Smooth Subsum Search: A heuristic for practical integer factorization

Markus Hittmeir

The two currently fastest general-purpose integer factorization algorithms are the Quadratic Sieve and the Number Field Sieve. Both techniques are used to find so-called smooth val…

Integer factorization as subset-sum problem

Markus Hittmeir

This paper elaborates on a sieving technique that has first been applied in 2018 for improving bounds on deterministic integer factorization. We will generalize the sieve in order…

A deterministic algorithm for finding -power divisors

David Harvey, Markus Hittmeir

Building on work of Boneh, Durfee and Howgrave-Graham, we present a deterministic algorithm that provably finds all integers such that in time …

A log-log speedup for exponent one-fifth deterministic integer factorisation

David Harvey, Markus Hittmeir

Building on techniques recently introduced by the second author, and further developed by the first author, we show that a positive integer may be rigorously and deterministica…

A time-space tradeoff for Lehman's deterministic integer factorization method

Markus Hittmeir

Fermat's well-known factorization algorithm is based on finding a representation of natural numbers as the difference of squares. In 1895, Lawrence generalized this idea and ap…

A reduction of integer factorization to modular tetration

Markus Hittmeir

Let . For the -th iterate of the exponential function , also known as tetration, we write \[ ^k a:=a^{a^{.^{.^{.^{a}}}}}. \] In this paper, we…
