Alfred Menezes releases gentle introduction to lattice-based crypto covering Kyber and Dilithium
matthew_d_green · x · 2026-10-29
Alfred Menezes (University of Waterloo) has revised his extensive tutorial on lattice-based cryptography on the IACR ePrint archive (2026/1098).
- Covers four quantum-safe schemes: Kyber (ML-KEM) and FrodoKEM key encapsulation, plus Dilithium (ML-DSA) and Falcon (FN-DSA) signatures
- Develops the lattice math background needed to understand why these are lattice-based cryptosystems
- Explains the computational hardness of the underlying lattice problems
- Written to be accessible to senior undergraduates and beginning graduate students
A solid entry point for anyone wanting to understand the math behind post-quantum standards.
