Composite Cyclotomic Fourier Transforms with Reduced Complexities
Discrete Fourier transforms~(DFTs) over finite fields have widespread
applications in digital communication and storage systems. Hence, reducing the
computational complexities of DFTs is of great significance. Recently proposed
cyclotomic fast Fourier transforms (CFFTs) are promising due to their low
multiplicative complexities. Unfortunately, there are two issues with CFFTs:
(1) they rely on efficient short cyclic convolution algorithms, which has not
been investigated thoroughly yet, and (2) they have very high additive
complexities when directly implemented. In this paper, we address both issues.
One of the main contributions of this paper is efficient bilinear 11-point
cyclic convolution algorithms, which allow us to construct CFFTs over
GF. The other main contribution of this paper is that we propose
composite cyclotomic Fourier transforms (CCFTs). In comparison to previously
proposed fast Fourier transforms, our CCFTs achieve lower overall complexities
for moderate to long lengths, and the improvement significantly increases as
the length grows. Our 2047-point and 4095-point CCFTs are also first efficient
DFTs of such lengths to the best of our knowledge. Finally, our CCFTs are also
advantageous for hardware implementations due to their regular and modular
structure.Comment: submitted to IEEE trans on Signal Processin
On fast multiplication of a matrix by its transpose
We present a non-commutative algorithm for the multiplication of a
2x2-block-matrix by its transpose using 5 block products (3 recursive calls and
2 general products) over C or any finite field.We use geometric considerations
on the space of bilinear forms describing 2x2 matrix products to obtain this
algorithm and we show how to reduce the number of involved additions.The
resulting algorithm for arbitrary dimensions is a reduction of multiplication
of a matrix by its transpose to general matrix product, improving by a constant
factor previously known reductions.Finally we propose schedules with low memory
footprint that support a fast and memory efficient practical implementation
over a finite field.To conclude, we show how to use our result in LDLT
factorization.Comment: ISSAC 2020, Jul 2020, Kalamata, Greec
A Non-commutative Cryptosystem Based on Quaternion Algebras
We propose BQTRU, a non-commutative NTRU-like cryptosystem over quaternion
algebras. This cryptosystem uses bivariate polynomials as the underling ring.
The multiplication operation in our cryptosystem can be performed with high
speed using quaternions algebras over finite rings. As a consequence, the key
generation and encryption process of our cryptosystem is faster than NTRU in
comparable parameters. Typically using Strassen's method, the key generation
and encryption process is approximately times faster than NTRU for an
equivalent parameter set. Moreover, the BQTRU lattice has a hybrid structure
that makes inefficient standard lattice attacks on the private key. This
entails a higher computational complexity for attackers providing the
opportunity of having smaller key sizes. Consequently, in this sense, BQTRU is
more resistant than NTRU against known attacks at an equivalent parameter set.
Moreover, message protection is feasible through larger polynomials and this
allows us to obtain the same security level as other NTRU-like cryptosystems
but using lower dimensions.Comment: Submitted for possible publicatio
Clustered Integer 3SUM via Additive Combinatorics
We present a collection of new results on problems related to 3SUM,
including:
1. The first truly subquadratic algorithm for
1a. computing the (min,+) convolution for monotone increasing
sequences with integer values bounded by ,
1b. solving 3SUM for monotone sets in 2D with integer coordinates
bounded by , and
1c. preprocessing a binary string for histogram indexing (also
called jumbled indexing).
The running time is:
with
randomization, or deterministically. This greatly improves the
previous time bound obtained from Williams'
recent result on all-pairs shortest paths [STOC'14], and answers an open
question raised by several researchers studying the histogram indexing problem.
2. The first algorithm for histogram indexing for any constant alphabet size
that achieves truly subquadratic preprocessing time and truly sublinear query
time.
3. A truly subquadratic algorithm for integer 3SUM in the case when the given
set can be partitioned into clusters each covered by an interval
of length , for any constant .
4. An algorithm to preprocess any set of integers so that subsequently
3SUM on any given subset can be solved in
time.
All these results are obtained by a surprising new technique, based on the
Balog--Szemer\'edi--Gowers Theorem from additive combinatorics
