Abstract. Using a recent idea of Gaudry and exploiting rational representations of algebraic tori, we present an index calculus type algorithm for solving the discrete logarithm pr...
This paper aims at introducing generalized Jacobians as a new candidate for discrete logarithm (DL) based cryptography. The motivation for this work came from the observation that ...
A number of signature schemes and standards have been recently designed, based on the Discrete Logarithm problem. In this paper we conduct design validation of such schemes while t...

Recently, several public key exchange protocols based on symbolic computation in non-commutative (semi)groups were proposed as a more efficient alternative to well established prot...
The black-box field (BBF) extraction problem is, for a given field F, to determine a secret field element hidden in a black-box which allows to add and multiply values in F in ...
