چکیده

In their seminal paper, Miyaji, Nakabayashi and Takano [12] describe a simple method for the creation of elliptic curves of prime order with embedding degree 3, 4, or 6. Such curves are important for the realisation of pairing-based cryptosystems on ordinary (non-supersingular) elliptic curves. We provide an alternative derivation of their results, and extend them to allow for the generation of many more suitable curves.

On prime-order elliptic curves with embedding

We further analyze the solutions to the Diophantine equations from which prime-order elliptic curves of embedding degrees k = 3, 4 or 6 (MNT curves) may be obtained. We give an explicit algorithm to generate such curves. We derive a heuristic lower bound for the number E(z) of MNT curves with k = 6 and discriminant D ≤ z, and compare this lower bound with experimental data.

On Near Prime-Order Elliptic Curves with Small Embedding Degrees

In this paper, we extend the method of Scott and Barreto and present an explicit and simple algorithm to generate families of generalized MNT elliptic curves. Our algorithm allows us to obtain all families of generalized MNT curves with any given cofactor. Then, we analyze the complex multiplication equations of these families of curves and transform them into generalized Pell equation. As an e...

An Efficient Threshold Verifiable Multi-Secret Sharing Scheme Using Generalized Jacobian of Elliptic Curves

‎In a (t,n)-threshold secret sharing scheme‎, ‎a secret s is distributed among n participants such that any group of t or more participants can reconstruct the secret together‎, ‎but no group of fewer than t participants can do‎. In this paper, we propose a verifiable (t,n)-threshold multi-secret sharing scheme based on Shao and Cao‎, ‎and the intractability of the elliptic curve discrete logar...

Generating Elliptic Curves over Finite Fields Part I: Generating by Complex Multiplication

We study the theory of rational points on elliptic curves over nite elds and the theory of complex multiplication through which we construct elliptic curves over F p such that their orders of the group of rational points over F p are of the form mr where r is a prime and m is a small integer.
