The best generic tool currently known for attacking lattice-based cryptographic primitives is lattice reduction. Lattice reduction is a representation paradigm: it consists in finding a representation ...

Linearizability: The behavior of concurrent objects is best described through their safety and liveness properties, often referred to as correctness and progress. In this lecture, we examine various ...

Normalisation by Evaluation is a technique to efficiently compute the normal form of, possibly open, lambda terms with respect to beta reduction and rewrite rules. It works by compiling terms into ...
