We study the complexity of deciding whether a given homogeneous multivariate polynomial has a nontrivial root over a finite field. Given a homogeneous algebraic circuit C that com...
We introduce an efficient way of performing polynomial multiplication in a class of finite fields GF(pm ) in the frequency domain. The Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) based frequency...
D. Wan very recently proved an asymptotic version of a conjecture of Hansen and Mullen concerning the distribution of irreducible polynomials over finite fields. In this note we ...
A cryptographic pairing evaluates as an element of a finite extension field, and the evaluation itself involves a considerable amount of extension field arithmetic. It is recogn...
In this contribution we introduce a low-complexity bit-parallel algorithm for computing square roots over binary extension fields. Our proposed method can be applied for any type ...
