An efficient sparse adaptation of the polytope method over Fp and a record-high binary bivariate factorisation
No full textAbstractA recent bivariate factorisation algorithm appeared in Abu-Salem et al. [Abu-Salem, F., Gao, S., Lauder, A., 2004. Factoring polynomials via polytopes. In: Proc. ISSAC’04. pp. 4–11] based on the use of Newton polytopes and a generalisation of Hensel lifting. Although possessing a worst-case exponential running time like the Hensel lifting algorithm, the polytope method should perform well for sparse polynomials whose Newton polytopes have very few Minkowski decompositions. A preliminary implementation in Abu-Salem et al. [Abu-Salem, F., Gao, S., Lauder, A., 2004. Factoring polynomials via polytopes. In: Proc. ISSAC’04. pp. 4–11] indeed reflects this property, but does not exploit the fact that the algorithm preserves the sparsity of the input polynomial, so that the total amount of work and space required are O(d4) and O(d2) respectively, for an input bivariate polynomial of total degree d. In this paper, we show that the polytope method can be made sensitive to the number of non-zero terms of the input polynomial, so that the input size becomes dependent on both the degree and the number of terms of the input bivariate polynomial. We describe a sparse adaptation of the polytope method over finite fields with prime order, which requires fewer bit operations and memory references given a degree d sparse polynomial whose number of terms t satisfies t<d3/4, and which is known to be the product of two sparse factors. For t<d, and using fast polynomial arithmetic over finite fields, our refinement reduces the amount of work per extension of a coprime dominating edge factorisation and the total spatial cost to O(tλd2+t2λdL(d)+t4λd) bit operations and O(tλd) bits of memory respectively, for some 1/2≤λ<1, and L(d)=logdloglogd. To the best of our knowledge, the sparse binary factorisations achieved using this adaptation are of the highest degree so far, reaching a world record degree of 20000 for a very sparse bivariate polynomial over F2

Hidaya Al Salem achievements.
No full textTitle:
Hidaya Al Salem: Her fight against corruption and the police force, and for full suffrage for women.
Hidaya was born in Kuwait 1935 and died in 2001. She was the first female journalist, and also the first middle school teacher in Kuwait City. Al Salem was a Kuwaiti social activist who campaigned against official corruption and also she was a Kuwaiti feminist who are demanding the right of Kuwaiti women to vote in political election. Al Salem was an active board member of the Kuwait journalists’ association, Kuwaiti women\u27s association, owner and editor in chief of Al-Majalis magazine. She was the author of notable women in the holy Quran. She explained how Islam treated women nicely in her book notable women in the holy Quran. In 2001, Al Salem was murdered in Kuwait City, when an armed attacker opened fire on her six times while she was driving her car to women and culture conference. According to press reports, “the reasons behind this assassination could be alleged financial disputes within Al Salem\u27s family and other alleged disputes with some of her employees”
