MHB How to Use Elliptic Curve Cryptography to Find Inverses and Points on the Curve?

AI Thread Summary
To solve the elliptic curve equations y² = x³ + x + 1 mod 17 and y² = x³ + 3x + 1 mod 13, one approach is to evaluate the equations for all integer values of x within the specified modulus. This method allows for the identification of all points on the curve. Once the points are determined, inverses can also be calculated based on the results. Additionally, visualizing the curves by plotting the points can enhance understanding of the relationships between them. This process aids in improving calculus skills related to elliptic curve cryptography.

Hi vokoyo,

How about filling in $x=0, ..., 16$.
Those are all the relevant possibilities for $x$.
After that the same results will appear periodically.

That way we find all the points on the curve.
And from the results we can also find all inverses, can't we?
 
Thank you very much for your advice and suggestion

Please show me your sample solution draft
so that I can improve my calculus skills

I fact I would like to draw the curve line or point by point

Thread 'Trigonometry problem of interest'

Seemingly by some mathematical coincidence, a hexagon of sides 2,2,7,7, 11, and 11 can be inscribed in a circle of radius 7. The other day I saw a math problem on line, which they said came from a Polish Olympiad, where you compute the length x of the 3rd side which is the same as the radius, so that the sides of length 2,x, and 11 are inscribed on the arc of a semi-circle. The law of cosines applied twice gives the answer for x of exactly 7, but the arithmetic is so complex that the...

Thread 'Six Pencil Puzzle'

Is it possible to arrange six pencils such that each one touches the other five? If so, how? This is an adaption of a Martin Gardner puzzle only I changed it from cigarettes to pencils and left out the clues because PF folks don’t need clues. From the book “My Best Mathematical and Logic Puzzles”. Dover, 1994.

Thread 'Imaginary Pythagoras'

Thread 'Imaginary Pythagoras'

I posted this in the Lame Math thread, but it's got me thinking. Is there any validity to this? Or is it really just a mathematical trick? Naively, I see that i2 + plus 12 does equal zero2. But does this have a meaning? I know one can treat the imaginary number line as just another axis like the reals, but does that mean this does represent a triangle in the complex plane with a hypotenuse of length zero? Ibix offered a rendering of the diagram using what I assume is matrix* notation...
