Fibers of generic smooth maps between manifolds of equal dimension

Yes, the claim is true, and here's a reference. For $M$ compact, your condition is satisfied by a "finite mapping." Such finite mappings form a residual set when $\dim M \leq \dim N$. See pp....

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{...
