Title:
Fast hashing onto elliptic curves over fields of characteristic 3

Authors: Paulo S. L. M. Barreto, Hae Yong Kim

Abstract:

We describe a fast hash algorithm that maps arbitrary messages
onto points of an elliptic curve defined over a finite field of
characteristic 3. Our new scheme runs in time O(m^2) for curves
over \GF{3^m}. The best previous algorithm for this task runs
in time O(m^3). Experimental data confirms the speedup by a
factor O(m), or approximately a hundred times for practical m
values. Our results apply for both standard and normal basis
representations of \GF{3^m}.
