Équipe ATI
The ATI team is part of the Arithmetic, Geometry, Logic and Representations (AGLR) scientific group.
The Arithmetic and Information Theory team was born out of a meeting between researchers working at the interface between number theory, algebraic geometry and their applications to information theory, in particular error-correcting codes and cryptography, thus identifying the three main themes on which the team works. These three themes interact with each other. There is also a theme linked to the regularity theory of completely non-linear elliptic equations, which gave rise to results presented at the International Mathematical Congress in 2010.

Thèmes de recherche
- Algebraic and analytic number theory: Riemann hypothesis, distribution of arithmetic functions, number fields (L functions, zeta functions, number of classes, fundamental units), Frobenius distributions (Lang-Trotter and Sato-Tate conjectures), exponential sums, cyclotomy of Weil sums, diophantine equations.
- Modular shapes. Galois representations.
- Algorithmic number theory: algorithms in finite fields, number fields, function fields and algebraic varieties (Chudnovsky, CM method, Point counting: Schoof-Elkies-Atkin algorithms, p-adic method of Satoh and Mestre by canonical bearing, p-adic method of Kedlaya).
- Study the geometric and arithmetic properties of various geometric objects (curves, abelian varieties, surfaces, etc.), with applications to code theory and cryptography.
- Arithmetic in function fields: turns/suites of function fields defined over finite fields (Kummer, Artin-Schreier, modular, Shimura-type turns), Riemann-Roch spaces, descent problem.
- Number of rational points of algebraic sets, abelian varieties including Prym varieties and Jacobians over finite fields.
- Curves of small kinds.
- Singular curves, optimum and maximum curves.
- Greenhouse obstruction.
- L-adic cohomology.
- Regularity of elliptic and hydrodynamic partial differential equations.
- Computational and effective algebraic geometry.
- Algebraic complexity (complexity of arithmetic operations in finite fields).
- Boolean functions in coding and cryptography, nonlinearity, APN functions and functions with low differential uniformity, asymptotic study of differential uniformity.
- Error-correcting codes, in particular codes on rings and quasi-cyclic codes, interconnection networks, arithmetic networks (lattices).
– Weight of generalized Reed-Muller codes, and codes defined on quadratic or Hermitian varieties. - Construction of corrective codes for information transmission problems using algebraic geometry and number theory. In particular, these are codes with different locality and sparsity conditions.
- Applied cryptography (construction and study of cryptographic primitives and protocols, side channels, pseudo-random generators, secret sharing, authenticated dictionaries).
- Construction of exponentiation algorithms in finite fields.
- Effective implementation of algorithms.
