Devoted to information security, this volume begins with a short course on cryptography, mainly basedon lectures given by Rudolf Ahlswede at the University of Bielefeld in the mid1990s. It was the second of his cycle of lectures on information theory whichopened with an introductory course on basic coding theorems, as covered inVolume 1 of this series. In this third volume, Shannon's historical work onsecrecy systems is detailed, followed by an introduction to aninformation-theoretic model of wiretap channels, and such important concepts ashomophonic coding and authentication. Once the theoretical arguments have beenpresented, comprehensive technical details of AES are given. Furthermore, ashort introduction to the history of public-key cryptology, RSA and El Gamalcryptosystems is provided, followed by a look at the basic theory of ellipticcurves, and algorithms for efficient addition in elliptic curves. Lastly, theimportant topic of oblivious transfer is discussed, which is stronglyconnected to the privacy problem in communication. Today, the importance ofthis problem is rapidly increasing, and further research and practical realizationsare greatly anticipated.This is the third of several volumes serving as thecollected documentation of Rudolf Ahlswede's lectures on information theory.Each volume includes comments from an invited well-known expert. In thesupplement to the present volume, Rüdiger Reischuk contributes his insights.Classical information processing concerns the main tasks of gaining knowledge and the storage, transmission and hiding of data. The first task is the prime goal of Statistics. For transmission and hiding data, Shannon developed an impressive mathematical theory called Information Theory, which he based on probabilistic models. The theory largely involves the concept of codes with small error probabilities in spite of noise in the transmission, which is modeled by channels. The lectures presented in this work are suitable for graduate students in Mathematics, and also for those working in Theoretical Computer Science, Physics, and Electrical Engineering with a background in basic Mathematics. The lectures can be used as the basis for courses or to supplement courses in many ways. Ph.D. students will also find research problems, often with conjectures, that offer potential subjects for a thesis. More advanced researchers may find questions which form the basis of entire research programs.

Über den Autor
Rudolf Ahlswede (1938 - 2010) studied Mathematics in Göttingen, and held postdoc positions in Erlangen, Germany and Ohio, USA. From 1977 on he was full Professor of Applied Mathematics at the University of Bielefeld. His work represents an essential contribution to information theory and networking. He developed and contributed to a number of central areas, including network coding, and theory of identification, while also advancing the fields of combinatorics and number theory. These efforts culminated in his research program Development of a General Theory of Information Transfer. In recognition of his work, Rudolf Ahlswede received several awards for Best Paper, as well as the distinguished Shannon Award.
