Introduction to Math Cryptography

This self-contained introduction to modern cryptography emphasizes the mathematics behind the theory of public key cryptosystems and digital signature schemes. The book focuses on these key topics while developing the mathematical tools needed for the construction and security analysis of diverse cryptosystems. Only basic linear algebra is required of the reader; techniques from algebra, number theory, and probability are introduced and developed as required. Additional topics, including hash functions, pseudorandom number generators, zero-knowledge proofs, digital cash and DES/AES, are briefly described in the final chapter. This book is an ideal introduction for mathematics and computer science students to the mathematical foundations of modern cryptography. The book includes an extensive bibliography and indEx; supplementary materials are available online.
