Cryptography based on hardness of finding solutions of diophantine equations.
This is related to crypto and there is money in crypto, so someone may profit :) With latex on mathoverflow [1]. For the general approach, check [2] Working over $K=\mathbb{Q}[x_1,...,x_n,y_1,...y_m]$. Let $f_i=g_i \cdot (h_i(y_i)+l_i(x_i))$ where $l_i$ is linear and depends on only $x$ variables and $h_i$ depends on only $y$ variables. There are no restrictions on $g_i$. Let $F=\sum_{i=1}^k f_i$ be given as sum of monomials. If we know the set of $f_i$ (the secret trapdoor) and we are given $y_i$ , for sufficiently general $l_i$, we can find the solutions of $F=0$ as the solutions of the linear in $x_i$ system of linear equations $(h_i(y_i)+l_i(x_i))=0$ >Q1 Can we find $f_i$ such that solving $F=0$ is hard without knowing the trapdoor? >Q2 Assume an oracle gives many solutions to $F=0$, can we still get hardness results for new solutions?
