"Homomorphic Encryption (or: my summer as a Fed)"

In this talk, I will describe homomorphic encryption, which are encryption schemes that allow one to evaluate polynomial functions on the encrypted data. I will introduce the basics of encryption and then the general theory of homomorphic encryption, and then discuss some of the applications to online privacy that I looked at during my summer research internship.
