Martin Albrecht’s Homepage

I am a postdoc in team SALSA of LIP6 at Université Pierre et Marie Curie (UPMC) in Paris. I earned my PhD in the Information Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London under the supervision of Carlos Cid. Before, I studied computer science at Universität Bremen where I wrote my Diplomarbeit in the AlZAGK group under the supervision of Michael Hortmann.

Academic Interests

My (current) main academic interests are:

  • symmetric key cryptology and cryptanalysis: block ciphers mainly
  • applications of computational algebra in cryptology
  • computational algebra in general
  • polynomial system solving with noise

Computation

I’m a developer for the Sage mathematics software. I am also the maintainer of the M4RI library for fast linear algebra over \mathbb{F}_2 and the M4RIE library for fast linear algebra over \mathbb{F}_{2^e}. I make the code I use for my research publicly available.
