Description
This is the unique book on cross-fertilisations between stream ciphers and number theory. It systematically and comprehensively covers
known connections between the two areas that are available only in research papers. Some parts of this book consist of new research results
that are not available elsewhere. In addition to exercises, over thirty research problems are presented in this book. In this revised
edition almost every chapter was updated, and some chapters were completely rewritten. It is useful as a textbook for a graduate course
on the subject, as well as a reference book for researchers in related fields.
