Public-Key Encryption Based on Matrix Diagonalization Problem

Abstract

A research on the development of a new public-key encryption scheme based on matrix diagonalization problem over a ring of algebraic integers is reported in this paper. The research is original, although it is still in its early stage. The new public key encryption algorithm has three original features that distinguish it from existing ones: (a) it works on an infinite field instead of a Galois field; (b)it recognizes the ability of adversaries to factor big integers; (c) it requires only simple (without modulus) additions and multiplications for message encryption and decryption, no high-order exponentiation is required.
