TIME SERIES ANALYSIS

1. We will recall the basic principles of applied and numerical Fourier analysis: Fourier series and transform, energy and power spectrum, mutual and autocorrelation and their numerical computation.
2. Impulse and harmonic response of a system.
3. Filtering of a time series.
4. Time series as sampling of a continuous signal.

Code Based Cryptography

Code-based cryptography is the area of study which is interested in primitives based on hard problems from coding theory. In recent years, it has seen an exponential increase in importance and volume of research, since it is one of the main areas inside “post-quantum” cryptography, and thus a candidate to secure our communication against quantum threats. In this course, we investigate the main constructions pertaining to code-based cryptography, starting from its inception in the late 1970s, and arriving to modern day. The course will include a refresher of all relevant notions from coding theory and cryptography.

1 Coding theory refresher
