Heuristics of the Cocks-Pinch method

preprint2014arXivOpen access

Abstract

We heuristically analyze the Cocks-Pinch method by using the Bateman-Horn conjecture. Especially, we present the first known heuristic which suggests that any efficient construction of pairing-friendly elliptic curves can efficiently generate such curves over pairing-friendly fields, naturally including the Cocks-Pinch method. Finally, some numerical evidence is given.
