Abstract:
We show that the elliptic curve analogue of the pseudo-random number function, introduced recently by M. Naor and O. Reingold, produces a sequence with large linear complexity. This result generalizes a similar result of F. Gri#n and I. E. Shparlinski for the linear complexity of the original function of M. Naor and O. Reingold. The proof is based on some results about the distribution of subsetproducts in finite fields and some properties of division polynomials of elliptic curves. 1
