Abstract

In this article, we first reformulate the wedge attack within a cleaner algebraic-geometric framework and then extend it to multi-homogeneous systems over fields of arbitrary characteristic. Building on these tools, we apply the resulting multi-homogeneous wedge attack to the security analysis of SNOVA.
