  2. Horner's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horner's_method

    In mathematics and computer science, Horner's method (or Horner's scheme) is an algorithm for polynomial evaluation.Although named after William George Horner, this method is much older, as it has been attributed to Joseph-Louis Lagrange by Horner himself, and can be traced back many hundreds of years to Chinese and Persian mathematicians.

  3. General number field sieve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_number_field_sieve

    An optimal strategy for choosing these polynomials is not known; one simple method is to pick a degree d for a polynomial, consider the expansion of n in base m (allowing digits between −m and m) for a number of different m of order n 1/d, and pick f(x) as the polynomial with the smallest coefficients and g(x) as x − m. Consider the number ...

  4. Polynomial interpolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial_interpolation

    For example, given a = f(x) = a 0 x 0 + a 1 x 1 + ··· and b = g(x) = b 0 x 0 + b 1 x 1 + ···, the product ab is a specific value of W(x) = f(x)g(x). One may easily find points along W(x) at small values of x, and interpolation based on those points will yield the terms of W(x) and the specific product ab. As fomulated in Karatsuba ...

    Algorithm: SFF (Square-Free Factorization) Input: A monic polynomial f in F q [x] where q = p m Output: Square-free factorization of f R ← 1 # Make w be the product (without multiplicity) of all factors of f that have # multiplicity not divisible by p c ← gcd(f, f′) w ← f/c # Step 1: Identify all factors in w i ← 1 while w ≠ 1 do y ...

  8. Descartes' rule of signs - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Descartes'_rule_of_signs

    Any nth degree polynomial has exactly n roots in the complex plane, if counted according to multiplicity. So if f(x) is a polynomial with real coefficients which does not have a root at 0 (that is a polynomial with a nonzero constant term) then the minimum number of nonreal roots is equal to (+),

  9. Factorization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorization

    For example, 3 × 5 is an integer factorization of 15, and (x2)(x + 2) is a polynomial factorization of x 2 – 4. Factorization is not usually considered meaningful within number systems possessing division , such as the real or complex numbers , since any x {\displaystyle x} can be trivially written as ( x y ) × ( 1 / y ) {\displaystyle ...
