Abstract

Two-dimensional discrete logarithm problem in a finite group G with addition as the group operation is a generalization of the classical discrete logarithm problem and consists in solving the equation Q = n1P1 + n2P2 with respect to n1, n2 for the specified [xxx] under the assumption that there exists solution with −N1 ≤ n1 ≤ N1, −N2 ≤ n2 ≤ N2. In 2004, Gaudry and Schost have proposed an algorithm solving this problem with the average complexity [xxx] of group operations in G where (under standard heuristic assumptions) c ⋲ 2.43, N = 4N1N2, N → 1. In 2009, Galbraith and Ruprai improved this algorithm to obtain c ⋲ 2.36.

In this paper we prove that for the group of points of an elliptic curve over a finite prime field having an effective automorphism φ of order 6 the average complexity of the Gaudry- Schost algorithm for the two-dimensional discrete logarithm problem with P2 = φ(P1) and N1 = N2 is at most [xxx], where c ⋲ 0.9781.
