Sorina Ionica

Sorina Ionica is a Lecturer at the University of Picardie Jules Verne, specializing in Cryptography, Mathematics, and Artificial Intelligence. Her research focuses on the application of optimization techniques and algebraic geometry to cryptographic protocols, particularly in the context of genus 3 curves and isogeny-based cryptography.

• Research Interests: Cryptography, isogeny graphs, complex multiplication, index calculus, and AI-driven optimization algorithms.
• Projects: Involved in BforSAT (application of SAT solvers to cryptographic problems) and POSTCRYPTUM (post-quantum cryptography research).
• Recent Articles: Her work spans mathematical cryptography (e.g., CM curves and Weil descent attacks), algorithm optimization (Crossbred algorithm), and AI integration in cryptanalysis (tree search and SAT solvers).

Labs: Sorina is affiliated with the OCIA Lab (Optimization and Cryptography, AI).
