Informally, an algorithm is a set of explicit instructions used to solve a problem (e.g. Euclid's algorithm for computing the greatest common divisor of two integers). For more specific questions on algorithms, this tag may be used in conjunction with the approximation-algorithms, algorithmic-randomness and algorithmic-topology tags.

Complexity of $d$th root mod $n$

There are algorithms to solve this problem in an arbitrary such group in time $|G|^{1/2}$. … The running time is $q^{1/2}(\log (pq))^{O(1)}$ using generic algorithms. …

Algorithms for the explicit matrix isomorphism problem over $\mathbb{C}$

When specifying an algorithmic problem "over $\mathbb{C}$", you should say precisely what the input and output should be. The isomorphism problem is less studied over $\mathbb{C}$ because it is much …

On a probabilistic integer factorization algorithm given bounds for one prime factor

If $D\le 3$, it is known how to do this in polynomial time by Coppersmith's algorithm [Cop96]: note that $q \approx N^{\frac{D}{D+1}}$ and therefore $B_2-B_1 \approx q^{\frac{D-1}{D}} \approx N^{\frac …
