“Discrete logarithm” in this context alludes to the problem of calculating discrete logarithms for elliptic curves over finite fields.
- ColinWright 6y agoNot necessarily, the term "discrete logarithm" also alludes to calculating them in other contexts such as modulo p for p prime. It's not always on elliptic curves, and when I started in this field it was never on ECs. But your comment is largely true, this is a minor point ... I make it only for completeness, and for people who later find this comment.
