An ECDLP problem

Featured Replies

Problem is to compute the ECDLP given:

  • A finite integer field (Zp,+,*) as p ranges over primes
  • y2=x3-5x+4 where P=(-1.65, 2.79) and Q=(-0.35, 2.39)

 

I don't necessarily want the answer, i want to know where to start and how to get to it :) ...

Hmm, nobody really wants to nudge in any direction :(

 

 

Maybe it's just the notation, or maybe i expressed it incorrectly? Let me expand/explain/fix:

 

 

So, given E, over finite field K (which is an abelian group of integers (+,*) mod p as p ranges over primes), given P∈E(K), given Q∈G:=<P>, all i need to do find k∈Z such that Q=kP, well maybe first translate it from math to a language i speak :)

 

Time to go read more
