Applied Algebra, Codes, and Cryptography Seminar
Weekly, Tuesdays 12–1 pm, on code-based and lattice-based cryptography
A venue for faculty and students interested in the intersections of algebra, number theory, coding theory, cryptography, and their applications. Meets weekly on Tuesdays, 12:00–1:00 pm, in FLN 4.01.20 (Large Conference Room, Mathematics Department).
The format is interactive rather than formal: alongside presentations, there is room to discuss open problems and related research questions. No prior background in post-quantum cryptography is required — faculty, graduate students, and undergraduates interested in these topics are all welcome.
This semester (Fall 2026) the focus is on two major directions in post-quantum cryptography: code-based and lattice-based cryptography, with particular emphasis on the Linear Code Equivalence Problem, the Lattice Isomorphism Problem, and the algebraic and structural connections between them.
