Mar 30, 2023 at 6:22 comment added gagiuntoli Thanks for that; it is crystal clear and makes full sense!
Mar 30, 2023 at 6:15 comment added knaccc In additive notation, exponentiation becomes multiplication, and multiplication becomes addition. So it would be $s*G+c*Y_1$. The two operations are scalar multiplication (a point added to itself many times), and point addition.

Mar 30, 2023 at 6:04 comment added gagiuntoli Thank you, I miss that in the verification process; there is this: g^s * y1^c. This would be like a product of points; as far as I know, point multiplication is not defined. What is the equivalent operation there?
Mar 29, 2023 at 23:39 comment added Myria You'd need to choose the generator point $g$ carefully so that it has order $q$. Unlike what you'd do in this protocol for the multiplicative group, with elliptic curves you might as well have $q$ as close as possible to the number of points--you wouldn't choose $q$ to be quite a bit smaller than $p$. Also, you might to take care with invalid curve point attacks and subgroup confinement attacks.
