On Exact Division and Divisibility Testing for Sparse Polynomials

Year: 2021
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: No polynomial-time algorithm is known to test whether a sparse polynomial G divides another sparse polynomial F. While computing the quotient Q = F quo G can be done in polynomial time with respect to the sparsities of F, G and Q, this is not yet sufficient to get a polynomial-time divisibility test in general. Indeed, the sparsity of the quotient Q can be exponentially larger than the ones of F and G. In the favorable case where the sparsity #Q of the quotient is polynomial, the best known algorithm to compute Q has a non-linear factor #G#Q in the complexity, which is not optimal.
