This self-contained introduction to modern cryptography emphasizes the mathematics behind the theory of public key cryptosystems and digital signature schemes. The book focuses on these key topics while developing the mathematical tools needed for the construction and security analysis of diverse cryptosystems. Only basic linear algebra is required of the reader; techniques from algebra, number theory, and probability are introduced and developed as required. This text provides an ideal introduction for mathematics and computer science students to the mathematical foundations of modern cryptography. The book includes an extensive bibliography and index; supplementary materials are available online. The ... Read more

Reviews for An Introduction to Mathematical Cryptography
This book explains the mathematical foundations of public key cryptography in a mathematically correct and thorough way without omitting important practicalities. ... I would like to emphasize that the book is very well written and quite clear. Topics are well motivated, and there are a good number of examples and nicely chosen exercises. To me, this book is still the ... Read more
