Polynomial multiplication is known to have quasi-linear complexity in both the dense and the sparse cases. Yet no truly linear algorithm has been given in any case for the problem, and it is not clear whether it is even possible. This…

Assuming that P is not equal to NP, the worst-case run time of any algorithm solving an NP-complete problem must be super-polynomial. But what is the fastest run time we can get? Before one can even hope to approach this question, a more…
