  2. Factorization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorization

    In mathematics, factorization (or factorisation, see English spelling differences) or factoring consists of writing a number or another mathematical object as a product of several factors, usually smaller or simpler objects of the same kind. For example, 3 × 5 is an integer factorization of 15, and (x – 2)(x + 2) is a polynomial ...

  3. Factorization of polynomials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorization_of_polynomials

    The first polynomial factorization algorithm was published by Theodor von Schubert in 1793. [1] Leopold Kronecker rediscovered Schubert's algorithm in 1882 and extended it to multivariate polynomials and coefficients in an algebraic extension. But most of the knowledge on this topic is not older than circa 1965 and the first computer algebra ...

    The result x 2 is then multiplied by the second term in the divisor −3 = −3x 2. Determine the partial remainder by subtracting −2x 2 − (−3x 2) = x 2. Mark −2x 2 as used and place the new remainder x 2 above it.

  5. Factorization of polynomials over finite fields - Wikipedia

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

    The polynomial P = x 4 + 1 is irreducible over Q but not over any finite field. On any field extension of F 2, P = (x + 1) 4. On every other finite field, at least one of −1, 2 and −2 is a square, because the product of two non-squares is a square and so we have; If =, then = (+) ().

    f(x) = a 0 + a 1 x + a 2 x 2 + ⋯ + a n x n, where a n ≠ 0 and n ≥ 2 is a continuous non-linear curve. A non-constant polynomial function tends to infinity when the variable increases indefinitely (in absolute value ).

  7. Lenstra elliptic-curve factorization - Wikipedia

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

    The slope of the tangent line at some point A=(x, y) is s = (3x 2 + 5)/(2y) (mod n). Using s we can compute 2A. If the value of s is of the form a/b where b > 1 and gcd(a,b) = 1, we have to find the modular inverse of b. If it does not exist, gcd(n,b) is a non-trivial factor of n. First we compute 2P.

  8. Monic polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monic_polynomial

    A product of monic polynomials is monic. A product of polynomials is monic if and only if the product of the leading coefficients of the factors equals 1. This implies that, the monic polynomials in a univariate polynomial ring over a commutative ring form a monoid under polynomial multiplication.

  9. Congruence of squares - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Congruence_of_squares

    The set of small primes which all the y factor into is called the factor base. Construct a logical matrix where each row describes one y, each column corresponds to one prime in the factor base, and the entry is the parity (even or odd) of the number of times that factor occurs in y. Our goal is to select a subset of rows whose sum is the all ...
