ENGG2013 Unit 10n n determinant andan application to cryptography Feb, 2011.
Yesterday – A formula for matrix inverse using cofactors cofactors Usually called the adjoint of A Suppose that det A is nonzero. Three steps in computing above formula1. for i,j = 1,2,3, replace each aij by cofactor Cij2. Take the transpose of the resulting matrix.3. divide by the determinant of A. ENGG2013
Outline • nxn determinant • Caesar Cipher • Modulo arithmetic • Hill Cipher ENGG2013
DETERMINANT IN GENERAL ENGG2013
A pattern • Arrange the products so that the first subscripts are in ascending order. • All possible orderings of the second subscripts appear once and only once. ENGG2013
Transposition • A transposition is an exchange of two objects in a list of objects. Examples: A B C D 2 1 4 5 3 A C B D 1 2 4 5 3 “Transposition” is anothermathematical term, and isnot the same as matrix tranpose. ENGG2013
Another pattern • The sign of each term is closely related to the number of transpositions required to obtain the second subscripts, starting from (1,2) for the 2x2 case or (1,2,3) for the 3x3 case. ENGG2013
The sign • Let p(1), p(2), …, p(n) be an order of 1,2,…,n. • For example p(1)=3, p(2) = 2, p(3)=1 is an ordering of 1, 2, 3. • Starting from (1,2,…,n), if we need an odd no. of transpositions to get ( p(1), p(2), …, p(n) ), we define the sign of (p(1), p(2),…,p(n)) be –1. • Otherwise, if we need an even no. of transpositions to get ( p(1), p(2), …, p(n) ), we define the sign of (p(1), p(2),…,p(n)) be +1. ENGG2013
Definition of nn determinant 1 • The summation is over all n! possible orderings p = ( p(1), p(2), …, p(n) ) of 1,2,…,n. • There are n! terms. • sgn(p) is either +1 or –1, usually called the signature or signum of p. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Determinant ENGG2013
Properties of determinant • Determinant of nn identity matrix equals 1. • Exchange two rows (or columns) multiply determinant by –1. • Multiply a row (or a column) by a constant k multiply the determinant by k. • Add a constant multiple of a row (column) to another row (column) no change • Additive property as in the 33 and 22 case. ENGG2013
Cofactor and the adjoint formula for matrix inverse • Cofactors are defined in a similar way as in the 3x3 case. • The cofactor of the (i,j)-entry of a matrix A, denoted by Cij, is defined as (–1)i+j Aij, where A is the determinant of the sub-matrix obtained by removing the i-th row and the j-th column. • We have similar expansion along a row or a column (also called the Laplace expansion) as in the 3x3 case. • The adjoint formula: transpose nxn identity A adjoint of A The formula in this form holds when det A = 0 also ENGG2013

MODULO ARITHMETIC ENGG2013
Mod 12 • Clock arithmetic 6+8= 2 mod 12 12 1 5+12 = 5 mod 12 11 10 2 9 3 4 8 7 5 6 ENGG2013
Mod 7 • Week arithmetic 1+9 = 3 mod 7 2+3 = 5 mod 7 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 6 ENGG2013
Mod 60 • 天干地支 arithmetic http://www.hko.gov.hk/gts/time/stemsandbranchesc.htm Year of rabbit ENGG2013
Mod n – formal definition • n is a fixed positive integer • Definition: a mod nis the remainder of a after division by n. • Example: 25 = 1 mod 12. • Addition and multiplication: If the sum or product of two integers is larger than or equal to n, divide by n and take the remainder. • Example: 2+10 = 0 mod 12. • Example: 25 = 3 mod 12. ENGG2013
More examples • 10 mod 7 = 3 • 4+5 mod 7 = 2 • 6+7 mod 7 = 6 • 27 mod 7 = 0 ENGG2013
Mod 26 Fix a one-to-one correspondence between the English alphabetsand the integers mod 26. Caesar’s cipher: shifting a letter to the right by 3is the same as adding 3 in mod 26 arithmetic. ENGG2013
Examples of mod 26 calculations • 3+19 = ? mod 26 • 13+20 = ? mod 26 • 34 = ? Mod 26 • 134 = ? Mod 26 ENGG2013
Peculiar phenomena in modulo arithmetic • Non-zero times non-zero may be zero • 49 = 0 mod 12 • 22 = 0 mod 4 • Multiplicative inverse may not exist • Cannot find an integer x such that 4x = 1 mod 12. 4-1 does not exist mod 12. ENGG2013
No fraction in modulo arithmetic • In mod 12, don’t write 1/3 or 3-1 because it does not exist. • But 5-1 is well-defined mod 12, because we can solve 5x=1 mod 12.Indeed, we have 55 = 1 mod 12. Therefore 5-1 = 5 mod 12. Fraction Fact from number theory: multiplicative inverse of x mod n existsif and only the gcd of x and n is 1. ENGG2013
HILL CIPHER ENGG2013
Hill cipher http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hill_cipher • Invented by L. S. Hill in 1929. • Inputs : String of English letters, A,B,…,Z. An nn matrix K, with entries drawn from 0,1,…,25.(The matrix K serves as the secret key. ) • Divide the input string into blocks of size n. • Identify A=0, B=1, C=2, …, Z=25. • Encryption: Multiply each block by K and then reduce mod 26. • Decryption: multiply each block by the inverse of K, and reduce mod 26. ENGG2013
Note • The decryption must be the inverse function of the encryption function. • It is required that K-1K = In mod 26. • Provided that det(K) has a multiplicative inverse mod 26, i.e., if det(K) and n has no common factor, the inverse of K can be computed by the adjoint formula for matrix inverse. • Inverse of an integer mod 26 can be obtained by trial and error. ENGG2013
Example • Plain text: “LOVE”, Secret Key: • “LO” • “VE” • 2, 3, 16, 5 are transformed to cipher text “CDQF” ENGG2013
How to decode? • Given “CDQF”, and the encryption matrix • How do we decrypt? • We need to compute the inverse of • Remind that all arithmetic are mod 26. There is no fraction and care should be taken in computing multiplicative inverse mod 26. ENGG2013
Determinant • The determinant of equals 20(7)-3(15),which is 17 mod 26. • Find the multiplicative inverse of 17 mod 26, i.e., find integer x such that 17x = 1 mod 26. • Just try all 26 possibilities for x: 171 = 17 mod 26 172= 8 mod 26 173 = 25 mod 26 174 = 16 mod 26 175 = 7 mod 26 176 = 24 mod 26 177 = 15 mod 26 178 = 6 mod 26 179= 23 mod 26 1710 = 14 mod 26 1711 = 5 mod 26 1712 = 22 mod 26 1713 = 13 mod 26 1714 = 4 mod 26 1715 = 21 mod 26 1716= 12 mod 26 1717 = 3 mod 26 1718 = 20 mod 26 1719 = 11 mod 26 1720 = 2 mod 26 1721 = 19 mod 26 1722 = 10 mod 26 1723= 1 mod 26 1724 = 18 mod 26 1725 = 9 mod 26 170 = 0 mod 26 ENGG2013
Computing the inverse mod 26 • From 1723= 1 mod 26, we know that the multiplicative inverse of 17 mod 26 is 23. • Using the formula for 2 2 matrix inverse we get Replace (17)-1 mod 26 by 23 ENGG2013
Decryption • Given the ciphertext “CDQF”, we decrypt by multiplying by • From the table in p.23, 11, 14, 21, 4 is “LOVE”. ENGG2013
