Apparatus and computer program product for performing data compression processing using algebraic torus

摘要

An encryption processing unit executes an arithmetic operation decided in advance and outputs an arithmetic result as an element on an algebraic torus. A compressing unit outputs, when the arithmetic result is an exceptional point representing an element on the algebraic torus that cannot be compressed by a compression map for compressing an element on the algebraic torus into affine representation, a compression result obtained by compressing the arithmetic result according to the compression map and outputs, when the arithmetic result is the exceptional point, an element belonging to a specific set decided in advance that does not overlap a set to which a compression result obtained by compressing the arithmetic result, which is not the exceptional point, belongs.
