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

Suppose ,instead of the usual x,y coordinate system with an I basis vector along the x -axis and a corresponding j basis vector along the y-axis we instead have a different pair of basis vectors ,call them e and f along their respective axes. I have seen that this is an important subject in maths My question is what physical applications does such a model apply to? I am asking here because I have devoted quite a lot of time in the past to understanding convectors and the dual...
Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. In Dirac’s Principles of Quantum Mechanics published in 1930 he introduced a “convenient notation” he referred to as a “delta function” which he treated as a continuum analog to the discrete Kronecker delta. The Kronecker delta is simply the indexed components of the identity operator in matrix algebra Source: https://www.physicsforums.com/insights/what-exactly-is-diracs-delta-function/ by...
