Copulas have attracted much attention in spatial statistics over the past few years. They are used as a flexible alternative to traditional methods for nonGaussian spatial modelin...
We use ideas from game theory to define a new notion for an optimal threshold for the number of erroneous responses that occur during the rapid-bit exchange over noisy channels i...
We give direct constructions of pseudorandom function (PRF) families based on conjectured hard lattice problems and learning problems. Our constructions are asymptotically effici...
We describe a systematic framework for using a stream cipher supporting an initialisation vector (IV) to perform various tasks of authentication and authenticated encryption. These...
Abstract. In this paper we find a lower bound of the second-order nonlinearities of Boolean bent functions of the form f(x) = Trn 1 (α1xd1 + α2xd2 ), where d1 and d2 are Niho ex...
