Elliptic Curves: Number Theory and Cryptography. Discrete Mathematics and Its Applications
by Lawrence C. Washington
Published 1 January 2008
Elliptic curves have played an increasingly important role in number theory and related fields over the last several decades, most notably in areas such as cryptography, factorization, and the proof of Fermat's Last Theorem. However, most books on the subject assume a rather high level of mathematical sophistication, and few are truly accessible to
