Hello curves fans, another article in my introductory series about elliptic curves used in cryptography is out[1]. This time it is about point addition on elliptic curve in simple Weierstrass form over R and GF(p). For those following my discussion with Brad earlier, you can see the graphical representation of infinite straight line over GF(p) torus in the video[2] - around 0:45 it becomes closed. I would appreciate any feedback regarding the article format, visualizations or anything else - just, please, bear in mind that the intended audience are real beginners and therefore I have omitted some things and want to explain them in the future separately.
Cheers, Dominik [1] https://trustica.cz/en/2018/03/15/elliptic-curves-point-addition/ [2] https://youtu.be/Vrx7SNnYHfI _______________________________________________ Curves mailing list Curves@moderncrypto.org https://moderncrypto.org/mailman/listinfo/curves
