A New Class of Invertible Mappings
Alexander Klimov,Adi Shamir +1 more
TL;DR: A new class of provably invertible mappings which can mix arithmetic operations (negation, addition, subtraction, multiplication) and boolean operations (not, xor, and, or), are highly efficient, and have desirable cryptographic properties are introduced.
Book ChapterDOI
Analysis of Neural Cryptography
TL;DR: This paper analyses the security of a new key exchange protocol proposed in [3], which is based on mutually learning neural networks, and shows that it can be broken in three different ways, and thus it is completely insecure.
Journal Article
Cryptographic applications of T-functions
Alexander Klimov,Adi Shamir +1 more
TL;DR: A T-function is a mapping in which the i-th bit of the output can depend only on bits 0, 1,..., i of the input as mentioned in this paper, and all the bitwise machine operations and most of the numeric machine operations in modern processors are T-functions.
Book ChapterDOI
New cryptographic primitives based on multiword T-functions
Alexander Klimov,Adi Shamir +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a new way to construct invertible T-functions on multiword states whose iteration is guaranteed to yield a single cycle of arbitrary length (say, 2256).
Book ChapterDOI
Cryptographic Applications of T-Functions
Alexander Klimov,Adi Shamir +1 more
TL;DR: This paper shows that T-functions can be used to construct exceptionally efficient cryptographic building blocks which can beused as nonlinear maximal length state transition functions in stream ciphers, as large S-boxes in block cipher, and as non-algebraic multipermutations in hash functions.
