内容説明・目次
内容説明
Cryptography is one of the most active areas in current mathematics research and applications. This book focuses on cryptography along with two related areas: the study of probabilistic proof systems, and the theory of computational pseudorandomness. Following a common theme that explores the interplay between randomness and computation, the important notions in each field are covered, as well as novel ideas and insights.
