Abstract

This talk is a brief survey of recent results and ideas concerning the problem of finding a small root of a univariate polynomial mod N, and the companion problem of finding a small solution to a bivariate equation over ℤ. We start with the lattice-based approach from [2,3], and speculate on directions for improvement.
