Description

  • Speaker

    Cyril Bouvier - Institut de mathématiques de Bordeaux

In this talk, I'll prove some divisibility properties of the cardinality of elliptic curve groups modulo primes. These proofs explain the good behavior of certain parameters when using Montgomery or Edwards curves in the setting of the elliptic curve method (ECM) for integer factorization. The ideas behind the proofs can be used to find new infinite families of elliptic curves with good division properties increasing the success probability of ECM This is a joint work with Razvan Barbulescu, Joppe W. Bos, Thorsten Kleinjung and Peter L. Montgomery.

    CryptoVerif is a security protocol verifier sound in the computational model of cryptography. It produces proofs by sequences of games, like those done manually by cryptographers. It has an automatic proof strategy and can also be guided by the user. It provides a generic method for specifying security assumptions on many cryptographic primitives, and can prove secrecy, authentication, and[…]
