Funded Activity Summary

Pseudorandomness in Number Theory, Dynamics and Cryptography. The aim of the project is to investigate various aspects of randomness, design new and analyse previously known constructions of randomness extractors of practical use. As a dual aim, we will also investigate the pseudorandomness of some classical number-theoretic objects. The significance of this project is in a large number of theoretical and practical applications and in new methods which will be developed. Expected outcomes include new cryptographically strong hash functions and progress towards several famous open conjectures such as Sarnak’s conjecture. These new results and methods will be highly beneficial for both theoretical mathematics and also for such practical areas as cryptography and information security.
