35 /*----- Notes on the X448 key-agreement algorithm -------------------------*
37 * This is X448, as described in RFC7748, based on the elliptic curve defined
38 * in Mike Hamburg, `Ed448-Goldilocks, a new elliptic curve', EUROCRYPT 2016,
39 * https://eprint.iacr.org/2015/625/. (The curve here is 4-isogenous to
42 * The RFC-specified operation is simpler than the Diffie--Hellman function
43 * described in Hamburg's paper, since it doesn't involve the `Decaf'
44 * cofactor elimination procedure. Indeed, it looks very much like X25519
45 * with Hamburg's curve slotted in in place of Bernstein's.
47 * The @x448@ function essentially performs incompatible cofactor
48 * multiplication on the elliptic curve %$E(k)$% containing points %$(x, y)$%
49 * in %$\proj^2(k)$% satisfying the Montgomery-form equation
51 * %$y^3 = x^3 + 156326 x^2 + x$% ,
53 * where $k = \gf{p}$, with $p = \phi^2 - \phi - 1$%, where
54 * %$\phi = 2^{224}$%. The curve has %$n = (p + 1) + {}$%
55 * %$28312320572429821613362531907042076847709625476988141958474579766324$%
56 * points; this is four times a prime %$\ell$%. The points with
57 * %$x$%-coordinate 5 have order %$\ell$%.
