This work addresses a cryptographic security problem for researchers in number theory and cryptography, but appears incremental as it builds on existing methods like the Smart attack.
The authors tackled the discrete logarithm problem over prime fields in the safe prime case by connecting it to the logarithmic derivative, but no specific results or numbers are provided in the abstract.
In this brief note we connect the discrete logarithm problem over prime fields in the safe prime case to the logarithmic derivative.
