  2. Lenstra elliptic-curve factorization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lenstra_elliptic-curve...

    If it does not exist, gcd(n,b) is a non-trivial factor of n. First we compute 2P. We have s(P) = s(1,1) = 4, so the coordinates of 2P = (x ′, y ′) are x ′ = s 2 – 2x = 14 and y ′ = s(xx ′) – y = 4(1 – 14) – 1 = –53, all numbers understood (mod n). Just to check that this 2P is indeed on the curve: (–53) 2 = 2809 = 14 ...

    Now 97 is a non-trivial factor of 8051. Starting values other than x = y = 2 may give the cofactor (83) instead of 97. One extra iteration is shown above to make it clear that y moves twice as fast as x. Note that even after a repetition, the GCD can return to 1.

  4. Quartic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartic_equation

    In either case the full quartic can then be divided by the factor (x − 1) or (x + 1) respectively yielding a new cubic polynomial, which can be solved to find the quartic's other roots. If a 1 = a 0 k , {\displaystyle \ a_{1}=a_{0}k\ ,} a 2 = 0 {\displaystyle \ a_{2}=0\ } and a 4 = a 3 k , {\displaystyle \ a_{4}=a_{3}k\ ,} then x = − k ...

  5. Integer factorization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer_factorization

    Prime decomposition of n = 864 as 2 5 × 3 3. By the fundamental theorem of arithmetic, every positive integer has a unique prime factorization. (By convention, 1 is the empty product.) Testing whether the integer is prime can be done in polynomial time, for example, by the AKS primality test. If composite, however, the polynomial time tests ...

    Symbolic integration of the algebraic function f(x) = ⁠ x / √ x 4 + 10x 2 − 96x − 71 ⁠ using the computer algebra system Axiom. In mathematics and computer science, [1] computer algebra, also called symbolic computation or algebraic computation, is a scientific area that refers to the study and development of algorithms and software for manipulating mathematical expressions and other ...

  7. Polynomial greatest common divisor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial_greatest_common...

    x 2 − 5x − 6 = (12 x + 12) (⁠ 1 / 12 ⁠ x − ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠) + 0 Since 12 x + 12 is the last nonzero remainder, it is a GCD of the original polynomials, and the monic GCD is x + 1 . In this example, it is not difficult to avoid introducing denominators by factoring out 12 before the second step.

  8. Fermat's factorization method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fermat's_factorization_method

    Squares are always congruent to 0, 1, 4, 5, 9, 16 modulo 20. The values repeat with each increase of a by 10. In this example, N is 17 mod 20, so subtracting 17 mod 20 (or adding 3), produces 3, 4, 7, 8, 12, and 19 modulo 20 for these values. It is apparent that only the 4 from this list can be a square.

  9. Code refactoring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_refactoring

    Refactoring is usually motivated by noticing a code smell. [2] For example, the method at hand may be very long, or it may be a near duplicate of another nearby method. Once recognized, such problems can be addressed by refactoring the source code, or transforming it into a new form that behaves the same as before but that no longer "smells".
