  2. Factorization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorization

    Start with division by 2: the number is even, and n = 2 · 693. Continue with 693, and 2 as a first divisor candidate. 693 is odd (2 is not a divisor), but is a multiple of 3: one has 693 = 3 · 231 and n = 2 · 3 · 231. Continue with 231, and 3 as a first divisor candidate. 231 is also a multiple of 3: one has 231 = 3 · 77, and thus n = 2 ...

  3. Integer factorization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer_factorization

    Construct an ambiguous form (a, b, c) that is an element f ∈ G Δ of order dividing 2 to obtain a coprime factorization of the largest odd divisor of Δ in which Δ = −4ac or Δ = a(a − 4c) or Δ = (b − 2a)(b + 2a). If the ambiguous form provides a factorization of n then stop, otherwise find another ambiguous form until the ...

  4. Difference of two squares - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Difference_of_two_squares

    The difference of two squares can also be used in the rationalising of irrational denominators. [2] This is a method for removing surds from expressions (or at least moving them), applying to division by some combinations involving square roots.

  5. Factorization of polynomials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorization_of_polynomials

    Modern algorithms and computers can quickly factor univariate polynomials of degree more than 1000 having coefficients with thousands of digits. [3] For this purpose, even for factoring over the rational numbers and number fields , a fundamental step is a factorization of a polynomial over a finite field .

  6. Fermat's theorem on sums of two squares - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fermat's_theorem_on_sums_of...

    Fermat's theorem on sums of two squares is strongly related with the theory of Gaussian primes.. A Gaussian integer is a complex number + such that a and b are integers. The norm (+) = + of a Gaussian integer is an integer equal to the square of the absolute value of the Gaussian integer.

  7. Euler's factorization method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_factorization_method

    This restricted applicability has made Euler's factorization method disfavoured for computer factoring algorithms, since any user attempting to factor a random integer is unlikely to know whether Euler's method can actually be applied to the integer in question. It is only relatively recently that there have been attempts to develop Euler's ...

  8. Matrix decomposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_decomposition

    The system Q(Rx) = b is solved by Rx = Q T b = c, and the system Rx = c is solved by 'back substitution'. The number of additions and multiplications required is about twice that of using the LU solver, but no more digits are required in inexact arithmetic because the QR decomposition is numerically stable .

  9. Multiplication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplication

    Multiplication can also be thought of as scaling. Here, 2 is being multiplied by 3 using scaling, giving 6 as a result. Animation for the multiplication 2 × 3 = 6 4 × 5 = 20. The large rectangle is made up of 20 squares, each 1 unit by 1 unit. Area of a cloth 4.5m × 2.5m = 11.25m 2; 4 ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ × 2 ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ = 11 ⁠ 1 / 4 ⁠
