Algebraic Degree Estimation of ACORN v3 Using Numeric Mapping

ACORN v3 is a lightweight authenticated encryption cipher, which was selected as one of the seven finalists of CAESAR competition in March 2018. It is intended for lightweight applications (resource-constrained environments). By using the technique numeric mapping proposed at CRYPTO 2017, an efficie...
