RISC Seminar

















  The Eta Pairing

Speaker:Steven Galbraith (Royal Holloway)
Date/Time:  Friday 21.01.05, 16.15 h
Location:Lorentz Center, Leiden University, Room 201 (Huygens Building)
Abstract: We introduce a new pairing on certain supersingular curves which is very closely related to the Tate pairing, but which has some implementation advantages. We interpret the results of Duursma and Lee in terms of this pairing and we describe a fast pairing on genus 2 curves in characteristic 2.
