The topics include but are not restricted to error-correction codes, network coding, subspace codes, convolutional codes, LDPC codes, code-based cryptography, number-theoretic cryptography. The duration of each talk should be about 20-25 minutes. The deadline to submit the abstract for talks was May 15, 2022.

Special issue of Journal of Algebra and Applications

 

We are also pleased to announce a special issue of the Journal of Algebra and Applications, titled "Recent Advances in Coding theory and cryptography", in honor of Joachim Rosenthal's 60th birthday.
