Pseudoirreducible Polynomials: Probabilistic Irreducibility Testing

  • Published:
Cybernetics and Systems Analysis Aims and scope

Abstract

Polynomial analogs of pseudoprime numbers are created (Fermat pseudoprimes, Euler pseudoprimes, and strong pseudoprimes). Some of their properties and interrelations are described. Efficient probabilistic algorithms of irreducibility testing are given that are analogs of the Fermat, Solovay-Strassen, and Miller-Rabin algorithms.
