Sieve Method for Polynomial Linear Equivalence

We consider the polynomial linear equivalence (PLE) problem arising from the multivariate public key cryptography, which is defined as to find an invertible linear transformation ℒ satisfying 𝒫=𝒮∘ℒ for given nonlinear polynomial maps 𝒫 and 𝒮 over a finite field 𝔽q. Some cryptographic and algebraic p...
