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).

    Kicking the heart
    with pain’s big boots running up and down
    the intestines like a motorcycle racer.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Regret for wasted time is more wasted time.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
