Abstract: A computer-implemented method for memory management in a computer system configured for generating a signature of a binary data message m using a key B of a predetermined lattice-based structure is proposed, which comprises: determining coefficients of a 2×2 signature generation matrix SG, wherein the non-diagonal coefficients of the signature generation matrix SG are complex polynomials with a non-zero imaginary part, and the diagonal coefficients of the signature generation matrix SG are real polynomials; and determining a LDL representation of the signature generation matrix SG according to which SG is represented by a matrix product L.D.
