The Reliable Communication Group at the University of Bergen invites applications for a 3-year researcher position in Boolean functions. The position is supposed to start in October 2014.

The candidate is expected to have PhD degree in mathematics or computer science or related disciplines, and have considerable publications in discrete functions.

We are seeking an active researcher with expertise in Boolean functions, discrete mathematics and symmetric cryptography to work within the recently funded project “Discrete functions and their applications in cryptography and mathematics”. The prime objectives of this project are Boolean functions with optimal resistance to various cryptographic attacks (differential, linear, algebraic et al.) and their applications in discrete mathematics (such as commutative semifields, o-polynomials, difference sets, dual hyperovals, regular graphs, m-sequences, codes et al.).
