  2. Dixon's factorization method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dixon's_factorization_method

    Dixon's method is based on finding a congruence of squares modulo the integer N which is intended to factor. Fermat's factorization method finds such a congruence by selecting random or pseudo-random x values and hoping that the integer x 2 mod N is a perfect square (in the integers):

  3. Factorization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorization

    The polynomial x 2 + cx + d, where a + b = c and ab = d, can be factorized into (x + a)(x + b).. 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.

  4. General number field sieve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_number_field_sieve

    Now the product of the factors a − mb mod n can be obtained as a square in two ways—one for each homomorphism. Thus, one can find two numbers x and y, with x 2 − y 2 divisible by n and again with probability at least one half we get a factor of n by finding the greatest common divisor of n and x − y.

  5. Newton (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton_(unit)

    A newton is defined as 1 kg⋅m/s 2 (it is a named derived unit defined in terms of the SI base units). [1]: 137 One newton is, therefore, the force needed to accelerate one kilogram of mass at the rate of one metre per second squared in the direction of the applied force.

  6. Factorization of polynomials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorization_of_polynomials

    Dividing f(x) by p(x) gives the other factor () = +, so that () = (). Now one can test recursively to find factors of p ( x ) and q ( x ), in this case using the rational root test. It turns out they are both irreducible, so the irreducible factorization of f ( x ) is: [ 5 ]

  8. Table of Gaussian integer factorizations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_of_Gaussian_Integer...

    The entry 4+2i = −i(1+i) 2 (2+i), for example, could also be written as 4+2i= (1+i) 2 (1−2i). The entries in the table resolve this ambiguity by the following convention: the factors are primes in the right complex half plane with absolute value of the real part larger than or equal to the absolute value of the imaginary part.

  9. Fermat's factorization method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fermat's_factorization_method

    Fermat's factorization method, named after Pierre de Fermat, is based on the representation of an odd integer as the difference of two squares: =. That difference is algebraically factorable as (+) (); if neither factor equals one, it is a proper factorization of N.
