  2. Factorization of polynomials over finite fields - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorization_of...

    Like distinct-degree factorization algorithm, Rabin's algorithm [5] is based on the Lemma stated above. Distinct-degree factorization algorithm tests every d not greater than half the degree of the input polynomial. Rabin's algorithm takes advantage that the factors are not needed for considering fewer d. Otherwise, it is similar to distinct ...

  3. Miller–Rabin primality test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miller–Rabin_primality_test

    The Miller–Rabin primality test or Rabin–Miller primality test is a probabilistic primality test: an algorithm which determines whether a given number is likely to be prime, similar to the Fermat primality test and the Solovay–Strassen primality test. It is of historical significance in the search for a polynomial-time deterministic ...

  4. Rabin fingerprint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rabin_fingerprint

    Any hash function could be used to divide a long file into blocks (as long as a cryptographic hash function is then used to find the checksum of each block): but the Rabin fingerprint is an efficient rolling hash, since the computation of the Rabin fingerprint of region B can reuse some of the computation of the Rabin fingerprint of region A ...

  5. Irreducibility (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irreducibility_(mathematics)

    Irreducibility (mathematics) In mathematics, the concept of irreducibility is used in several ways. A polynomial over a field may be an irreducible polynomial if it cannot be factored over that field. In abstract algebra, irreducible can be an abbreviation for irreducible element of an integral domain; for example an irreducible polynomial.

  6. Computational irreducibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computational_irreducibility

    Marius Krumm and Markus P Muller tie computational irreducibility to Compatibilism. [1] They refine concepts via the intermediate requirement of a new concept called computational sourcehood that demands essentially full and almost-exact representation of features associated with problem or process represented, and a full no-shortcut computation.

  7. Casus irreducibilis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casus_irreducibilis

    But if the test shows that there is no rational root, then the polynomial may be irreducible, in which case casus irreducibilis applies, cos(θ ⁄ 5) and sin(θ ⁄ 5) are not constructible, the angle θ ⁄ 5 is not constructible, and the angle θ is not classically pentasectible. An example of this is when one attempts to construct a 25-gon ...

  8. Primality test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primality_test

    Primality test. A primality test is an algorithm for determining whether an input number is prime. Among other fields of mathematics, it is used for cryptography. Unlike integer factorization, primality tests do not generally give prime factors, only stating whether the input number is prime or not.

  9. Fermat's little theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fermat's_little_theorem

    The Miller–Rabin primality test uses the following extension of Fermat's little theorem: [14] If p is an odd prime and p − 1 = 2 s d with s > 0 and d odd > 0, then for every a coprime to p, either a d ≡ 1 (mod p) or there exists r such that 0 ≤ r < s and a 2 r d ≡ −1 (mod p).
