Fast 4 way vectorized ladder for the complete set of Montgomery curves

Huseyin Hisil, Berkan Egrice, and Mert Yassi

Abstract

This paper introduces 4 way vectorization of Montgomery ladder on any Montgomery form elliptic curve. Our algorithm takes 2M^4+1S^4 (M^4: A vector of four field multiplications, S^4: A vector of four field squarings) per ladder step for variable-scalar variable-point multiplication. This paper also introduces new formulas for doing arithmetic over GF(2^255-19).
