Trusted Curve

Generating a trusted curve as the start of isogeny-based protocols

Implementations of the proof of isogeny knowledge from the paper Supersingular Curves You Can Trust.

Building on Linux

cd c-impl
make
make test

Building on Apple M1

cd c-impl
make ARCH=M1
make test ARCH=M1

Generating and Verifying a Proof

The prove_xxx executables can be run with the --initial argument to start from the curve with j‑invariant 1728. If no argument is passed, the program expects a starting curve on stdin.

The verify_xxx executables expect the output of the corresponding prove_xxx executable on stdin. In other words, the following sequence of invocations is typical:

./prove_434 --initial > proof0.txt
./verify_434 < proof0.txt | tail -n1 > curve1.txt
./prove_434 < curve1.txt > proof1.txt
./verify_434 < proof1.txt | tail -n1 > curve2.txt
./prove_434 < curve2.txt > proof2.txt
./verify_434 < proof2.txt | tail -n1 > curve3.txt
# ...

Verification in Sage (slow!)

The verify.sage script reads a proof on stdin and verifies it. The program expects one of the arguments --p434, --p503, --p610, --p751 to specify the parameter set. It requires sage >= 9.7 and the pycryptodome package.
