  2. Integer factorization records - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer_factorization_records

    Integer factorization is the process of determining which prime numbers divide a given positive integer.Doing this quickly has applications in cryptography.The difficulty depends on both the size and form of the number and its prime factors; it is currently very difficult to factorize large semiprimes (and, indeed, most numbers that have no small factors).

  3. Integer factorization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer_factorization

    Given an integer n that will be factored, where n is an odd positive integer greater than a certain constant. In this factoring algorithm the discriminant Δ is chosen as a multiple of n, Δ = −dn, where d is some positive multiplier. The algorithm expects that for one d there exist enough smooth forms in G Δ.

  4. RSA problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RSA_problem

    The most efficient method known to solve the RSA problem is by first factoring the modulus N, a task believed to be impractical if N is sufficiently large (see integer factorization). The RSA key setup routine already turns the public exponent e , with this prime factorization, into the private exponent d , and so exactly the same algorithm ...

  5. RSA Factoring Challenge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RSA_Factoring_Challenge

    The computer's hard drive was subsequently destroyed so that no record would exist, anywhere, of the solution to the factoring challenge. [ 6 ] The first RSA numbers generated, RSA-100 to RSA-500 and RSA-617, were labeled according to their number of decimal digits; the other RSA numbers (beginning with RSA-576) were generated later and ...

  6. Pollard's rho algorithm - Wikipedia

    A major speed up results as 100 gcd steps are replaced with 99 multiplications modulo ⁠ ⁠ and a single gcd. Occasionally it may cause the algorithm to fail by introducing a repeated factor, for instance when ⁠ n {\displaystyle n} ⁠ is a square .

  7. General number field sieve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_number_field_sieve

    Since f is of degree d with integer coefficients, if a and b are integers, then so will be b d ·f(a/b), which we call r. Similarly, s = b e · g ( a / b ) is an integer. The goal is to find integer values of a and b that simultaneously make r and s smooth relative to the chosen basis of primes.

    The CPU time spent on finding these factors amounted to approximately 900 core-years on a 2.1 GHz Intel Xeon Gold 6130 CPU. Compared to the factorization of RSA-768, the authors estimate that better algorithms sped their calculations by a factor of 3–4 and faster computers sped their calculation by a factor of 1.25–1.67.

  9. 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.
