption scheme of Boneh and Franklin. In particular we show how the protocol could be used on finite modular lattices and as a special case on vector spaces over finite…
In this paper, algorithms for multivariate public key cryptography and digital signature are described. Plain messages and encrypted messages are arrays, consisting of elements from a fixed finite ring or field. The encryption and…
We introduce the notion of a conditional encryption scheme as an extension of public key encryption. In addition to the standard public key algorithms ($\mathsf{KG}$, $\mathsf{Enc}$, $\mathsf{Dec}$) for key generation, encryption and…
This paper provides a simple variation of the basic ideas of the BB84 quantum cryptographic scheme leading to a method of key expansion. A secure random sequence (the bases sequence) determines the encoding bases in a proposed scheme. Using…
Cyclic codes, as linear block error-correcting codes in coding theory, play a vital role and have wide applications. Ding in \cite{D} constructed a number of classes of cyclic codes from almost perfect nonlinear (APN) functions and planar…
We construct three public key knapsack cryptosystems. Standard knapsack cryptosystems hide easy instances of the knapsack problem and have been broken. The systems considered in the article face this problem: They hide a random (possibly…
This paper introduces a new public key cryptosystem based on two hard problems : the cube root extraction modulo a composite moduli (which is equivalent to the factorisation of the moduli) and the discrete logarithm problem. These two hard…
In a recent paper, Tang and Ding introduced a class of binary cyclic codes of rate close to one half with a designed lower bound on their minimum distance. The definition involves the base $2$ expansion of the integers in their defining…
Binary field extensions are fundamental to many applications, such as multivariate public key cryptography, code-based cryptography, and error-correcting codes. Their implementation requires a foundation in number theory and algebraic…
In network coding, a flag code is a set of sequences of nested subspaces of $\mathbb{F}_q^n$, being $\mathbb{F}_q$ the finite field with $q$ elements. Flag codes defined as orbits of a cyclic subgroup of the general linear group acting on…
A new computational private information retrieval (PIR) scheme based on random linear codes is presented. A matrix of messages from a McEliece scheme is used to query the server with carefully chosen errors. The server responds with the sum…
The most known of public key cryptosystem was introduced in 1978 by Rivest, Shamir and Adleman [19] and now called the RSA public key cryptosystem in their honor. Later, a few authors gave a simply extension of RSA over algebraic numbers…
The improvements on quantum technology are threatening our daily cybersecurity, as a capable quantum computer can break all currently employed asymmetric cryptosystems. In preparation for the quantum-era the National Institute of Standards…
The rings $Z_{4}+\nu Z_{4}$ have been classified into chain rings and non-chain rings on the basis of the values of $\nu^{2} \in Z_{4}+\nu Z_{4}.$ In this paper, the structure of cyclic codes of arbitrary length over the rings $Z_{4}+\nu…
Whilst lattice-based cryptosystems are believed to be resistant to quantum attack, they are often forced to pay for that security with inefficiencies in implementation. This problem is overcome by ring- and module-based schemes such as…
In this paper we introduce the notion of cyclic ($f(t),\sigma,\delta$)-codes for $f(t)\in \Ore$. These codes generalize the $\theta$-codes as introduced by D. Boucher, F. Ulmer, W. Geiselmann \cite{BGU}. We construct generic and control…
Two generalizations of the Hartmann--Tzeng (HT) bound on the minimum distance of q-ary cyclic codes are proposed. The first one is proven by embedding the given cyclic code into a cyclic product code. Furthermore, we show that unique…
We present the Foundational Cryptography Framework (FCF) for developing and checking complete proofs of security for cryptographic schemes within a proof assistant. This is a general-purpose framework that is capable of modeling and…
The family of cycle completable graphs has several cryptomorphic descriptions, the equivalence of which has heretofore been proven by a laborious implication-cycle that detours through a motivating matrix completion problem. We give a…
