Description for Algebraic Geometry in Coding Theory and Cryptography
Hardback. Offering graduate students with the necessary theoretical tools for applying algebraic geometry to information theory, this title covers primary applications in coding theory and cryptography. It includes a discussion of the interplay between nonsingular projective curves and algebraic function fields over finite fields. Num Pages: 272 pages. BIC Classification: RG. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 243 x 165 x 24. Weight in Grams: 548.
This textbook equips graduate students and advanced undergraduates with the necessary theoretical tools for applying algebraic geometry to information theory, and it covers primary applications in coding theory and cryptography. Harald Niederreiter and Chaoping Xing provide the first detailed discussion of the interplay between nonsingular projective curves and algebraic function fields over finite fields. This interplay is fundamental to research in the field today, yet until now no other textbook has featured complete proofs of it. Niederreiter and Xing cover classical applications like algebraic-geometry codes and elliptic-curve cryptosystems as well as material not treated by other books, including function-field codes, ...

Reviews for Algebraic Geometry in Coding Theory and Cryptography
"Coding theory has a rapidly growing corpus of knowledge, and now appears explicitly in several classifications in the MSC. [This] book ... is certainly an important addition to the literature in this area and a serious candidate for becoming one of the standard textbooks in related courses."
