Abstract

We study distance functions on the set of ordinary (or non-supersingular) elliptic curves in short Weierstrass form (or simplified Weierstrass form) over a finite field of characteristic three. Mishra and Gupta (2008) firstly construct distance functions on the set of elliptic curves in short Weierstrass form over any prime field of characteristic greater than three. Afterward, Vetro (2011) constructs some other distance functions on the set of elliptic curves in short Weierstrass form over any prime field of characteristic greater than three. Recently, Hakuta (2015) has proposed distance functions on the set of ordinary elliptic curves in short Weierstrass form over any finite field of characteristic two. However, to our knowledge, no analogous result is known in the characteristic three case. In this paper, we shall prove that one can construct distance functions on the set of ordinary elliptic curves in short Weierstrass form over any finite field of characteristic three. A cryptographic application of our distance functions is also discussed.
