Theory of cryptography | Cryptography
The generic group model is an idealised cryptographic model, where the adversary is only given access to a randomly chosen encoding of a group, instead of efficient encodings, such as those used by the finite field or elliptic curve groups used in practice. The model includes an oracle that executes the group operation. This oracle takes two encodings of group elements as input and outputs an encoding of a third element. If the group should allow for a pairing operation this operation would be modeled as an additional oracle. One of the main uses of the generic group model is to analyse computational hardness assumptions. An analysis in the generic group model can answer the question: "What is the fastest generic algorithm for breaking a cryptographic hardness assumption". A generic algorithm is an algorithm that only makes use of the group operation, and does not consider the encoding of the group. This question was answered for the discrete logarithm problem by Victor Shoup using the generic group model. Other results in the generic group model are for instance. The model can also be extended to other algebraic structures like rings. The generic group model suffers from some of the same problems as the random oracle model. In particular, it has been shown using a similar argument that there exist cryptographic schemes which are provably secure in the generic group model but which are trivially insecure once the random group encoding is replaced with an efficiently computable instantiation of the encoding function.

Definition of a group Lesson 24
In this video we take our first look at the definition of a group. It is basically a set of elements and the operation defined on them. If this set of elements and the operation defined on them obey the properties of closure and associativity, and if one of the elements is the identity el

In this tutorial we define a subgroup and prove two theorem that help us identify a subgroup. These proofs are simple to understand. There are also two examples of subgroups.

Matrix Groups (Abstract Algebra)
Matrices are a great example of infinite, nonabelian groups. Here we introduce matrix groups with an emphasis on the general linear group and special linear group. The general linear group is written as GLn(F), where F is the field used for the matrix elements. The most common examples

Now that we have defined and understand quotient groups, we need to look at product groups. In this video I define the product of two groups as well as the group operation, proving that it is indeed a group.

There is no better way of understanding product groups than working through and example. In this video we look at the product group of the cyclic group with two elements and itself. The final result is isomorphic to what we call the Klein 4 group.

Welcome to group theory! In today's lesson we'll be going over the definition of a group. We'll see the four group axioms in action with some examples, and some non-examples as well which violate the axioms and are thus not groups. In a fundamental way, groups are structures built from s
