Hi, anyone around?

@RyanAmos Yes. Anything specific, you like to discuss?

@ThomasKlimpel just a simple notation question: I came across the notation e(a,b) in this paper (people.csail.mit.edu/vinodv/WVRF-proc.pdf end of section 4), and I'm not sure what it means. I thought it might be exponentiation, but superscripts are used for exponentiation elsewhere. Any hints?

@RyanAmos No, that is not exponentiation. That is the bilinear map e: G x G -> G' defined in the same paragraph.

Oh, wow, I can't believe I missed that. Thank you

Anything else you like to discuss?

I think that's it. I need to go learn a bit more about bilinear maps now
