Pairing-based cryptography is a relatively young field revolving around a family of functions known as pairings, or bilinear maps, whose remarkable properties allow the creation of novel cryptosystems that are otherwise difficult or impossible to construct. This book begins by giving abstract definitions of pairings and related hardness problems, and showing how they are used in cryptography.

Produktbeschreibung
Pairing-based cryptography is a relatively young
field revolving around a family of functions known as
pairings, or bilinear maps, whose remarkable
properties allow the creation of novel
cryptosystems that are otherwise difficult or
impossible to construct. This book begins
by giving abstract definitions of pairings and
related hardness problems, and showing how they are
used in cryptography. Later chapters discuss methods
for finding elliptic curves yielding suitable
pairings, along with algorithms for computing on
them. The final chapters describe vital
optimizations. Aside from low-level arithmetic, this
text quotes algorithms unlikely to be taught in a
basic course in abstract algebra, enabling a
mathematically inclined programmer to implement
pairings without referring to any other sources.
