    On the complexity of computing with zero-dimensional triangular sets

    We study the complexity of some fundamental operations for triangular sets in dimension zero. Using Las-Vegas algorithms, we prove that one can perform such operations as change of order, equiprojectable decomposition, or quasi-inverse computation with a cost that is essentially that of modular composition. Over an abstract field, this leads to a subquadratic cost (with respect to the degree of the underlying algebraic set). Over a finite field, in a boolean RAM model, we obtain a quasi-linear running time using Kedlaya and Umans' algorithm for modular composition. Conversely, we also show how to reduce the problem of modular composition to change of order for triangular sets, so that all these problems are essentially equivalent. Our algorithms are implemented in Maple; we present some experimental results

    Fast Arithmetics in Artin-Schreier Towers over Finite Fields

    Get PDF
    An Artin-Schreier tower over the finite field F_p is a tower of field extensions generated by polynomials of the form X^p - X - a. Following Cantor and Couveignes, we give algorithms with quasi-linear time complexity for arithmetic operations in such towers. As an application, we present an implementation of Couveignes' algorithm for computing isogenies between elliptic curves using the p-torsion.Comment: 28 pages, 4 figures, 3 tables, uses mathdots.sty, yjsco.sty Submitted to J.

    Fast Conversion Algorithms for Orthogonal Polynomials

    Get PDF
    We discuss efficient conversion algorithms for orthogonal polynomials. We describe a known conversion algorithm from an arbitrary orthogonal basis to the monomial basis, and deduce a new algorithm of the same complexity for the converse operation
