    Abstract

    This paper sets new software speed records for high-security Diffie-Hellman computations, specifically 251-bit elliptic-curve variablebase-point scalar multiplication. In one second of computation on a $200 Core 2 Quad Q6600 CPU, this paper’s software performs 30000 251-bit scalar multiplications on the binary Edwards curve d(x+x2 +y +y2) = (x + x2)(y + y2) over the field F2[t]/(t251 + t7 + t4 + t2 + 1) where d = t57 + t54 + t44 + 1. The paper’s field-arithmetic techniques can be applied in much more generality but have a particularly efficient interaction with the completeness of addition formulas for binary Edwards curves.
