Pseudorandomness and Cryptographic Applications, by Michael Luby, presents the mathematical underpinnings of one-way hash functions, which can be used to implement pseudorandom number generators. (These have a wide array of applications in cryptography.) After covering these basic mathematical ideas, the author delves into their applications in cryptosystems. Organized in 18 lectures, this book provides a mathematically intense treatise on the subject without much commentary in between. A set of exercises accompanies each chapter and a bibliography concludes the text. Filled with elegant mathematics, this is clearly a book for academic specialists.
Book Description
A pseudorandom generator is an easy-to-compute function that stretches a short random string into a much longer string that "looks" just like a random string to any efficient adversary. One immediate application of a pseudorandom generator is the construction of a private key cryptosystem that is secure against chosen plaintext attack. There do not seem to be natural examples of functions that are pseudorandom generators. On the other hand, there do seem to be a variety of natural examples of...  read more
