Is there a complete summarized list of attacks on Diffie-Hellman?

Is there a complete summarized list of attacks on Diffie-Hellman? For RSA, there is this paper by Boneh, so I was wondering whether there is such a list for attacks on DHKE. I have been looking everywhere. Surprisingly, I can't find one. Could you…

Sites to find crypto intermediate values

Does anyone know of any sites where intermediate values of multiple crypto algorithms (not just the famous ones), including hashes, can be found? I don't just mean intermediate values of encrypting. I'm also looking for intermediate values of the…

Where can I find useful data for cryptography/coding theory?

When implementing cryptographic/coding theory algorithms one need to use data like big prime numbers, numbers in $Z_n$ and their inverses, irreducible polynomials in $Z_n[x]$ and so on... While sometimes it is easy to write a simple program to get…

Comparison: complexity measures vs. security

Assume that you want to compare several cryptographic primitives (say, encryption schemes), and choose one. You need to consider several complexity measures, such as the key length, encryption time, decryption time, etc. In order for the comparison…

Estimating difficulty of "Memory-Hard Proof-of-Work" based on "size of memory"?

In Bitcoin proof-of-work, the difficulty of Proof-of-Work is estimated and calculated based on total hashing power of the participants. If total hashing power of the participants is higher, then PoW is more difficult. If we use a…

Detailed running time analysis for Shamir secret sharing scheme

I am successfully working on Shamir's secret sharing scheme for few months. But the only issue I am facing is the calculation of theoretical time complexity. Since I am from algorithmic background, I am unaware of the time complexities of the…

Is it possible to prove that I have half a key to decrypt file, to someone who has other half, without disclosing my part?

Is it possible to prove that I have half a key to decrypt file, to someone who has other half, without disclosing my part? Or better yet, could you suggest a place where I can read about solved and unsolvable practical cryptographic problems like…

Simplicity and precision in cryptography papers

I know a PhD student who recently had his paper on applied cryptography rejected because one the reviewers claimed that it was "the solution was too simple and the notation used was more than necessary". It was accepted by the second reviewer.…
