In this work we tackle a different version of ECM which is actually much more studied and implemented, especially because it allows us to use ECM-friendly curves. In the case of curves with complex multiplication (CM) we replace the heuristics by rigorous results conditional to the Elliott-Halberstam (EH) conjecture. The proven results mirror recent theorems concerning the number of primes p such thar p -- 1 is smooth. To each CM elliptic curve we associate a value which measures how ECM-friendly it is. In the general case we explore consequences of a statement which translated EH in the case of elliptic curves.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2022-12-22T14:15:26.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "elliott-halberstam conjecture", "quadratic fields", "elliptic curve method", "cm elliptic curve", "proven results mirror" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
