Why Discrete Logarithms Matter and Their Hidden Complexity
Discrete logarithms lie at the intersection of number theory and modern cryptography, forming the backbone of secure digital communication. Unlike real logarithms, which operate over continuous real numbers, discrete logarithms function in finite modular arithmetic—specifically, within the multiplicative group of integers modulo a prime \( p \). For a generator \( g \) of this …
