| | | | What will be our next polymath project? A polymath project (Wikipedia) is a collaboration among mathematicians to solve important and difficult mathematical problems by coordinating many mathematicians to communicate with each other on finding the best route to the solution. The project began in January 2009 on Timothy Gowers's blog when he posted a problem... | |

| | | | Update (Jan 21) j) Polymath11 (?) Tim Gowers's proposed a polymath project on Frankl'sconjecture. If it will get off the ground we will have (with polymath10) two projects running in parallel which is very nice. (In the commentsJon Awbrey gave a links for a first in a series posts also on Frankl's conjecture, with the | |

| | So far in this series we've seen elliptic curves from many perspectives, including the elementary, algebraic, and programmatic ones. We implemented finite field arithmetic and connected it to our elliptic curve code. So we're in a perfect position to feast on the main course: how do we use elliptic curves to actually do cryptography? History As the reader has heard countless times in this series, an elliptic curve is a geometric object whose points have a surprising and well-defined notion of addition. |
