This presentation appears to be the contents of a general lecture on `public key cryptography'. It includes many aspects of various kinds of cryptosystems. It covers the RSA cryptosystem, discrete logarithms in finite fields, the Diffie-Hellman key exchange scheme, the Massey-Omura cryptosystem and the ElGamal cryptosystem based on the discrete logarithm problem, the Silver-Pohlig-Hellman algorithm, and knapsack cryptosystems. The presentation is nice as the theory has been supplemented with a good number of examples to make the text clear and many remarks which may help any reader to distinguish between various cryptosystems. For the entire collection see [Zbl 1022.00013].
