  2. General number field sieve - Wikipedia

    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 .

  3. Factorization system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorization_system

    A factorization system (E, M) for a category C consists of two classes of morphisms E and M of C such that: E and M both contain all isomorphisms of C and are closed under composition. Every morphism f of C can be factored as f = m ∘ e {\displaystyle f=m\circ e} for some morphisms e ∈ E {\displaystyle e\in E} and m ∈ M {\displaystyle m\in ...

  4. 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.

  5. Factorization algebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorization_algebra

    In mathematics and mathematical physics, a factorization algebra is an algebraic structure first introduced by Beilinson and Drinfel'd in an algebro-geometric setting as a reformulation of chiral algebras, [1] and also studied in a more general setting by Costello and Gwilliam to study quantum field theory.

  6. Factorization of polynomials over finite fields - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorization_of...

    In mathematics and computer algebra the factorization of a polynomial consists of decomposing it into a product of irreducible factors.This decomposition is theoretically possible and is unique for polynomials with coefficients in any field, but rather strong restrictions on the field of the coefficients are needed to allow the computation of the factorization by means of an algorithm.

  7. Factorization of polynomials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorization_of_polynomials

    This factorization is also unique up to the choice of a sign. For example, + + + = + + + is a factorization into content and primitive part. Gauss proved that the product of two primitive polynomials is also primitive (Gauss's lemma). This implies that a primitive polynomial is irreducible over the rationals if and only if it is irreducible ...

  8. Euler's factorization method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_factorization_method

    Euler's factorization method is a technique for factoring a number by writing it as a sum of two squares in two different ways. For example the number 1000009 {\displaystyle 1000009} can be written as 1000 2 + 3 2 {\displaystyle 1000^{2}+3^{2}} or as 972 2 + 235 2 {\displaystyle 972^{2}+235^{2}} and Euler's method gives the factorization ...

  9. 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):
