Recover cyclotomic integer with bounded coefficients from its known associate
Recall that two cyclotomic integers are called associated if their ratio is a unit in the corresponding ring of cyclotomic integers.
We will view cyclotomic integers as polynomials (of degree $<\...

Non-trivial solutions for $-(c^2-d^2)(a^2-b^2)=2(ad-bc)(bd+ac)$?
Consider the quartic system in four variables $a,b,c,d\in\mathbb R$:
$$-(c^2-d^2)(a^2-b^2)=2(ad-bc)(bd+ac).$$
Does this system admit rational solution with $$abcd(c^2-d^2)(a^2-b^2)(a^2-c^2)(b^2-d^2)\...

On roots of irreducible quadratics modulo composites
Assume factorization of $N$ is unknown. What is the best complexity we know to find roots of the irreducible equation $$ax^2+bx+c\equiv0\bmod N?$$
Is this problem equivalent to any hardness results?

Does any cubic polynomial become reducible through composition with some quadratic?
What I mean to ask is this:
given an irreducible cubic polynomial $P(X)\in \mathbb{Z}[X]$ is there always a quadratic $Q(X)\in \mathbb{Z}[X]$ such that $P(Q)$ is reducible (as a polynomial, and then ...

Existence of Randomized polynomial time algorithm and some arithmetic analog of $ACC^0$ circuits for Factoring of primitive polynomials before LLL?
Before LLL came along in $1982$ there was no deterministic polynomial (in degree and number of bits in coefficients) way to factor square free primitive polynomials in $\Bbb Z[x]$.
However was there ...
