A Remark Concerning m-Divisibility and the Discrete Logarithm in the Divisor Class Group of Curves

Frey, Gerhard, Ruck, Hans-Georg·1994·Mathematics of Computation

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to show that the computation of the discrete logarithm in the m-torsion part of the divisor class group of a curve X over a finite field ko (with char(ko) prime to m), or over a local field k with residue field ko, can be reduced to the computation of the discrete logarithm in k0(4m)* . For this purpose we use a variant of the (tame) Tate pairing for Abelian varieties over local fields. In the same way the problem to determine all linear combinations of a finite set of elements in the divisor class group of a curve over k or ko which are divisible by m is reduced to the computation of the discrete logarithm in ko(Cm)* -

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
