On Partial Lifting and the Elliptic Curve Discrete Logarithm Problem

چکیده
It has been suggested that a major obstacle in finding an index calculus attack on the elliptic curve discrete logarithm problem lies in the difficulty of lifting points from elliptic curves over finite fields to global fields. We explore the possibility of circumventing the problem of explicitly lifting points by investigating whether partial information about the lifting would be sufficient for solving the elliptic curve discrete logarithm problem. Along this line, we show that the elliptic curve discrete logarithm problem can be reduced to three partial lifting problems. Our reductions run in random polynomial time assuming certain conjectures, which are based on some well-known and widely accepted conjectures concerning the expected ranks of elliptic curves over the rationals.

The new protocol blind digital signature based on the discrete logarithm problem on elliptic curve
In recent years it has been trying that with regard to the question of computational complexity of discrete logarithm more strength and less in the elliptic curve than other hard issues, applications such as elliptic curve cryptography, a blind digital signature method, other methods such as encryption replacement DLP. In this paper, a new blind digital signature scheme based on elliptic curve...
متن کاملAn efficient blind signature scheme based on the elliptic curve discrete logarithm problem
Elliptic Curve Cryptosystems (ECC) have recently received significant attention by researchers due to their high performance such as low computational cost and small key size. In this paper a novel untraceable blind signature scheme is presented. Since the security of proposed method is based on difficulty of solving discrete logarithm over an elliptic curve, performance of the proposed scheme ...
متن کاملGeneralized Jacobian and Discrete Logarithm Problem on Elliptic Curves
Let E be an elliptic curve over the finite field F_{q}, P a point in E(F_{q}) of order n, and Q a point in the group generated by P. The discrete logarithm problem on E is to find the number k such that Q = kP. In this paper we reduce the discrete logarithm problem on E[n] to the discrete logarithm on the group F*_{q} , the multiplicative group of nonzero elements of Fq, in the case where n | q...
متن کاملAn 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...
متن کاملOn Remarks of Lifting Problems for Elliptic Curves
The Elliptic Curve Discrete Logarithm Problem(ECDLP) is known to be an exponential time problem except the cases of smooth curves, supersingular curves and anomalous curves. Recently, several new methods to solve ECDLP on a prime eld were proposed. All of them try to solve ECDLP on a prime eld by lifting a given elliptic curve to low rank elliptic curves de ned over the rationals. In this exten...
