Dear Simon, dear all,

@all: forwarding from sage-gsoc

@Simon: your project seems great for a GSoc project. I am
unsure about SageMath capabilities to deal with hyperellitpic
curves but it has some features

https://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/reference/arithmetic_curves/sage/schemes/hyperelliptic_curves/hyperelliptic_finite_field.html

Since your project not listed on the wiki
https://wiki.sagemath.org/GSoC/2021 the possible candidates
for mentors might not be around. I forward your message to the
sage-nt group.

Best
Vincent

Sujet : [sage-gsoc] Wanted: Mentor for Project with Hyperelliptic Curves

Hello all,

my name is Simon and I am currently a postgraduate student in Computer Science at the University of Cambridge.

As a GSoC 2021 project, I would be interested in extending SageMath's implementation of Jacobians of hyperelliptic curves. In particular, I'd like to add point counting methods over finite fields (relevant paper <https://hal.inria.fr/inria-00512403/document>) and implement the Weil pairing (and possibly additional pairings) on hyperelliptic curves (relevant paper <http://cacr.uwaterloo.ca/techreports/2009/cacr2009-30.pdf>). Note that SageMath already supports those over elliptic curves, but currently lacks support for hyperelliptic curves. In contrast, Magma already includes those methods (see Magma documentation here <https://magma.maths.usyd.edu.au/magma/handbook/text/1557>), so I think it would be a great addition if this functionality is also supported by SageMath.

If anybody can imagine being a mentor for this project please get in touch with me so we can discuss this project a bit further. Likewise, if you have any other questions do not hesitate to contact me.

Best regards,
Simon
