Chapter 4. Element functions
void element_pow3_zn(element_t x, element_t a1, element_t n1, element_t a2, element_t n2, element_t
a3, element_t n3)
Also sets x = a1 n1 a2 n2 a3 n3 , but n1, n2, n3 must be elements of a ring Z n for some integer n.
void element_pp_init(element_pp_t p, element_t in)
Prepare to exponentiate an element in, and store preprocessing information in p.
void element_pp_clear(element_pp_t p)
Clear p. Should be called after p is no longer needed.
void element_pp_pow(element_t out, mpz_t power, element_pp_t p)
Raise in to power and store the result in out, where in is a previously preprocessed element, that is, the second
argument passed to a previous element_pp_init call.
void element_pp_pow_zn(element_t out, element_t power, element_pp_t p)
Same except power is an element of Z n for some integer n.
void element_dlog_brute_force(element_t x, element_t g, element_t h)
Computes x such that g x = h by brute force, where x lies in a field where element_set_mpz() makes sense.
void element_dlog_pollard_rho(element_t x, element_t g, element_t h)
Computes x such that g x = h using Pollard rho method, where x lies in a field where element_set_mpz()
makes sense.
