Title:
A note on efficient computation of cube roots in characteristic 3

Authors: Paulo S. L. M. Barreto

Abstract:

The cost of the folklore algorithm for computing cube roots in \F_{3^m} in standard polynomial basis is less that one multiplication, but still O(m^2). Here we show that, if \F_{3^m} is represented in trinomial basis as \F_3[x]/(x^m + ax^k + b) with a, b = \pm 1, the actual cost of computing cube roots in \F_{3^m} is only O(m).
