Modern Cryptography 2022Spring
This class consists of 2 parts running parallelly. The first part will be on Tuesday night where we give an introduction class for the basics of modern cryptography including symmetric cryptography, public key cryptography and post-quantum cryptography. The second part will be on Thursday night and we will cover advanced topics including multiparty computation, fully homomorphic encryption. The second part will also bring in speakers including students and postdocs to give lectures on their current research topics and results, and it encourages students to give presentations in any interesting topics they choose.

Lecturer Intro
Jintai Ding received a Ph.D. degree from Yale University and used to work as a professor of William Taft at the University of Cincinnati. Currently, he is a double-appointed professor at Yau Mathematical Sciences Center, Tsinghua University, and Yanqi Lake Beijing Institute of Mathematical Sciences and Applications (BIMSA). In the early days, he was engaged in the research of quantum affine algebra and representation theory, while his current research direction is post-quantum cryptography. Moreover, he has served as the co-chairman of the International Conference on Post-Quantum Cryptography for three times and is one of the prominent scholars of multivariate cryptography in the world.
Dr. Bei Liang received Ph.D. in information security from the Institute of Information Engineering, Chinese Academy of Sciences. She was a postdoc researcher at Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden. Currently, she is an assistant researcher at the BIMSA. Her main research interest is theoretical cryptography. She has published more than 20 papers in international journals or conferences, and won the ISC2019 Best Paper Award and the ProvSec2015 Best Student Paper Award. She participated in two National Key Research and Development Programs and undertook one Beijing Natural Science Foundation.
