In this paper, two approximation algorithms are given. Let N be an odd composite number. The algorithms give new directions regarding primality test of given N. The first algorithm is given using a new method called digital coding method.…
Given a large positive integer $N$, how quickly can one construct a prime number larger than $N$ (or between $N$ and 2N)? Using probabilistic methods, one can obtain a prime number in time at most $\log^{O(1)} N$ with high probability by…

Building on work of Boneh, Durfee and Howgrave-Graham, we present a deterministic algorithm that provably finds all integers $p$ such that $p^r \mathrel| N$ in time $O(N^{1/4r+\epsilon})$ for any $\epsilon > 0$. For example, the algorithm…
Given a multiset $S$ of $n$ positive integers and a target integer $t$, the subset sum problem is to decide if there is a subset of $S$ that sums up to $t$. We present a new divide-and-conquer algorithm that computes all the realizable…
Many large arithmetic computations rely on tables of all primes less than $n$. For example, the fastest algorithms for computing $n!$ takes time $O(M(n\log n) + P(n))$, where $M(n)$ is the time to multiply two $n$-bit numbers, and $P(n)$ is…
The subject of this paper is the time complexity of approximating Knapsack, Subset Sum, Partition, and some other related problems. The main result is an $\widetilde{O}(n+1/\varepsilon^{5/3})$ time randomized FPTAS for Partition, which is…
