Abstract

We show that computation of a sequence of Richelot isogenies from specified supersingular Jacobians of genus-2 curves over $\mathbb F_{p}$ can be executed in $\mathbb F_{p^2}$ or $\mathbb F_{p^4}$. Based on this, we describe a practical algorithm for computing a Richelot isogeny sequence.

Keywords: hyperelliptic curve, genus two, Richelot isogeny, isogeny graph, supersingular curve
