The discrete logarithm problem in the group of non-singular circulant matrices

Ayan Mahalanobis

Abstract

The discrete logarithm problem is one of the backbones in public key cryptography. In this paper we study the discrete logarithm problem in the group of circulant matrices over a finite field. This gives rise to secure and fast public key cryptosystems.

Note: Minor changes in text, new reference.
