Venue: Torsion points of jacobians of algebraic curves over finite fields

Speaker: Professor Xing Zhaoping ( Singapore Nanyang Technology University )

Location: Fourth Floor, Sir Run Run Shaw Business Administration Building,Yuquan Campus, Zhejiang University

Abstract:

Motivated by several applications from theoretical computer science such as field multiplication complexity and secret sharing, the problem of finding algebraic curves over finite fields with small torsion group has been studied recently. In this talk, we survey some of the results on this topic.
