Complexity and Cryptography : An Introduction

Buy
This book originated in a well-established yet constantly evolving course on
Complexity and Cryptography which we have both given to final year Mathematics
undergraduates at Oxford for many years. It has also formed part of an
M.Sc. course on Mathematics and the Foundations of Computer Science, and
has been the basis for a more recent course on Randomness and Complexity
for the same groups of students.

One of the main motivations for setting up the course was to give mathematicians,
who traditionally meet little in the way of algorithms, a taste for the
beauty and importance of the subject. Early on in the book the reader will have
gained sufficient background to understand what is now regarded as one of the
top ten major open questions of this century, namely the P = NP question. At
the same time the student is exposed to the mathematics underlying the security
of cryptosystems which are now an integral part of the modern ‘email age’.
Although this book provides an introduction to many of the key topics in
complexity theory and cryptography, we have not attempted to write a comprehensive
text. Obvious omissions include cryptanalysis, elliptic curve cryptography,
quantum cryptography and quantum computing. These omissions have
allowed us to keep the mathematical prerequisites to a minimum.
Throughout the text the emphasis is on explaining the main ideas and proving
the mathematical results rigorously. Thus we have not given every result in
complete generality.

The exercises at the end of many sections of the book are in general meant to
be routine and are to be used as a check on the understanding of the preceding
principle; the problems at the end of each chapter are often harder.

301 Inkjet Tips and Techniques: An Essential Printing Resource for Photographers (Digital Process and Print)
From the birth of photography in the 19th century with the work of Frenchmen Joseph Nicéphore Niépce and Louis Jacques Mande Daguerre, Englishman William Fox Talbot, and American John Locke, until today, at the beginning of the 21st century, the ultimate goal of photographers has always been to show their best...

Machine Learning: The Art and Science of Algorithms that Make Sense of Data
Machine Learning: The Art and Science of Algorithms that Make Sense of Data

As one of the most comprehensive machine learning texts around, this book does justice to the field's incredible richness, but without losing sight of the unifying principles. Peter Flach's clear, example-based approach begins by discussing how a spam filter works, which gives an immediate introduction to machine learning in action,...

Hello! Python
Hello! Python
When I was first asked to write Hello! Python, I didn’t want to write just another introductory book—I wanted to write something different. The programming books that I’ve read in the past have often been just a laundry list of features: a list can have things in it, and you can call len(mylist) to find out exactly how...
Black Masculinity and Sexual Politics (Routledge Research in Race and Ethnicity)
Black Masculinity and Sexual Politics (Routledge Research in Race and Ethnicity)

African American males occupy a historically unique social position, whether in school life, on the job, or within the context of dating, marriage and family. Often, their normal role expectations require that they perform feminized and hypermasculine roles simultaneously. This book focuses on how African American males experience...
