Group theory in cryptography
This paper is a guide for the pure mathematician who would like to know more
about cryptography based on group theory. The paper gives a brief overview of
the subject, and provides pointers to good textbooks, key research papers and
recent survey papers in the area.Comment: 25 pages References updated, and a few extra references added. Minor
typographical changes. To appear in Proceedings of Groups St Andrews 2009 in

Public-key cryptography and invariant theory
Public-key cryptosystems are suggested based on invariants of groups. We give
also an overview of the known cryptosystems which involve groups.Comment: 10 pages, LaTe
