报告摘要:

The discrete logarithm problem is one of the most important problems in cryptography. In this talk, I will explain the mathematical ideas and questions arising from the recent breakthrough BGJT algorithm for discrete logarithms over finite fields of small characteristic. This is joint work with Q. Cheng and J. Zhuang (ANTS 2014).
