معرفی
Professor Florian Breuer is a mathematician at the University of Newcastle, Australia, affiliated with the Priority Research Centre for Computer-Assisted Research Mathematics and its Applications (CARMA) and the School of Information and Physical Sciences.
- PhD in Mathematics (2002) from Université Denis Diderot, Paris 7
- D.E.A. (Masters) in Mathematics (1999) from Université Pierre et Marie Curie, Paris 6
His research focuses on Number Theory, particularly Elliptic Curves, Drinfeld Modules, and Drinfeld Modular Forms. He explores the interplay between number fields and function fields, with applications to Cryptography and Post-Quantum Cryptography. His work also spans Ducci Sequences and Finite Field Arithmetic.
Recent publications highlight his contributions to modular polynomial coefficients, Drinfeld modular forms in higher rank, and the arithmetic of real quadratic fields. His research bridges abstract mathematical structures with practical cryptographic applications, emphasizing long-term technological impact.
