Théorie de l'information

This sequence will be about the error-correcting capacity of a linear code. We describe the way of considering the space Fq^n as a metric space. This metric is necessary to justify the principle of

In this third session, we will present the most important concept of the week: Information Set Decoding. The problem of decoding is not only a combinatorial problem. Because we are dealing with

All the results that we have seen this week doesn't mean that code based cryptography is broken. So in this session we will see that Goppa code still resists to all these attacks. So recall that

The process of correcting errors and obtaining back the message is called decoding. In this sequence, we will focus on this process, the decoding. We would like that the decoder of the received

In this session, I will present the main technique to make the analysis of the various algorithms presented in this course. So, Information Set Decoding refers to a family of algorithms which is

Welcome to the last week of this MOOC on code-based cryptography. This week, we will be discussing other cryptographic constructions relying on coding theory. We have seen how to do public key

L'Internet a une histoire d'une trentaine d'années… Comment est-il né, comment s'est-il développé, comment va-t-il évoluer dans un futur proche et lointain ? L'Internet est un réseau de réseaux d

Reed-Solomon codes were introduced by Reed and Solomon in the 1960s. These codes are still used in storage device, from compact-disc player to deep-space application. And they are widely used

In this fifth session, we will study a variant of information set decoding proposed by Lee and Brickell. So, the main idea consists in relaxing the Prange algorithm to amortize the cost of the

In this session, I am going to present the Courtois-Finiasz-Sendrier Construction of a code-based digital signature. In the previous session, we have seen that it is impossible to hash a document

Le Web est une banque de données universelle, accessible gratuitement à toute personne ayant un ordinateur et une connexion Internet. Sa taille est estimée aujourd'hui à 1 milliard de pages et devrait

In this session, we will talk about another family of codes that have an efficient decoding algorithm: the Goppa codes. One limitation of the generalized Reed-Solomon codes is the fact that the
