Abstract

It is very important to solve the quadratic congruence equation over a finite field GF(p) in cryptography. In this paper we discussed the graphic structure of the quadratic roots module, a prime number p . A deterministic polynomial algorithm is presented to detect the quadratic roots if a quadratic non-residue is provided no matter what kind of the prime number p is. Some examples are given in the end of the paper.
