Questions in number theory related to $NC$ and $P$-completeness

Given $a,b\in\mathbb N$ find $\operatorname{GCD}(a,b)$. Given $a,b,c\in\mathbb N$ find $x,y\in\mathbb Z$ such that $ax+by=c$. Euclidean algorithm solves both. My question is if either 1 or 2 is in ...

Modular inverse computation - avoiding Euclidean algorithm

Modular inverse is known to be computable by Extended Euclidean algorithm which is the reaping the rewards of computing the GCD of two numbers or proving two numbers are coprime. If we already know ...

Will an integer program to deterministically factor integers help derandomize $\mathbb F_q[x]$ factoring?

There are many analogies between the objects $\mathbb F_q[x]$ and $\mathbb Z$. Supposing there is a fixed (say $10^9$) dimension linear integer program (describable without any objective function) in ...
