  2. Digital Signature Algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Signature_Algorithm

    The Digital Signature Algorithm (DSA) is a public-key cryptosystem and Federal Information Processing Standard for digital signatures, based on the mathematical concept of modular exponentiation and the discrete logarithm problem. In a public-key cryptosystem, a pair of private and public keys are created: data encrypted with either key can ...

  3. Boyer–Moore majority vote algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boyer–Moore_majority_vote...

    The state of the Boyer–Moore algorithm after each input symbol. The inputs are shown along the bottom of the figure, and the stored element and counter are shown as the symbols and their heights along the black curve.

  4. Boyer–Moore string-search algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boyer–Moore_string-search...

    The Boyer–Moore algorithm searches for occurrences of P in T by performing explicit character comparisons at different alignments. Instead of a brute-force search of all alignments (of which there are ⁠ + ⁠), Boyer–Moore uses information gained by preprocessing P to skip as many alignments as possible.

  5. Schnorr signature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schnorr_signature

    In cryptography, a Schnorr signature is a digital signature produced by the Schnorr signature algorithm that was described by Claus Schnorr.It is a digital signature scheme known for its simplicity, among the first whose security is based on the intractability of certain discrete logarithm problems.

  6. Counting points on elliptic curves - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counting_points_on...

    An important aspect in the study of elliptic curves is devising effective ways of counting points on the curve.There have been several approaches to do so, and the algorithms devised have proved to be useful tools in the study of various fields such as number theory, and more recently in cryptography and Digital Signature Authentication (See elliptic curve cryptography and elliptic curve DSA).

  7. EdDSA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EdDSA

    Ed25519 is the EdDSA signature scheme using SHA-512 (SHA-2) and an elliptic curve related to Curve25519 [2] where =, / is the twisted Edwards curve + =, = + and = is the unique point in () whose coordinate is / and whose coordinate is positive.

  8. Extendible hashing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extendible_hashing

    Below is the extendible hashing algorithm in Python, with the disc block / memory page association, caching and consistency issues removed. Note a problem exists if the depth exceeds the bit size of an integer, because then doubling of the directory or splitting of a bucket won't allow entries to be rehashed to different buckets.

  9. Lattice-based cryptography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lattice-based_cryptography

    In 1996, Miklós Ajtai introduced the first lattice-based cryptographic construction whose security could be based on the hardness of well-studied lattice problems, [3] and Cynthia Dwork showed that a certain average-case lattice problem, known as short integer solutions (SIS), is at least as hard to solve as a worst-case lattice problem.
