Workshop on Code-Based Post-Quantum Cryptography

Workshop on Code-Based Post-Quantum Cryptography

13 Novembre 2024, ore 10:00-12:00

Designing, analyzing and optimizing Code-based schemes are timely topics in the context of Post-Quantum Cryptography. Many schemes are currently under investigation, and many researchers have recently focused their attention on digital signatures based on difficult problems related to Coding Theory, such as the problems of decoding and the problem of determining whether two codes are equivalent. In this workshop we discuss recent results on the difficulty of code-based problems and on the security of schemes leveraging them. Some of these schemes are competing for NIST's selection and standardization process.

Invited Talks:

• Michele Battagliola (Università Politecnica delle Marche): Cutting the GRASS: Threshold GRoup Action Signature Schemes

• Giuseppe D’Alconzo (Politecnico di Torino): On the Sample Complexity of Code Equivalence Problems

• Alessio Meneghetti (Università di Trento): Information Set Decoding for Code-based Cryptography: beyond Finite Fields

• Paolo Santini (Università Politecnica delle Marche): Canonical Forms and Short Signatures from the Code Equivalence Problem

• Edoardo Signorini (Telsy): Security of Fixed-Weight Repetitions of Special-Sound Multi-Round Interactive Proofs
