Lib.rs

This library implements the BW6_761 curve generated in [EG20]. The name denotes that it is a curve generated using the Brezing--Weng method, and that its embedding degree is 6. The main feature of this curve is that the scalar field equals the base field of the BLS12_377 curve.

Curve information:
