An optimized finite-field multiplier is proposed for encryption and error correction devices. It is based on a modified Linear Feedback Shift Register (LFSR) which has lower power consumption and smaller area than prior LFSR-based finite-field multipliers. The proposed finite field multiplier for GF(2n) multiplies two n-bit polynomials using polynomial basis to produce $z(x)=a(x)^*b(x)$ mod p(x), where p(x) is a irreducible polynomial for the Galois Field. The LFSR based on a serial multiplication structure has less complex circuits than array structures and hybrid structures. It is efficient to use the LFSR structure for systems with limited area and power consumption. The prior finite-field multipliers need 3${\cdot}$m flip-flops for multiplication of m-bit polynomials. Consequently, they need 6${\cdot}$m latches because one flip-flop consists of two latches. The proposed finite-field multiplier requires only 4${\cdot}$m latches for m-bit multiplication, which results in 1/3 smaller area than the prior finite-field multipliers. As a result, it can be used effectively in encryption and error correction devices with low-power consumption and small area.

Lattice-based cryptography is the most practical post-quantum cryptography because it enjoys strong worst-case security, relatively efficient implementation, and simplicity. Ring learning with errors (R-LWE) is a public key encryption (PKE) method of lattice-based encryption (LBC), and the most important operation of R-LWE is the modular polynomial multiplication of rings. This paper proposes a method for optimizing modular multipliers based on approximate computing (AC) technology, targeting the medium-security parameter set of the R-LWE cryptosystem. First, as a simple way to implement complex logic, LUT is used to omit some of the approximate multiplication operations, and the 2's complement method is used to calculate the number of bits whose value is 1 when converting the value of the input data to binary. We propose a total of two methods to reduce the number of required adders by minimizing them. The proposed LUT-based modular multiplier reduced both speed and area by 9% compared to the existing R-LWE modular multiplier, and the modular multiplier using the 2's complement method reduced the area by 40% and improved the speed by 2%. appear. Finally, the area of the optimized modular multiplier with both of these methods applied was reduced by up to 43% compared to the previous one, and the speed was reduced by up to 10%.

The computational cost of encryption is a barrier to wider application of a variety of data security protocols. Virtually all research on Elliptic Curve Cryptography(ECC) provides evidence to suggest that ECC can provide a family of encryption algorithms that implementation than do current widely used methods. This efficiency is obtained since ECC allows much shorter key lengths for equivalent levels of security. This paper suggests how improvements in execution of ECC algorithms can be obtained by changing the representation of the elements of the finite field of the ECC algorithm. Specifically, this research compares the time complexity of ECC computation eve. a variety of finite fields with elements expressed in the polynomial basis(PB) and normal basis(NB).

This paper presents two new algorithms and their architectures for $AB^2 $ multiplication over $GF(2^m)$.First, a new architecture with a new algorithm is designed based on LFSR (Linear Feedback Shift Register) architecture. Furthermore, modified $AB^2 $ multiplier is derived from the multiplier. The multipliers and the structure use AOP (All One Polynomial) as a modulus, which hat the properties of ail coefficients with 1. Simulation results thews that proposed architecture has lower hardware complexity than previous architectures. They could be. Therefore it is useful for implementing the exponential ion architecture, which is the tore operation In public-key cryptosystems.

In this paper, a new architecture for digit-parallel/bit-serial GF$(2^m)$ multiplier with low latency is proposed. The proposed multiplier operates in polynomial basis of GF$(2^m)$ and produces multiplication results at a rate of one per D clock cycles, where D is the selected digit size. The digit-parallel/bit-serial multiplier is faster than bit-serial ones but with lower area complexity than bit-parallel ones. The most significant feature of the proposed architecture is that a trade-off between hardware complexity and delay time can be achieved.

In this paper, a new architecture for digit-parallel/bit-serial GF($2^m$) multiplier with low complexity is proposed. The proposed multiplier operates in polynomial basis of GF($2^m$) and produces multiplication results at a rate of one per D clock cycles, where D is the selected digit size. The digit-parallel/bit-serial multiplier is faster than bit-serial ones but with lower area complexity than bit-parallel ones. The most significant feature of the digit-parallel/bit-serial architecture is that a trade-off between hardware complexity and delay time can be achieved. But the traditional digit-parallel/bit-serial multiplier needs extra hardware for high speed. In this paper a new low complexity efficient digit-parallel/bit-serial multiplier is presented.

A cellular array parallel multiplier with parallel-inputs and parallel-outputs for performing the multiplication of two polynomials in the finite fields GF$(2^m)$ is presented in this paper. The presented cellular way parallel multiplier consists of three operation parts: the multiplicative operation part (MULOP), the irreducible polynomial operation part (IPOP), and the modular operation part (MODOP). The MULOP and the MODOP are composed if the basic cells which are designed with AND Bates and XOR Bates. The IPOP is constructed by XOR gates and D flip-flops. This multiplier is simulated by clock period l${\mu}\textrm{s}$ using PSpice. The proposed multiplier is designed by 24 AND gates, 32 XOR gates and 4 D flip-flops when degree m is 4. In case of using AOP irreducible polynomial, this multiplier requires 24 AND gates and XOR fates respectively. and not use D flip-flop. The operating time of MULOP in the presented multiplier requires one unit time(clock time), and the operating time of MODOP using IPOP requires m unit times(clock times). Therefore total operating time is m+1 unit times(clock times). The cellular array parallel multiplier is simple and regular for the wire routing and have the properties of concurrency and modularity. Also, it is expansible for the multiplication of two polynomials in the finite fields with very large m.

In this paper, an efficient digit-serial systolic array is proposed for multiplication in finite field GF($2^m$) using the polynomial basis representation. The proposed systolic array is based on the most significant digit first (MSD-first) multiplication algorithm and produces multiplication results at a rate of one every "m/D" clock cycles, where D is the selected digit size. Since the inner structure of the proposed multiplier is tree-type, critical path increases logarithmically proportional to D. Therefore, the computation delay of the proposed architecture is significantly less than previously proposed digit-serial systolic multipliers whose critical path increases proportional to D. Furthermore, since the new architecture has the features of a high regularity, modularity, and unidirectional data flow, it is well suited to VLSI implementation.

In this paper, we propose a new multiplication algorithm for primitive polynomial with all 1 of coefficient in case that m is odd and even on finite fields $GF(3^m)$, and compose the multiplier with parallel input-output module structure using the presented multiplication algorithm. The proposed multiplier is designed $(m+1)^2$ same basic cells that have a mod(3) addition gate and a mod(3) multiplication gate. Since the basic cells have no a latch circuit, the multiplicative circuit is very simple and is short the delay time $T_A+T_X$ per cell unit. The proposed multiplier is easy to extend the circuit with large m having regularity and modularity by cell array, and is suitable to the implementation of VLSI circuit.

In this paper, we introduce and study the w-weak global dimension w-w.gl.dim(R) of a commutative ring R. As an application, it is shown that an integral domain R is a $Pr\ddot{u}fer$ v-multiplication domain if and only if w-w.gl.dim(R) ${\leq}1$. We also show that there is a large class of domains in which Hilbert's syzygy Theorem for the w-weak global dimension does not hold. Namely, we prove that if R is an integral domain (but not a field) for which the polynomial ring R[x] is w-coherent, then w-w.gl.dim(R[x]) = w-w.gl.dim(R).
