Formal Proof of the Group Law for Edwards Elliptic Curves

preprint2020arXivOpen access

Abstract

This article gives an elementary computational proof of the group law for Edwards elliptic curves. The associative law is expressed as a polynomial identity over the integers that is directly checked by polynomial division. Unlike other proofs, no preliminaries such as intersection numbers, Bezout's theorem, projective geometry, divisors, or Riemann Roch are required. The proof of the group law has been formalized in the Isabelle/HOL proof assistant.
