SS14 - Finite Fields and Applications
link to the session's webpage
This session’s focus is on the rich and diverse world of finite fields which play a crucial role in various branches of mathematics like algebra, number theory, combinatorics, finite geometry and more.
Finite fields also provide the foundation for many aspects of secure and robust communications in applied areas such as coding theory, cryptography, and information theory.
We aim to bring together a group of researchers to discuss and showcase the latest advancements in the theory, applications and implementations of finite fields.
