(old)Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

This is the paper "Five six and seven-term Karatsuba Like Formulae.pdf" by P L Montgomery

Has anybody read or is reading this paper? I would like to discuss some aspects of it. For starters, I need to know what has been done in Sec. 2.3 on page 3, specifically the line that says

(Xa0(X) + a1(X))*(Xb0(X) + b1(X))

What does this mean and how does it come?

If anybody has any idea about this method let's discuss about this. Your help will be greatly appreciated.

Is this in the Security section because it has something to do with encryption?

@efiguy: Thank you, I'll check it out

@Flash: Yes, it is one of the oldest techniques used to speed up the RSA Encryption method and can be used for any method whose security depends upon modular exponentiation
