Abstract

Elliptic curves with pairings are useful tools for constructing cryptographic primitives. In this memo, we specify domain parameters of Barreto-Naehrig curves (BN-curves) [8]. The BN-curve is an elliptic curve suitable for pairings and allows us to achieve high security and efficiency of cryptographic schemes. This memo specifies domain parameters of four 254-bit BN-curves [1] [2] [5] which allow us to obtain efficient implementations.
