Post-quantum cryptography is a branch of cryptography which deals with cryptographic algorithms whose hardness assumptions are not based on problems known to be solvable by a quantum computer, such as the RSA problem, factoring or discrete logarithms.

Let f(z)=q+∑n≥2a(n)qn be a weight k normalized newform with integer coefficients and trivial residual mod 2 Galois representation. We extend the results of Amir and Hong in Amir and Hong (On L-functions of modular elliptic curves and certain K3 surfaces, R ...
Huntington's disease (HD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder caused by an expansion of a CAG triplet repeat (encoding for a polyglutamine tract) within the first exon of the huntingtin gene. Expression of the mutant huntingtin (mHTT) protein can r ...
We prove nontrivial bounds for general bilinear forms in hyper-Kloosterman sums when the sizes of both variables may be below the range controlled by Fourier-analytic methods (Polya-Vinogradov range). We then derive applications to the second moment of cus ...
We derive a Motohashi-type formula for the cubic moment of central values of -functions of level cusp forms twisted by quadratic characters of conductor , previously studied by Conrey and Iwaniec and Young. Corollaries of this formula include Weyl-subconve ...
In this paper we present a new multiplication algorithm for residues modulo the Mersenne prime 2521−1. Using this approach, on an Intel Haswell Core i7-4770, constant-time variable-base scalar multiplication on NIST’s (and SECG’s) curve P-521 requires ...
We take an approach toward Counting the number of integers n for which the curve (n),: y(2) = x(3) - n(2)x has 2-Selmer groups of a given size. This question was also discussed in a pair of papers by Roger Heath-Brown. In contrast to earlier work, our anal ...
The M2 protein of the influenza A virus is activated by low endosomal pH and performs the essential function of proton transfer into the viral interior. The resulting decrease in pH within the virion is essential for the uncoating and further replication o ...
This article presents optimization results on the MOVA undeniable signature scheme presented last year by Monnerat and Vaudenay at PKC'04 as well as its generalization proposed at Asiacrypt'04 which is based on a secret group homomorphism. The original MOV ...
