Selmer-Inspired Elliptic Curve Generation

Elliptic curve cryptography ECC is foundational to modern secure communication, yet existing standard curves have faced scrutiny for opaque parameter-generation practices. This work introduces a Selmer-inspired framework for constructing elliptic curves that is both transparent and auditable...
