Summary

This book is intended as a text for a course on cryptography with emphasis on algebraic methods. A novel feature is the inclusion of three types of cryptography - "hidden monomial" systems, combinatorial-algebraic sys­ tems, and hyperelliptic systems - that are at an early stage of development.

Algebraic Aspects of Cryptography by Aj Menezes

From the reviews: 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. Mathematical Reviews

".. 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

"... I think this book is a very inspiring book on cryptography. It goes beyond the traditional topics (most of the cryptosystems presented here are first time in a textbook, some of Paturi's work is not published yet). This way the reader has the feeling how easy to suggest a cryptosystem, how easy to break a safe looking system and hence how hard to trust one. The interested readers are forced to think together with ther researchers and feel the joy of discovering new ideas. At the same time the importance of "hardcore" mathematics is emphasized and hopefully some application driven students will be motivated to study theory."

Péter Hajnal, Acta Scientiarum Mathematicarum, 64.1998, p. 750

"... Overall, the book is highly recommended to everyone who has the requisite mathematical sophistication."

E.Leiss, Computing Reviews 1998, p. 506

"... Der Autor, der ... vielen Lesern dieses Rundbriefs gut bekannt sein wird, hat hier ein kleines Werk vorgelegt, das man wohl am Besten als "Lesebuch zu algebraischen Aspekten der Kryptographie mit öffentlichem Schlüssel" charakterisieren kann. ...

Mit zunehmender Schwierigkeit des Material werden die Ausführungen dabei skizzenhafter und beschränken sich immer stärker auf den Hinweis auf entsprechende Quellen, was den Charakter eines guten "Lesebuchs", wie ich es oben bezeichnet habe, ausmachen sollte. Das Buch eignet sich damit selbst für "advanced undergraduates", wie es im Klappentext heißt, als Einstieg und erster Überblick über ein Gebiet, in dem sich in den letzten Jahren auf überraschendeWeise praktische Anwendungsmöglichkeiten für tief innermathematische Themen ergeben haben."

Hans-Gert Gräbe, Computeralgebra Rundbrief 1999, Issue 25

"... Es gelingt Koblitz, anschaulich und mit elementaren Mitteln auch Dinge zu erläutern, die in vergleichbaren Texten kaum zu finden sind: z.B. den Hilbertschen Basis- und Nullstellensatz, sowie Gröbnerbasen. ..."
