A mean value formula for elliptic curves

Rongquan Feng and Hongfeng Wu

Abstract: It is proved in this paper that for any point on an elliptic curve, the mean value of $x$-coordinates of its $n$-division points is the same as its $x$-coordinate and the mean value of $y$-coordinates of its $n$-division points is the $n$ times of its $y$-coordinate.
