This paper proposes a new multiplicative inverse algorithm for the Galois field GF (2/sup m/) whose elements are represented by optimal normal basis type Ⅱ. One advantage of the normal basis is that the squaring of an element is computed by a cyclic shift of the binary representation. A normal basis element is always possible to rewrite canonical basis form. The proposed algorithm combines normal basis and canonical basis. The new algorithm is more suitable for implementation than conventional algorithm.

We present an efficient exponentiation algorithm for a finite field $GF(2^n)$ determined by an optimal normal basis of type II using signed digit representation of the exponents. Our signed digit representation uses a non-adjacent form (NAF) for $GF(2^n)$. It is generally believed that a signed digit representation is hard to use when a normal basis is given because the inversion of a normal element requires quite a computational delay. However our result shows that a special normal basis, called an optimal normal basis (ONB) of type II, has a nice property which admits an effective exponentiation using signed digit representations of the exponents.

The normal basis has the advantage that the result of squaring an element is simply the right cyclic shift of its coordinates in hardware implementation over finite fields. In particular, the optimal normal basis is the most efficient to hardware implementation over finite fields. In this paper, we propose an efficient parallel architecture which transforms the Gaussian normal basis multiplication in GF($2^m$) into the type-I optimal normal basis multiplication in GF($2^{mk}$), which is based on the palindromic representation of polynomials.

More concerns are concentrated in finite fields arithmetic as finite fields being applied for Elliptic curve cryptosystem coding theory and etc. Finite fields arithmetic is affected in represen -tation of those. Optimal normal basis is effective in hardware implementation and polynomial field which is effective in the basis conversion with optimal normal basis and show that the arithmetic of finite field with the basis is effective in software implementation.

This paper proposes a method for generating a basis translation matrix between isomorphic extension fields. To generate a basis translation matrix, we need the equality correspondence of a basis between the isomorphic extension fields. Consider an extension field $F_{p^m}$ where p is characteristic. As a brute force method, when $p^m$ is small, we can check the equality correspondence by using the minimal polynomial of a basis element; however, when $p^m$ is large, it becomes too difficult. The proposed methods are based on the fact that Type I and Type II optimal normal bases (ONBs) can be easily identified in each isomorphic extension field. The proposed methods efficiently use Type I and Type II ONBs and can generate a pair of basis translation matrices within 15 ms on Pentium 4 (3.6 GHz) when $mlog_2p$ = 160.

In this paper, we study affine transformations of normal bases and give an explicit formulation of the multiplication table of an affine transformation of a normal basis. We then discuss constructions of self-dual normal bases using affine transformations of traces of a type I optimal normal basis and of a Gauss period normal basis.

Finite field arithmetic is very important in the area of cryptographic applications and coding theory, and it is efficient to use normal bases in hardware implementation. Using the fact that $GF(2^{mk})$ having a type-I optimal normal basis becomes the extension field of $GF(2^m)$, we, in this paper, propose a new serial multiplier which reduce the critical XOR path delay of the best known Reyhani-Masoleh and Hasan's serial multiplier by 25% and the number of XOR gates of Kwon et al.'s multiplier by 2 based on the Reyhani-Masoleh and Hasan's serial multiplier for type-I optimal normal basis.

In this paper, we show how to construct an optimal normal basis over finite field of high degree and compare two methods for fast operations in some finite field $GF(2^n)$. The first method is to use an optimal normal basis of $GF(2^n)$ over $GF(2)$. In case of n = st where s and t are relatively primes, the second method which regards the finite field $GF(2^n)$ as an extension field of $GF(2^s)$ and $GF(2^t)$ is to use an optimal normal basis of $GF(2^t)$ over $GF(2)$. In section 4, we tabulate implementation result of two methods.

This paper proposes a multiplication algorithm for $F_{p^m}$, which can be efficiently applied to many pairs of characteristic p and extension degree m except for the case that 8p divides m(p-1). It uses a special class of type- Gauss period normal bases. This algorithm has several advantages: it is easily parallelized; Frobenius mapping is easily carried out since its basis is a normal basis; its calculation cost is clearly given; and it is sufficiently practical and useful when parameters k and m are small.
