I am Jiaming Wen (文嘉明), now pursuing my Ph.D. in Cryptography at Wuhan University (WHU), supervised by Huanguo Zhang.
I am also a CSC Joint Ph.D. student at the University of Wollongong (UOW), hosted by Willy Susilo and studying with the iC$^2$.
Before, I obtained my B.S. in Mathematics from Wuhan University in 2020.

My research interests are about cryptography and cyber security, to be more specific:

• Recently, my passion lies in analyzing and designing zero-knowledge protocols and signature schemes derived from them, mainly based on assumptions that conjectured quantum-resistant, e.g., Lattice, Multivariate, and Code.
• In the long term, I hope using technologies to establish trust among individuals at almost zero cost, which I consider to be the most subtle and elegant aspect of cryptography.

Feel free to reach me via cryptowjm at 163.com (preferred) or wenjm at whu.edu.cn, if questions or we share common tastes.

📰 News

• 2023/12: I moved to AU to begin a new journey. Thanks to whoever assisted me and the China Scholarship Council (CSC).
• 2023/10: My first submission to the Journal of WoCrypt was accepted by the Editor-in-Chieeeeeeeeeeeeef after revisions. See the bottom of this page and the Publisher’s website.
• 2023/09: Finally, I got this homepage done.

📜 Publications

Here are research papers that I am the First Author or Corresponding Author. For more, please refer to Google Scholar and DBLP.

Roughly, my existing publications can be categorized into Post-quantum (Lattice, Multivariate), and Pre-quantum (DL, Pairing). Most of them are irrigations and not worth reading. I am also looking forward to dominate works that please me. Unfortunately, I have not succeeded yet.

🧰 Misc

Serendipity

My name starts with “jiami” (Chinese for “encrypt”), and ends with “mingwen” (Chinese for “plaintext”).
I remove “ng” from it to obtain “miwen” (Chinese for “ciphertext”) for several usernames of mine, e.g., wechat, twitter, and github, as I believe it is more suitable for spreading over the public channel :-)

Some useful links

• My bilibili space, including several talks/courses I am or was interested in.
• IACR ePrint Archive, a mysterious website suggested visiting every day.
• The Lattice Club, including so many resources about Lattice-based Cryptography.
• Post-Quantum Signatures Zoo, including an overview of Post-Quantum Signatures.
• Keita Xagawa’s Homepage, including Bibliography on Lattice-based/Code-based Cryptosystems.
• Kai-Min Chung’s Homepage, including high-quality cryptography courses in Chinese.
• Journal of WoCrypt, a very serious fake journal, whose outcomes include “安全归约导论”, “数字签名密史” and its slides. Here are my always-unfinished notes for the former and xmind for the latter, which I hope are salutes to Prof. Guo.
