Abstract:
In this chapter we study the problem of the computation of discrete logarithm and we present the most known algorithms for its solution.
More precisely, we describe the algorithms of Shanks, ρ of Pollard and Pohlig-Hellman for an arbitrary cyclic group and the algorithm of Adleman for the multiplicative group of integers modulo n .
