A new family of tight sets in Q+(5, q)
In this paper, we describe a new infinite family of q2 −1 2 -tight sets in the hyperbolic quadrics Q+ (5, q), for q ≡ 5 or 9 mod 12. Under the Klein correspondence, these cor...

Exceptional planar polynomials
Planar functions are special functions from a finite field to itself that give rise to finite projective planes and other combinatorial objects. We consider polynomials over a ...

Generic constructions of integrated PKE and PEKS
In this paper we investigate the topic of integrated public-key encryption (PKE) and public-key encryption with keyword search (PEKS) schemes (PKE-PEKS as shorthand). We first fo...

Self-updatable encryption with short public parameters and its extensions
Cloud storage is very popular since it has many advantages, but there is a new threat to cloud storage that was not considered before. Self-updatable encryption that updates a pas...

On the automorphisms of order 15 for a binary self-dual [96, 48, 20] code
The structure of binary self-dual codes invariant under the action of a cyclic group of order pq for odd primes p ̸= q is considered. As an application we prove the nonexistence ...

Structural cryptanalysis of McEliece schemes with compact keys
A very popular trend in code-based cryptography is to decrease the public-key size by focusing on subclasses of alternant/Goppa codes which admit a very compact public matrix, typi...

A survey of the multiplier conjecture
We review the current status of the multiplier conjecture for difference sets, present some new results on it, and determine the open cases of the conjecture for abelian groups of...
