nsh: i'm not expert, but that sounds like how pairing works

nsh: though to an extension field of sufficient size so that DLP isn't easy there

real_or_random: dettman had come up with a faster inverse that works for us, but no one got around to implementing it in C completely (dettman implemented it in java). I don't know how the one in that paper compares, but it might be easier to implement.
<sarang>
gmaxwell: specific to 25519's prime?
<sarang>
er, secp...
<sarang>
(I'm so used to thinking 25519...)
ddustin has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
<gmaxwell>
it would work for a variety of numbers. (you'd implement it specific to a particular value)
<sarang>
Is there code available? I'm curious to see it

Hi, sorry if this not the correct channel for this question: There's any group or channel for dicussion about blockchain papers *in general* (not restricted to bitcoin).

I personally enjoy seeing discussion here about quality research work done in applied cryptography
<sipa>
this may be a controversial opinion, but if they're vaguely applicable to bitcoin or hypothetical systems that work similarly, it's probably on topic here. if they're not, they're probably mostly buzzwords :)

I'm reading the Avalanche consensus whitepaper... I'm interested in dicussing with other people their idea or having a little help with their analysis maths.
