Integer Factorization Algorithms - Heuristic Running Time

Heuristic Running Time

In number theory, there are many integer factoring algorithms that heuristically have expected running time

in o and L-notation. Some examples of those algorithms are the elliptic curve method and the quadratic sieve. Another such algorithm is the class group relations method proposed by Schnorr, Seysen, and Lenstra that is proved under of the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis (GRH).

Famous quotes containing the words running and/or time:

    It was far in the sameness of the wood;
    I was running with joy on the Demon’s trail,
    Though I knew what I hunted was no true god.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Absence, hear my protestation
    Against thy strength
    Distance and length,
    Do what thou canst for alteration:
    For hearts of truest metal
    Absence doth join, and Time doth settle.
    John Hoskyns (1566–1638)
