Biography

Petr Lisonek is a professor in the Department of Mathematics at Simon Fraser University. His research involves applications of algebraic and combinatorial methods in cryptography and error-correcting codes. He focuses on non-linear functions critical for symmetric cryptography, employing both algebraic and combinatorial approaches. His work extends to algebraic and combinatorial error-correcting codes for classical and quantum channels, adapting construction methods for quantum code development. Additionally, he investigates steganography, especially schemes utilizing linear codes for message concealment. His interests also include the algorithmic aspects of these fields within computer algebra contexts.
