Extending Baby-step Giant-step algorithm for FACTOR problem

  • Martin Stanek
چکیده

Recently, a non-abelian factorization problem together with an associated asymmetric encryption scheme were introduced in [1]. We show how a classical baby-step giant-step algorithm for discrete logarithm can be extended to this problem. This contradicts the claims regarding the complexity of the proposed problem.

Adaption of Pollard's kangaroo algorithm to the FACTOR problem

In [BKT11] Baba, Kotyada and Teja introduced the FACTOR problem over non-abelian groups as base of an ElGamal-like cryptosystem. They conjectured that there is no better method than the naive one to solve the FACTOR problem in a general group. Shortly afterwards Stanek published an extension of the baby-step giant-step algorithm disproving this conjecture [Sta11]. Since baby-step giant-step met...

Baby-Step Giant-Step Algorithms for Non-uniform Distributions

The baby-step giant-step algorithm, due to Shanks, may be used to solve the discrete logarithm problem in arbitrary groups. The paper explores a generalisation of this algorithm, where extra baby steps may be computed after carrying out giant steps (thus increasing the giant step size). The paper explores the problem of deciding how many, and when, extra baby steps should be computed so that th...

A Probabilistic Baby-step Giant-step Algorithm

In this paper, a new algorithm to solve the discrete logarithm problem is presented which is similar to the usual baby-step giant-step algorithm. Our algorithm exploits the order of the discrete logarithm in the multiplicative group of a finite field. Using randomization with parallelized collision search, our algorithm indicates some weakness in NIST curves over prime fields which are consider...

Some baby-step giant-step algorithms for the low hamming weight discrete logarithm problem

In this paper, we present several baby-step giant-step algorithms for the low hamming weight discrete logarithm problem. In this version of the discrete log problem, we are required to find a discrete logarithm in a finite group of order approximately 2m, given that the unknown logarithm has a specified number of 1’s, say t, in its binary representation. Heiman and Odlyzko presented the first a...

A New Baby-Step Giant-Step Algorithm and Some Applications to Cryptanalysis

We describe a new variant of the well known Baby-Step Giant-Step algorithm in the case of some discrete logarithms with a special structure. More precisely, we focus on discrete logarithms equal to products in groups of unknown order. As an example of application, we show that this new algorithm enables to cryptanalyse a variant of the GPS scheme proposed by Girault and Lefranc at CHES 2004 con...
