Hessian Form of An Elliptic Curve

Hessian Form Of An Elliptic Curve

In geometry, the Hessian curve is a plane curve similar to folium of Descartes. It is named after the German mathematician Otto Hesse. This curve was suggested for application in elliptic curve cryptography, because arithmetic in this curve representation is faster and needs less memory than arithmetic in standard Weierstrass form.

    “Gratitude is the most exquisite form of courtesy.”
    —Jacques Maritain (1882–1973)

    “The years-heired feature that can
    In curve and voice and eye
    Despise the human span
    Of durance—that is I;
    The eternal thing in man,
    That heeds no call to die.”
