On the complexity of computing integral bases of function fields

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a plane curve given by an equation $f(x,y)=0$ with $f\in K[x][y]$ a monic squarefree polynomial. We study the problem of computing an integral basis of the algebraic function field $K(\mathcal{C})$ and give new complexity bounds for three known algorithms dealing with this problem. For each algorithm, we study its subroutines and, when it is possible, we modify or replace them so as to take advantage of faster primitives. Then, we combine complexity results to derive an overall complexity estimate for each algorithm. In particular, we modify an algorithm due to Böhm et al. and achieve a quasi-optimal runtime.

Counting points on hyperelliptic curves with explicit real multiplication in arbitrary genus

We present a probabilistic Las Vegas algorithm for computing the local zeta function of a genus-$g$ hyperelliptic curve defined over $\mathbb F_q$ with explicit real multiplication (RM) by an order $\Z[η]$ in a degree-$g$ totally real number field. It is based on the approaches by Schoof and Pila in a more favorable case where we can split the $\ell$-torsion into $g$ kernels of endomorphisms, as introduced by Gaudry, Kohel, and Smith in genus 2. To deal with these kernels in any genus, we adapt a technique that the author, Gaudry, and Spaenlehauer introduced to model the $\ell$-torsion by structured polynomial systems. Applying this technique to the kernels, the systems we obtain are much smaller and so is the complexity of solving them. Our main result is that there exists a constant $c>0$ such that, for any fixed $g$, this algorithm has expected time and space complexity $O((\log q)^{c})$ as $q$ grows and the characteristic is large enough. We prove that $c\le 9$ and we also conjecture that the result still holds for $c=7$.

Counting points on genus-3 hyperelliptic curves with explicit real multiplication

We propose a Las Vegas probabilistic algorithm to compute the zeta function of a genus-3 hyperelliptic curve defined over a finite field $\mathbb F_q$, with explicit real multiplication by an order $\mathbb Z[η]$ in a totally real cubic field. Our main result states that this algorithm requires an expected number of $\widetilde O((\log q)^6)$ bit-operations, where the constant in the $\widetilde O()$ depends on the ring $\mathbb Z[η]$ and on the degrees of polynomials representing the endomorphism $η$. As a proof-of-concept, we compute the zeta function of a curve defined over a 64-bit prime field, with explicit real multiplication by $\mathbb Z[2\cos(2π/7)]$.

Improved Complexity Bounds for Counting Points on Hyperelliptic Curves

We present a probabilistic Las Vegas algorithm for computing the local zeta function of a hyperelliptic curve of genus $g$ defined over $\mathbb{F}_q$. It is based on the approaches by Schoof and Pila combined with a modeling of the $\ell$-torsion by structured polynomial systems. Our main result improves on previously known complexity bounds by showing that there exists a constant $c>0$ such that, for any fixed $g$, this algorithm has expected time and space complexity $O((\log q)^{cg})$ as $q$ grows and the characteristic is large enough.
