Dear Simon, dear all,
@all: forwarding from sage-gsoc
@Simon: your project seems great for a GSoc project. I am
unsure about SageMath capabilities to deal with hyperellitpic
curves but it has some features
https://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/reference/arithmetic_curves/sage/schemes/hyperelliptic_curves/hyperelliptic_finite_field.html
Since your project not listed on the wiki
https://wiki.sagemath.org/GSoC/2021 the possible candidates
for mentors might not be around. I forward your message to the
sage-nt group.
Best
Vincent

Sujet : [sage-gsoc] Wanted: Mentor for Project with Hyperelliptic Curves

Hello all,
my name is Simon and I am currently a postgraduate student in Computer
Science at the University of Cambridge.
As a GSoC 2021 project, I would be interested in extending SageMath's
implementation of Jacobians of hyperelliptic curves. In particular, I'd
like to add point counting methods over finite fields (relevant paper
<https://hal.inria.fr/inria-00512403/document>) and implement the Weil
pairing (and possibly additional pairings) on hyperelliptic curves
(relevant paper
<http://cacr.uwaterloo.ca/techreports/2009/cacr2009-30.pdf>).
Note that SageMath already supports those over elliptic curves, but
currently lacks support for hyperelliptic curves. In contrast, Magma
already includes those methods (see Magma documentation here
<https://magma.maths.usyd.edu.au/magma/handbook/text/1557>), so I think
it would be a great addition if this functionality is also supported by
SageMath.
If anybody can imagine being a mentor for this project please get in
touch with me so we can discuss this project a bit further. Likewise, if
you have any other questions do not hesitate to contact me.
Best regards,
Simon
