We prove that quantum computation is polynomially equivalent to classical probabilistic computation with an oracle for estimating the value of simple sums, quadratically signed weight enumerators. The problem of estimating these sums can be…
A polynomial $f(t)$ in an Ore extension $K[t;S,D]$ over a division ring $K$ is a Wedderburn polynomial if $f(t)$ is monic and is the minimal polynomial of an algebraic subset of $K$. These polynomials have been studied in "Wedderburn…
This manuscript describes a technique for computing partial rank-revealing factorizations, such as, e.g, a partial QR factorization or a partial singular value decomposition. The method takes as input a tolerance $\varepsilon$ and an…
We formulate and prove a criterion for reducibility of a quadratic polynomial over the integers. The main theorem was suggested by the teaching experience with the concrete material called "the polynomial box". Through the corollaries we…
We present an efficient solution to the following problem, of relevance in a numerical optimization scheme: calculation of integrals of the type \[\iint_{T \cap \{f\ge0\}} \phi_1\phi_2 \, dx\,dy\] for quadratic polynomials $f,\phi_1,\phi_2$…
Let T^{N,chi}_{p,k}(x) be the characteristic polynomial of the Hecke operator T_p acting on the space of cusp forms S_k(N,chi). We describe the factorization of T^{N,chi}_{p,k}(x) mod l as k varies, and we explicitly calculate those…
We develop a theory of arithmetic Newton polygons of higher order, that provides the factorization of a separable polynomial over a $p$-adic field, together with relevant arithmetic information about the fields generated by the irreducible…
We describe a novel analogue algorithm that allows the simultaneous factorization of an exponential number of large integers with a polynomial number of experimental runs. It is the interference-induced periodicity of "factoring"…
We describe an algorithm for the factorization of non-commutative polynomials over a field. The first sketch of this algorithm appeared in an unpublished manuscript (literally hand written notes) by James H. Davenport more than 20 years…
A deterministic algorithm for factoring $n$ using $n^{1/3+o(1)}$ bit operations is presented. The algorithm tests the divisibility of $n$ by all the integers in a short interval at once, rather than integer by integer as in trial division.…
The factorization of a large digit integer in polynomial time is a challenging computational task to decipher. The exponential growth of computation can be alleviated if the factorization problem is changed to an optimization problem with…
We consider quantum interpolation of polynomials. We imagine a quantum computer with black-box access to input/output pairs (x_i, f(x_i)), where f is a degree-d polynomial, and we wish to compute f(0). We give asymptotically tight quantum…
Simplification of fractional powers of positive rational numbers and of sums, products and powers of such numbers is taught in beginning algebra. Such numbers can often be expressed in many ways, as this article discusses in some detail.…
An algorithm for matrix factorization of polynomials was proposed in \cite{fomatati2022tensor} and it was shown that this algorithm produces better results than the standard method for factoring polynomials on the class of summand-reducible…
The availability of working quantum computers has led to several proposals and claims of quantum advantage. In 2023, this has included claims that quantum computers can successfully factor large integers, by optimizing the search for nearby…
We present an oracle factorisation algorithm which finds a nontrivial factor of almost all positive integers $n$ based on the knowledge of the number of points on certain elliptic curves in residue rings modulo $n$.
Shor's factoring algorithm (SFA), by its ability to efficiently factor large numbers, has the potential to undermine contemporary encryption. At its heart is a process called order finding, which quantum mechanics lets us perform…
Let $\mathbb{F}$ be a division ring. In this paper, we extent some of the main well-known results about the resultant of two univariate polynomials to the more general context of an Ore extension $\mathbb{F}[x;\sigma,\delta]$. Finally, some…
Cardinal's factorization algorithm of 1996 splits a univariate polynomial into two factors with root sets separated by the imaginary axis, which is an important goal itself and a basic step toward root-finding. The novelty of the algorithm…
Let $\mathbb F_q$ be a finite field and $n$ a positive integer. In this article, we prove that, under some conditions on $q$ and $n$, the polynomial $x^n-1$ can be split into irreducible binomials $x^t-a$ and an explicit factorization into…
