noun
- Plural of isogeny; in mathematics, particularly in algebraic geometry and number theory, morphisms between elliptic curves or abelian varieties that preserve certain algebraic structures.
Usage: technical; mathematics; plural form
Examples
- The study of isogenies between elliptic curves is fundamental to modern cryptography.
- Researchers investigated the properties of isogenies defined over finite fields.
- Isogenies provide a way to relate different elliptic curves with similar arithmetic properties.
- The kernel of an isogeny determines much of its structure and behavior.
- Post-quantum cryptography relies heavily on the computational difficulty of finding isogenies.
