Lilya Budaghyan

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lilya Budaghyan is an Armenian cryptographer, computer scientist, and discrete mathematician known for her work on the Boolean functions used as the building blocks of block ciphers, including bent functions and APN (almost perfectly nonlinear) functions. She is a professor in the Department of Informatics at the University of Bergen in Norway,[1] where she directs the Selmer Center in Secure Communication.[2][3]

Education and career[]

Budaghyan earned a diploma in mathematics, summa cum laude, from Yerevan State University in 1998. After additional graduate research at Yerevan State University, she completed a Ph.D. at Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg in Germany in 2005.[4] Her dissertation, The equivalence of almost bent and almost perfect nonlinear functions and their generalizations, was supervised by Alexander Pott.[5]

After postdoctoral research at the University of Trento, Italy, the University of Bergen, and the University of Paris 8 Vincennes-Saint-Denis (where she earned a habilitation in 2013), she became a professor at the University of Bergen in 2019.[4]

Works[]

Budaghyan is the author of the book Construction and Analysis of Cryptographic Functions (Springer, 2014).[6]

Also, she is a co-author for the works "New classes of almost bent and almost perfect nonlinear polynomials", "Constructing new APN functions from known ones", "Two classes of quadratic APN binomials inequivalent to power functions", "Classes of quadratic APN trinomials and hexanomials and related structures" and others.[7]

Recognition[]

Budaghyan won the Emil Artin Junior Prize in Mathematics in 2011.[8] She is a member of the Norwegian Academy of Technological Sciences,[9] elected in 2019.[10]
