Abstract

We give explicit formulas for the number of distinct elliptic curves over a finite field (up to isomorphism over the algebraic closure of the ground field) in several families of curves of cryptographic interest such as Edwards curves and their generalization due to D. J. Bernstein and T. Lange as well as the curves introduced by C. Doche, T. Icart and D. R. Kohel.
