International Association
for Cryptologic Research

We (Chris Brzuska and Russell Lai) are looking for postdocs interested in working with us on topics including but not limited to:

• Lattice-based cryptography, with special focus on the design, application, and analysis of structured/hinted lattice assumptions
• Succinct/zero-knowledge/batch proof and argument systems, functional commitments
• Advanced (e.g. homomorphic, attribute-based, functional, laconic) encryption and (e.g. ring, group, threshold, blind) signature schemes
• Time-based cryptography (e.g. time-lock puzzle, verifiable delay function, proof of sequential work)
• Fine-grained cryptography (e.g. against bounded-space-time adversaries)
• Lower bounds and impossibility results
• Key exchange and secure messaging protocols and their formal verification

This is part of Helsinki Institute for Information Technology (HIIT)'s joint call for Research Fellow and Postdoctoral Fellow. For more details about the position, and for the instructions of how to apply, please refer to https://www.hiit.fi/hiit-postdoctoral-and-research-fellow-positions/.
