Welcome to the resource topic for 2018/278

Title:
Mixed-radix Naccache-Stern encryption

Authors: Rémi Géraud, David Naccache

Abstract:

In this work we explore a combinatorial optimization problem stemming from the Naccache-Stern cryptosystem. We show that solving this problem results in bandwidth improvements, and suggest a polynomial-time approximation algorithm to find an optimal solution. Our work suggests that using optimal radix encoding results in an asymptotic 50% increase in bandwidth.
