Hugo Sauerbier Couvée

Hugo Sauerbier Couvée is a Researcher (PhD candidate) in the Associate Professorship of Coding and Cryptography at the Technical University of Munich (TUM). He is affiliated with the Institute for Communications Engineering within the TUM School of Computation, Information and Technology. His research focuses on Algebraic Coding Theory, including coding theory for various metrics, code-based cryptography, combinatorics, algebra, and finite geometry. He is supervised by Prof. Antonia Wachter-Zeh.

Research interests:

• Coding theory for various metrics
• Code-based cryptographic systems
• Combinatorial structures in finite geometry
• Algebraic methods in information theory

Thesis availability includes master's and final project topics like Code Constructions for Burst Metrics and Rank-Metric Codes and Their Applications. Current theses in progress explore code-based digital signature schemes and foundational code-based cryptography topics.
