July 11 - 15, 2022

Zurich, Switzerland

This conference is in honor of Joachim Rosenthal on the occasion of his 60th birthday.


Joachim Rosenthal is Professor of Applied Mathematics in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Zurich since 2004.

The topics include but are not restricted to error-correction codes, network coding, subspace codes, convolutional codes, LDPC codes, code-based cryptography, number-theoretic cryptography. The duration of each talk should be about 20-25 minutes. The deadline to submit the abstract for talks was May 15, 2022.

Special issue of Journal of Algebra and Applications

 

We are also pleased to announce a special issue of the Journal of Algebra and Applications, titled "Recent Advances in Coding theory and cryptography", in honor of Joachim Rosenthal's 60th birthday.
