Algebraic Erasors for Public Key Cryptography
by
Dorian Goldfeld

Coauthors: Michael Anshel, Iris Anshel

One-way functions are critical primitives in cryptography. We introduce the concept of an algebraic erasor and show how it leads to a class of one-way functions which can be rapidly computed at low cost on small processors for use in public key cryptography.
