Beijing Institute of Mathematical Sciencesand Applications(BIMSA), Beijing, China
Job PostingMultiple fully funded positions on the Ding Lab in Cryptography and its applications at the Yanqi Lake Beijing Institute of Mathematical Sciences and Applications (BIMSA).
Ding LabThe Ding Lab in Public Key Cryptography will be led by Prof. Jintai Ding. It is an international open laboratory with English as the working language. Anyone who works in related areas including (but not restricted to) computational algebra, computational algebraic geometry, number theory, mathematical optimization, quantum algorithms, post-quantum cryptography, multi-party computation, zero-knowledge proof, fully homomorphic encryption, privacy preserving algorithms, block chain, high performance computing, and algorithm implementations are welcome to apply.
Positions- Visiting Scholar : including short term(less than 3 months) and long term(6 months to 1 year) for persons who has been granted with PhD degree
- Post-Doc
- Senior Researcher
- Research Associate (master)
All positions require you having a master or PhD degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, Cryptography, or equivalent practical experience.
SalaryBIMSA offers internationally competitive salary packages and salary will be determined by applicant's qualification. Recent PhDs are especially encouraged to apply. A typical appointment for postdoc of BIMSA is for two-years, renewable for the third year with annual salary ranges from 300,000 RMB to 500,000 RMB depending on experience and qualifications.
BIMSAThe BIMSA is a Mathematics research institution co-sponsored by Beijing Municipal Government and Tsinghua University, and the director of BIMSA is the renowned mathematician, Prof. Shing-Tung Yau. The BIMSA is located in the Huairou District of Beijing, and is part of Beijing’s strategic plans to build world-class new-style research & development institutions and national innovation center for science and technology. The BIMSA aims to develop fundamental scientific research and build a bridge between mathematics and industry applications.

ePrint ReportIn this paper, we present two major contributions to improve the parameter selection in the FV scheme. We perform the first average case analysis to estimate the error growth. Our method significantly improves on previous work in terms of accuracy and tightness of bounds. For a circuit with a multiplicative depth of only 3, our bounds are within 1.2 bits of the experimentally observed values while being up to 19 bits tighter than previous analyses.
In addition, we take advantage of our theoretical advances and propose the first parameter generation tool for the FV scheme. Here we add support for arbitrary but use-case-specific circuits, as well as the ability to generate easy-to-use code snippets, making our theoretical work accessible to both researchers and practitioners.
