title = "On hashing into elliptic curves",
abstract = "We study the hash function from a finite field F q into an elliptic curve over F q which has recently been introduced by T. Icart. In particular we slightly adjust and prove the asymptotic formula conjectured by T. Icart for the image size of this function.",
