Seminars at the Selmer Center
Main content
We conduct a series of regular seminars dedicated to the dissemination and discussion of the latest research findings of our group members and visiting researchers.
These seminars focus specifically on a range of topics including cryptographic Boolean functions, error-correcting codes, sequences, discrete mathematics, and cryptanalytic approaches, along with their points of intersection. Our goal is to foster a vibrant exchange of ideas, facilitate collaborative research efforts, and further the advancement of knowledge within these critical areas of study.
