Abstract
A method for evaluating a function of a finite field of characteristic p into itself, for an element x of the field, uses an evaluation, for the element x, of a polynomial formed by a plurality of monomials. The evaluation of the polynomial includes the following steps: determining monomials the degree of which is an integer power of the characteristic p by successive raisings of the element x to the power p; and determining monomials the degree of which is different from an integer power of the characteristic p on the basis of the determined monomials, the degree of which is an integer power of the characteristic p, and by at least one multiplication. An evaluating device is also provided.
