+D. J. Bernstein.
+Differential addition chains.
+Document ID: 9620b81ea01f66b2a782be234dade959.
+URL: http://cr.yp.to/papers.html#diffchain.
+Date: 2006.02.19.
+<p>
+This paper discusses various old and new constructions
+of differential addition chains in one and two dimensions.
+The current Curve25519 software
+uses the obvious binary one-dimensional differential addition chain;
+perhaps one could save time
+using other one-dimensional differential addition chains;
+non-Diffie-Hellman applications such as ECDSA
+can use two-dimensional differential addition chains.
