Hidden Field Equations: Mathematical background, Multivariate cryptosystem & HFE attacks

Hidden Fields Equations (HFE), also known as HFE trapdoor function, is a public key cryptosystem which was introduced at Eurocrypt in 1996 and proposed by (in French) Jacques Patarin following the idea of the Matsumoto and Imai system. It is based on polynomials over finite fields F q {\displaystyle \mathbb {F} _{q}} of different size to disguise the…
