Modular Las Vegas Algorithms for Polynomial Absolute Factorization
Let f(X,Y) \in \ZZ[X,Y] be an irreducible polynomial over \QQ. We give a
Las Vegas absolute irreducibility test based on a property of the Newton
polytope of , or more precisely, of modulo some prime integer . The
same idea of choosing a satisfying some prescribed properties together with
is used to provide a new strategy for absolute factorization of .
We present our approach in the bivariate case but the techniques extend to the
multivariate case. Maple computations show that it is efficient and promising
as we are able to factorize some polynomials of degree up to 400
Parallel sparse interpolation using small primes
To interpolate a supersparse polynomial with integer coefficients, two
alternative approaches are the Prony-based "big prime" technique, which acts
over a single large finite field, or the more recently-proposed "small primes"
technique, which reduces the unknown sparse polynomial to many low-degree dense
polynomials. While the latter technique has not yet reached the same
theoretical efficiency as Prony-based methods, it has an obvious potential for
parallelization. We present a heuristic "small primes" interpolation algorithm
and report on a low-level C implementation using FLINT and MPI.Comment: Accepted to PASCO 201
Resolving zero-divisors using Hensel lifting
Algorithms which compute modulo triangular sets must respect the presence of
zero-divisors. We present Hensel lifting as a tool for dealing with them. We
give an application: a modular algorithm for computing GCDs of univariate
polynomials with coefficients modulo a radical triangular set over the
rationals. Our modular algorithm naturally generalizes previous work from
algebraic number theory. We have implemented our algorithm using Maple's RECDEN
package. We compare our implementation with the procedure RegularGcd in the
RegularChains package.Comment: Shorter version to appear in Proceedings of SYNASC 201
A lifting and recombination algorithm for rational factorization of sparse polynomials
We propose a new lifting and recombination scheme for rational bivariate
polynomial factorization that takes advantage of the Newton polytope geometry.
We obtain a deterministic algorithm that can be seen as a sparse version of an
algorithm of Lecerf, with now a polynomial complexity in the volume of the
Newton polytope. We adopt a geometrical point of view, the main tool being
derived from some algebraic osculation criterions in toric varieties.Comment: 22 page
Elimination for generic sparse polynomial systems
We present a new probabilistic symbolic algorithm that, given a variety
defined in an n-dimensional affine space by a generic sparse system with fixed
supports, computes the Zariski closure of its projection to an l-dimensional
coordinate affine space with l < n. The complexity of the algorithm depends
polynomially on combinatorial invariants associated to the supports.Comment: 22 page
