Multivariate cryptography
Multivariate cryptography is the generic term for asymmetric cryptographic primitives based on multivariate polynomials over a finite field . In certain cases those polynomials could be defined over b
Unbalanced oil and vinegar scheme
In cryptography, the unbalanced oil and vinegar (UOV) scheme is a modified version of the oil and vinegar scheme designed by J. Patarin. Both are digital signature protocols. They are forms of multiva
QUAD (cipher)
In cryptography, the QUAD, cipher is a relatively new stream cipher, which was designed with provable security arguments in mind.
Hidden Field Equations
Hidden Fields Equations (HFE), also known as HFE trapdoor function, is a public key cryptosystem which was introduced at Eurocrypt in 1996 and proposed by (in French) Jacques Patarin following the ide
