Abstract(in English) XTR represents elements in a cyclic subgroup of a multiplicative group of a finite field F_ as those in F_ using the trace over F_, where h satisfies h^=1. If we apply XTR to an ElGamal cryptosystem, then the calculation amount for encryption/decryption are reduced and the size of public key and the message length become a third of them. XTR has both efficiency and compactness. This paper shows that XTR becomes more compact representation when we use fields of characteristic 3. Let q be 3^<2k-1>, then √<3q> is an integer and there exists h∈F_ such that h^+1>=1. Then we can represent elements in as those in F_q using the trace over F_q. Although this method requires only additional 25% computational effort, it achieves as twice compactness as original XTR. This paper will also discuss that the selection of practical fields of characteristic 3.
