Analyzing Pump and jump BKZ algorithm using dynamical systems

Abstract

The analysis of the reduction effort of the lattice reduction algorithm is important in estimating the hardness of lattice-based cryptography schemes. Recently many lattice challenge records have been cracked by using the Pnj-BKZ algorithm which is the default lattice reduction algorithm used in G6K, such as the TU Darmstadt LWE and SVP Challenges. However, the previous estimations of the Pnj-BKZ algorithm are simulator algorithms rather than theoretical upper bound analyses. In this work, we present the first dynamic analysis of Pnj-BKZ algorithm. More precisely, our analysis results show that let $L$ is the lattice spanned by $(\mathbf{a}_i)_{i\leq d}$. The shortest vector $\mathbf{b}_1$ output by running $\Omega \left ( \frac{2Jd^2}{\beta(\beta-J)}\left ( \ln_{}{d} +\ln_{} \ln_{}{\max_{i}\frac{\left \| \mathbf{a}_i^{*} \right \| }{(\mathrm{det}L )^{1/d} } } \right ) \right ) $ tours reduction of pnj-BKZ$(\beta,J)$, $\mathbf{b}_1$ satisfied that $\left \| \mathbf{b}_1 \right \| \le {\gamma}_{\beta}^{\frac{d-1}{2(\beta-J)}+2 } \cdot \left ( \mathrm{det}L \right ) ^{\frac{1}{d} } $.
