Title: Code- and Lattice-Based Signature Scheme Defined Over Extra Special p-group

Description: It is our strong belief that the use of extra special p-group algebra is an equivalent if not potentially stronger form than LWE over ring as group algebra is a more general algebraic structure compare to polynomial ring used in LWE over ring. To demonstrate that our scheme has good performance, we will present some experimental results which are based on a software implementation.
