Description for Algebraic Aspects of Cryptography
Hardback. This textbook on cryptography emphasizes algebraic methods. The first half of the book is a self-contained informal introduction to number theory and computer science used in cryptography. The second half examines "hidden monomial" systems and hyperelliptic systems. Series: Algorithms and Computation in Mathematics. Num Pages: 215 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PBF; PBW; URD; URY; UYA. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 166 x 243 x 18. Weight in Grams: 486.
This book is intended as a text for a course on cryptography with emphasis on algebraic methods. It is written so as to be accessible to graduate or advanced undergraduate students, as well as to scientists in other fields. The first three chapters form a self-contained introduction to basic concepts and techniques. Here my approach is intuitive and informal. For example, the treatment of computational complexity in Chapter 2, while lacking formalistic rigor, emphasizes the aspects of the subject that are most important in cryptography. Chapters 4-6 and the Appendix contain material that for the most part has not previously ... Read more

Reviews for Algebraic Aspects of Cryptography
"... This is a textbook in cryptography with emphasis on algebraic methods. It is supported by many exercises (with answers) making it appropriate for a course in mathematics or computer science. ... Overall, this is an excellent expository text, and will be very useful to both the student and researcher." M.V.D.Burmester, Mathematical Reviews 2002 "... ... Read more
