Addition of elements in fp12 #59

Closed zevenblade closed 1 year ago

zevenblade commented 1 year ago

Hello,

I am using amcl with the https://github.com/fentec-project/CiFEr where they instantiate BN254. The BN254 internally uses fp12 to represent points. For some implementation we need addition in fp12 which is unfortunately not implemented in the library. Is there a reason why this is not in general possible.

Aside Do you know of any pairing friendly curve where addition of curve elements is possible ?

We solved the issue we didn't need addition after all.
