Randomness extractors are efficient algorithms which convert weak random sources into nearly perfect ones. While such purification of randomness was the original motivation for c...
In [1] a construction of a block cipher from a single pseudorandom permutation is proposed. In a complexity theoretical setting they prove that this scheme is secure against a pol...
Abstract. Many theorems about Kolmogorov complexity rely on existence of combinatorial objects with specific properties. Usually the probabilistic method gives such objects with b...
We show that proving results such as BPP = P essentially necessitate the construction of suitable pseudorandom generators (i.e., generators that suffice for such derandomization r...
We present a new approach to constructing pseudorandom generators that fool lowdegree polynomials over finite fields, based on the Gowers norm. Using this approach, we obtain th...
