Series on Number Theory and Its Applications - Vol. 5

ALGEBRAIC GEOMETRY AND ITS APPLICATIONS
Dedicated to Gilles Lachaud on His 60th Birthday
Proceedings of the First SAGA Conference

Papeete, France 7 - 11 May 2007

edited by Jean Chaumine (University of French Polynesia, France), James Hirschfeld (University of Sussex, UK) & Robert Rolland (University of Méditerranée, France)

This volume covers many topics, including number theory, Boolean functions, combinatorial geometry, and algorithms over finite fields. It contains many new, theoretical and applicable results, as well as surveys that were presented by the top specialists in these areas. New results include an answer to one of Serre's questions, posted in a letter to Top; cryptographic applications of the discrete logarithm problem related to elliptic curves and hyperelliptic curves; construction of function field towers; construction of new classes of Boolean cryptographic functions; and algorithmic applications of algebraic geometry.
