Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) This paper deals with efficient algorithms for computing linear properties of addition modulo 2^n. Park et al. gave an linear(⊝(n))-time algorithm for computing linear probability for given input and output masking values. This paper presents a new efficient algorithm for linear properties of addition: a linear-time algorithm which computes the maximum linear probability for given input masking values. The previously known algorithm required exhaustive (exponential-time) computation. The algorithm facilitates linear cryptanalysis of many block ciphers and other cryptographic primitives that use addition modulo 2^n.
