Benjamin Wesolowski
Special guest
Benjamin Wesolowski obtained his PhD in 2018 at the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL, Switzerland) on arithmetic and geometric structures in public key cryptography. After a post-doc at the Cryptology Group of the Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica (CWI, The Netherlands), he joined the Institut de Mathématiques de Bordeaux as a CNRS research scientist, where he is now a member of the number theory team.
His research concerns various facets of cryptology, with a particular focus on cryptologic algorithms related to number theory and algebraic geometry. He has contributed to the cryptanalysis of schemes based on lattices, isogenies, and discrete logarithms in finite fields.
