Combinatorial group theory and cryptography

In the presented work we focus on applications of decision problems from combinatorial group theory. Namely we analyse the Shpilrain-Zapata pro- tocol. We give formal proof that small cancellation groups are good platform for the protocol because the word problem is solvable in linear time and they are generic. We also analyse the complexity of the brute force attack on the protocol and show that in a theoretical way the protocol is immune to attack by adversary with arbitrary computing power
