The Sparsity Challenges
James H. Davenport, Jacques Carette · 2009
While much is written about the importance of sparse polynomials in computer algebra, much less is known about the complexity of advanced (i.e. anything more than multiplication!) algorithms for them. This is due to a variety of factors, not least the problems posed by cyclotomic polynomials. In this paper we state a few of the challenges that sparse polynomials pose.
