A Reduction Theory for Codes and Lattices in Cryptography

Codes and lattices are two major mathematical platforms to build quantum-resistant cryptosystems. Theose cryptosystems will soon be standardized and deployed, replacing historical solutions threatened by Shor's quantum algorithm. These new cryptosystems rely on the hardness of finding short vectors in a code or in a lattice, a computational problem called reduction. Our confidence in their security relies on the relentless effort of cryptanalysis: quantifying, elucidating and trying to invalidate such hardness assumptions. *My ERC project aims at discovering faster cryptanalytic algorithms and at building better cryptography via the development of a unified reduction theory enabling a…
