Abstract

In this paper, we describe a quantum algorithm for computing an isogeny between any two supersingular elliptic curves defined over a given finite field. The complexity of our method is in Õ(p1/4) where p is the characteristic of the base field. Our method is an asymptotic improvement over the previous fastest known method which had complexity Õ(p1/2) (on both classical and quantum computers). We also discuss the cryptographic relevance of our algorithm.
