After a long slog, by many, many people, the first issue of the Communications on Cryptology is out. This is a new Diamond Open Access (free to publish, free to view) journal from the IACR. cic.iacr.org/i/1/1

This looks serious. Damn serious. Some lattice expert can say something about it? eprint.iacr.org/2024/555

Come work with us!

Chen’s paper has a bug, independently discovered by Hongxun Weng and Thomas Vidick, that he doesn’t know how to fix. If I understand correctly, in its current form the paper doesn’t yield any improvement on prior algorithms. eprint.iacr.org/2024/555

📜Out now Nature Communications !😊 We show that what you learn & how you learn it can lead to important differences in neural activity structure + these differences play an important role in later adaptation nature.com/articles/s4146… w/ Matt Perich Lee E Miller Juan Álvaro Gallego ClopathLab 🧵

New work on improving SQIsign using two dimensional isogenies. A post-quantum signature scheme with compact public keys, signatures and the fastest verification of isogeny-based protocols so far. eprint.iacr.org/2024/760

We're crowdsourcing a list of mainstream uses of "fancy" cryptography such as OPRFs, blind signatures, SNARKs and ZKP. Basically cryptography beyond symmetric ciphers, hashes, signatures, and KEM/PKE. github.com/fancy-cryptogr…

Are you curious where cryptographers work around the world? Here is a plot of the affiliations that people have listed in eprint: eprint.iacr.org/geo/index.html I'm guessing that Russia is under-represented in this data set.
