Geometric Key Establishment

We propose a new class of key establishment schemes which are based on geometric generalizations of the classical Diffie-Hellman. The simplest of our schemes – based on the geometry of the unit circle – uses only multiplication of rational numbers by integers and addition of rational numbers in its key creation. Its first computer implementation works significantly faster than all known implementations of Diffie-Hellman. Preliminary estimations show that our schemes are resistant to attacks. This resistance follows the pattern of the discrete logarithm problem and hardness of multidimensional lattice problems.
