We consider actions of a group or a semigroup on a set, which generalize the setup of discrete logarithm based cryptosystems. Such cryptographic group actions have gained increasing attention recently in the context of isogeny-based…

In this paper, we propose to use a skew dihedral group ring given by the group $D_{2n}$ and the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$ for public-key cryptography. Using the ambient space $\mathbb{F}_{q^{2}}^{\theta} D_{2n}$ and a group…

A generalization of the original Diffie-Hellman key exchange in $(\Z/p\Z)^*$ found a new depth when Miller and Koblitz suggested that such a protocol could be used with the group over an elliptic curve. In this paper, we propose a further…

In this work we provide a suite of protocols for group key management based on general semigroup actions. Construction of the key is made in a distributed and collaborative way. Examples are provided that may in some cases enhance the…

We describe the structure of $E-$dense acts over $E-$dense semigroups in an analogous way to that for inverse semigroup acts over inverse semigroups. This is based, to a large extent, on the work of Schein on representations of inverse…

It was recently demonstrated that the Matrix Action Key Exchange (MAKE) algorithm, a new type of key exchange protocol using the semidirect product of matrix groups, is vulnerable to a linear algebraic attack if the matrices are over a…

In this paper we study a special type of quasi-cyclic (QC) codes called skew QC codes. This set of codes is constructed using a non-commutative ring called the skew polynomial rings $F[x;\theta ]$. After a brief description of the skew…

The product formula for evaluating products of skew polynomials is used to construct a class of rings. As an application, we present a method of evaluating quotients of skew polynomials.

We introduce and study action of quantum groups on skew polynomial rings and related rings of quotients. This leads to a ``q-deformation'' of the Gel'fand-Kirillov conjecture which we partially prove. We propose a construction of…

We introduce partial group algebras with relations in a purely algebraic framework. Given a group and a set of relations, we define an algebraic partial action and prove that the resulting partial skew group ring is isomorphic to the…

We offer a public key exchange protocol based on a semidirect product of two cyclic (semi)groups of matrices over Z_p. One of the (semi)groups is additive, the other one multiplicative. This allows us to take advantage of both operations on…

In this survey, we describe a general key exchange protocol based on semidirect product of (semi)groups (more specifically, on extensions of (semi)groups by automorphisms), and then focus on practical instances of this general idea. This…

For a given inverse semigroup S , we introduce the notion of algebraic crossed product by using a given partial action of S, and we will prove that under some condition it is associative. Also we will introduce the concept of partial…

Let $D$ be a finite-dimensional division algebra over its center and $R=D[t;\sigma,\delta]$ a skew polynomial ring. Under certain assumptions on $\delta$ and $\sigma$, the ring of central quotients $D(t;\sigma,\delta) = \{f/g \,|\, f \in…
