Johannes Buchmann Biography

Johannes Buchmann is one of the most popular and richest Computer Scientist who was born on November 20, 1953 in Cologne, North Rhine- Westphalia, Germany.

Johannes Buchmann studied mathematics, physics, pedagogy and philosophy at the University of Cologne from 1974 to 1979 after graduating from high school in 1972 and completing his military service. After passing the first state examination for teaching at grammar schools in 1979, he taught mathematics at a Cologne secondary school from 1980 to 1983 while at the same time working as a research assistant at the university. In 1982 he did his doctorate at the university under the supervision of Hans-Joachim Stender. In 1984 he passed the second state examination. In 1985/86 he was with Hans Zassenhaus at Ohio State University on a scholarship from the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation. From 1986 to 1988 he was research assistant of Michael Pohst at the University of Düsseldorf, where he habilitated in 1988. Then he worked as professor of computer science at Saarland University. In 1966, he then was professor of computer science and mathematics at the Technische Universität Darmstadt. He retired in 2019.

Buchmann’s achievements include scientific essays on algorithms in algebraic number theory, the construction of new cryptographic methods and the use of cryptographic methods in practice. Due to his collaboration with Kálmán Győry he has the Erdős number 2. Buchmann dealt with algorithms in algebraic number theory and their application in cryptography. In 1988, he proposed with Hugh C. Williams a cryptographic system based on the discrete logarithmic problem in the ideal class group of imaginary-square number bodies (which, according to Carl Friedrich Gauss, is related to the theory of binary-square forms), which triggered further developments in cryptography with number bodies.
