  2. Greatest common divisor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greatest_common_divisor

    The elements 2 and 1 + √ −3 are two maximal common divisors (that is, any common divisor which is a multiple of 2 is associated to 2, the same holds for 1 + √ −3, but they are not associated, so there is no greatest common divisor of a and b.

  3. Euclidean algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_algorithm

    Euclid's method for finding the greatest common divisor (GCD) of two starting lengths BA and DC, both defined to be multiples of a common "unit" length. The length DC being shorter, it is used to "measure" BA, but only once because the remainder EA is less than DC. EA now measures (twice) the shorter length DC, with remainder FC shorter than EA.

  4. Polynomial greatest common divisor - Wikipedia

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

    There are several ways to find the greatest common divisor of two polynomials. Two of them are: Factorization of polynomials, in which one finds the factors of each expression, then selects the set of common factors held by all from within each set of factors. This method may be useful only in simple cases, as factoring is usually more ...

  5. Binary GCD algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_GCD_algorithm

    Visualisation of using the binary GCD algorithm to find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of 36 and 24. Thus, the GCD is 2 2 × 3 = 12.. The binary GCD algorithm, also known as Stein's algorithm or the binary Euclidean algorithm, [1] [2] is an algorithm that computes the greatest common divisor (GCD) of two nonnegative integers.

  6. Lehmer's GCD algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lehmer's_GCD_algorithm

    Say we want to obtain the GCD of the two integers a and b. Let a ≥ b. If b contains only one digit (in the chosen base, say β = 1000 or β = 2 32), use some other method, such as the Euclidean algorithm, to obtain the result. If a and b differ in the length of digits, perform a division so that a and b are equal in length, with length equal ...

    The Taliban’s demand for access to global climate finance amid Afghanistan’s worsening droughts, floods, and food insecurity has sparked a global dilemma: will the hardline regime’s ...

  8. Least common multiple - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Least_common_multiple

    Here, the composite number 90 is made up of one atom of the prime number 2, two atoms of the prime number 3, and one atom of the prime number 5. This fact can be used to find the lcm of a set of numbers. Example: lcm(8,9,21) Factor each number and express it as a product of prime number powers.

  9. Factorization of polynomials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorization_of_polynomials

    A simplified version of the LLL factorization algorithm is as follows: calculate a complex (or p-adic) root α of the polynomial () to high precision, then use the Lenstra–Lenstra–Lovász lattice basis reduction algorithm to find an approximate linear relation between 1, α, α 2, α 3, . . . with integer coefficients, which might be an ...
