!!! Overview
[{$pagename}] is a mathematical function that performs scalar multiplication on the Montgomery form of the [Curve25519] and is defined in [RFC 7748]Daniel J. Bernstein proposed:
* [{$pagename}] be the name of the [Diffie-Hellman] [Key-Exchange] [protocol]
* [Curve25519] be the name of the [Elliptic Curve]
25519 indicates that the characteristic of the bottom prime number field on which the [Elliptic Curve] depends is 2²⁵⁵-19.
Based on [Curve25519], Bernstein constructed the [Diffie-Hellman] [Key-Exchange] [protocol] [{$pagename}].
Compared with the [ECDH] [Key-Exchange] [protocol], the most notable feature of the [{$pagename}] protocol is that it only depends on the x coordinate of the point on the [Elliptic Curve]. The idea of constructing an ECDH key exchange protocol using only x coordinates originally came from the paper published by Victor Millier in [1985|year 1985], "Use of Elliptic Curves in Cryptography".!!
