Project

Security and reliability are crucial when you design modern information and communication systems. In recent years algebraic geometry has served as a fundamental tool to address major issues in this field.

The main objectives of the project are 

  • to construct and decode improved algebraic geometry codes
  • to extend the use of algebraic geometry in cryptography and wireless security
