Why do we get a connected 2-regular graph?

In reading "PUBLIC-KEY CRYPTOSYSTEM BASED ON ISOGENIES" by Rostovtsev and Stolbunov, they claim on page 8 that the set $U=\{E_i(\mathbb{F}_p)\}$ of elliptic curves with a specific prime $l$ ...

Why is the kernel cyclic if and only if the walk does not backtrack?

I'm reading Mathematics of Isogeny Based Cryptography by Luca De Feo. At some point (pg. 32), he says "A walk of length $e_A$ in the $l_A$-isogeny graph corresponds to a kernel of size $l_A^{e_A};...

Diffie Hellman cryptography based on graph isomorphism?

We got a cryptographic algorithm and computer implementation based on graph isomorphism. An isomorphism between two graphs is a bijection between their vertices that pre serves the edges. For a graph $...

Reduced echelon form of sparce matrices and constructing hash function

Let $G$ be a $d$-regular graph, and $A$ be the incidence matrix of $G$. Also suppose $B$ is a reduced echelon form of $A$ such that computations are in $\mathbb F_2$. Given matrix $B$, can we find ...
