Post-Quantum Cryptography
Supersingular Isogeny Key Encapsulation (SIKE) is a cryptographic algorithm expected to be safe from quantum computing, yet was recently broken. This project aims to extend aspects of the SIKE algorithm by considering the mapping of pencils of elliptic curves by translation in their symmetry group.
