Summary
Linear recurrence sequences over function fields and their applications. This project aims to deeply and systematically develop the theory of linear recurrence sequences (LRS) defined over function fields. Linear recurrence sequences (LRS) appear almost everywhere in mathematics and computer science. The project is expected to expand our knowledge on LRS and will span a wide range of new research directions.

This project aims to deeply and systematically develop the theory of linear recurrence sequences (LRS) defined over function fields. Linear recurrence sequences (LRS) appear almost everywhere in mathematics and computer science. The project is expected to expand our knowledge on LRS and will span a wide range of new research directions. Through investigating and revealing the theoretical and practical aspects of LRS over function fields, the project will enrich the toolkits for cybersecurity by providing new approaches to cryptography. The outcomes of the project will help position Australia as a leader in this field.Read moreRead less
Elliptic curves: number theoretic and cryptographic aspects. Smart information use is of fundamental nature and has a great number of applications. First-generation security solutions are unable to support the modern requirements and new security infrastructures are emerging that must be carefully, but rapidly, defined. This urgently needs new mathematical tools, which is the main goal of this project.
