    • Constructor Detail

      • ECFieldF2m

        public ECFieldF2m(int m)
        Creates an elliptic curve characteristic 2 finite field which has 2^m elements with normal basis.
        Parameters:
        m - with 2^m being the number of elements.
        Throws:
        IllegalArgumentException - if m is not positive.
      • ECFieldF2m

        public ECFieldF2m(int m,
                          BigInteger rp)
        Creates an elliptic curve characteristic 2 finite field which has 2^m elements with polynomial basis. The reduction polynomial for this field is based on rp whose i-th bit corresponds to the i-th coefficient of the reduction polynomial.

        Note: A valid reduction polynomial is either a trinomial (X^m + X^k + 1 with m > k >= 1) or a pentanomial (X^m + X^k3 + X^k2 + X^k1 + 1 with m > k3 > k2 > k1 >= 1).

        Parameters:
        m - with 2^m being the number of elements.
        rp - the BigInteger whose i-th bit corresponds to the i-th coefficient of the reduction polynomial.
        Throws:
        NullPointerException - if rp is null.
        IllegalArgumentException - if m is not positive, or rp does not represent a valid reduction polynomial.
      • ECFieldF2m

        public ECFieldF2m(int m,
                          int[] ks)
        Creates an elliptic curve characteristic 2 finite field which has 2^m elements with polynomial basis. The reduction polynomial for this field is based on ks whose content contains the order of the middle term(s) of the reduction polynomial. Note: A valid reduction polynomial is either a trinomial (X^m + X^k + 1 with m > k >= 1) or a pentanomial (X^m + X^k3 + X^k2 + X^k1 + 1 with m > k3 > k2 > k1 >= 1), so ks should have length 1 or 3.
        Parameters:
        m - with 2^m being the number of elements.
        ks - the order of the middle term(s) of the reduction polynomial. Contents of this array are copied to protect against subsequent modification.
        Throws:
        NullPointerException - if ks is null.
        IllegalArgumentException - ifm is not positive, or the length of ks is neither 1 nor 3, or values in ks are not between m-1 and 1 (inclusive) and in descending order.

        Returns a BigInteger whose i-th bit corresponds to the i-th coefficient of the reduction polynomial for polynomial basis or null for normal basis.
        Returns:
        a BigInteger whose i-th bit corresponds to the i-th coefficient of the reduction polynomial for polynomial basis or null for normal basis.
      • getMidTermsOfReductionPolynomial

        public int[] getMidTermsOfReductionPolynomial()

        Compares this finite field for equality with the specified object.
        Overrides:
