I recorded yesterday a new paper that should be of interest to members of the gmp development community who work on cryptography:
Fast Generation of RSA Keys Using Smooth Integers IEEE Transactions on Computers 71(7) 1575--1585 July 2022 https://doi.org/10.1109/TC.2021.3095669 The paper has a good survey of previous work in this area, with 36 references. Although there is a fair amount of number theory in the paper, the authors emphasize on page 1580, column 2: >> ... >> Our understanding is that for a practical application of our >> algorithm, the users of this technique do not have to become experts >> on analytic number theory. The main point of the article is to provide >> the algorithm in as understandable as possible format and, for more >> mathematically oriented readers, we provide more than enough >> references to get deeper into this fascinating issue. >> ... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Nelson H.
