I think the solution may be something like the RSA analogs in elliptic
curves.

Sounds like a bad idea -- at a minimum, your encryption will be
deterministic.
What are you actually trying to achieve? Usually once you understand that,
you can find a protocol solving your problem already in the crypto
literature.

Hi,
Elliptic Curve Pohlig-Hellman is comutative. It's quite simple. I've
implemented it.

As far as I understand, Elliptic Curve Pohlig-Hellman is not public-key.
It's a private key cipher.

That paper was from 1980. A few things have changed since then. =)
In any case, my point still stands: what you actually want is some e-cash
system with some special properties. Commutative encryption is neither
necessary nor

I think you should look for multisignature schemes. There are lots of it.
And BTW - right EC Pohlih-Hellman is not public key cryptosystem. I
missed your requirement.
