Math of Hint usage in Dilithium

For Dilithium, I understand that $$\text{HighBits}(\mathbf{Ay}) = \text{HighBits}(\mathbf{Ay} - c\mathbf{s_2}) = \text{HighBits}(A_z - c\mathbf{t})$$ The first term of the equation is performed on the ...

How to reconstruct low order bits of $t$ of CRYSTALS-Dilithium from a small number of signatures?

In FIPS 204 (https://nvlpubs.nist.gov/nistpubs/FIPS/NIST.FIPS.204.ipd.pdf): "The vector $\textbf{t}$ is compressed in the actual public key by dropping the $d$ least significant bits from each ...

Do we need the quantum random oracle model (QROM)?

I am currently studying the proof of the Dilithium signature in the quantum random oracle model (QROM). I am curious to hear if anyone have any thoughts on the importance of having proofs in the QROM ...

Kyber and Dilithium explained to primary school students?

Kyber and Dilithium are post-quantum cryptographic designs, but the resources are hard to understand. Is it possible to explain those ciphers to children?

Why did NIST select Kyber and Dilithium?

NIST selected Kyber for key agreement and Dilithium for digital signature applications some days ago. But IDF's MATZOV group, in their paper, broke Kyber and Dilithium and brought the security levels ...

Which parts of CRYSTALS-Kyber and CRYSTALS-Dilithium are compatible?

The papers CRYSTALS-Kyber and CRYSTALS-Dilithium both have been written by quite different authors. It seems that at least the key generation is very different from each other. CRYSTALS mainly seems ...

Why is it safe to generate the secret key and masking vectors using rejection sampling in CRYSTALS-Dilithium?

In CRYSTALS-Dilithium module lattice-based digital signatures, the secret key vectors $s_1, s_2$ with coefficients in $[-\eta, \eta]$ and the signature masking vector $y$ with coefficients in $(-\...
