Huh? Algebraic geometers are mostly not interested in random data. With probability 1, your random data will define something irreducible. While if your data is reducible, you might need to build algebraic extensions of high degree to factor. I don't see how you can handle extensions of degrees that might pop out of the data of this format... > Bill. > > >> >> >> >> On Friday, October 28, 2016 at 7:55:02 AM UTC, Jori Mäntysalo wrote: >>> >>> On Thu, 27 Oct 2016, Dima Pasechnik wrote: >>> >>> > factorisation of multivariate polynomials is very slow.
