Polynomial selection in number field sieve for integer factorization
Gireesh Pandey, Saibal Kumar Pal · Perspectives in Science · 2016
The general number field sieve (GNFS) is the fastest algorithm for factoring large composite integers which is made up by two prime numbers. Polynomial selection is an important step of GNFS. The asymptotic runtime depends on choice of good polynomial pairs. In this paper, we present polynomial selection algorithm that will be modelled with size and root properties. The correlations between polynomial coefficient and number of relations have been explored with experimental findings.
