2nd Edition

Elliptic Curves Number Theory and Cryptography, Second Edition

By Lawrence C. Washington Copyright 2008

    Like its bestselling predecessor, Elliptic Curves: Number Theory and Cryptography, Second Edition develops the theory of elliptic curves to provide a basis for both number theoretic and cryptographic applications. With additional exercises, this edition offers more comprehensive coverage of the fundamental theory, techniques, and application
