"Primal Screens" Paper presented at the annual meeting of the Mathematical Association of America, The Fairmont Hotel, San Jose, CA, Aug 03, 2007 <Not Available>. 2009-11-22 <http://www.allacademic.com/meta/p206809_index.html>Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: Prime numbers are as old as Euclid yet we are still discovering new things
about them. The world of computational number theory was stunned
a few years ago when Agrawal, Kayal, and Saxena announced their
``polynomial time" test for primality. We were stunned not only because
this long-sought algorithm turned to be so simple, but because
Kayal and Saxena had done their research as undergrads. |
