Unstable splitting of $V(1) ^ V(1)$ and its applications

Investigation of Some Attacks on GAGE (v1), InGAGE (v1), (v1.03), and CiliPadi (v1) Variants

In this paper, we present some attacks on GAGE, InGAGE, and CiliPadi which are candidates of the first round of the NIST-LWC competition. GAGE and InGAGE are lightweight sponge based hash function and Authenticated Encryption with Associated Data (AEAD), respectively and support different sets of parameters. The length of hash, key, and tag are always 256, 128, and 128 bits, respec...

Cryptanalysis of Simpira v1

Simpira v1 is a recently proposed family of permutations, based on the AES round function. The design includes recommendations for using the Simpira permutations in block ciphers, hash functions, or authenticated ciphers. The designers’ security analysis is based on computer-aided bounds for the minimum number of active S-boxes. We show that the underlying assumptions of independence, and thus ...

[hal-00693295, v1] On Two Applications of Herschel's Theorem

Abstract. As a first application of a very old theorem, known as Herschel’s theorem, we provide direct elementary proofs of several explicit expressions for some numbers and polynomials that are known in combinatorics. The second application deals with the analytical continuation of the polylogarithmic function of complex argument beyond the circle of convergence.
