Abstract

In this paper we consider the system of bilinear forms which are defined by a product of two polynomials modulo a thirdP. We show that the number of multiplications depend on how the field of constants used in the algorithm splitsP. If\(P = \prod\nolimits_{i = 1}^k {P_i^{li} } \) then 2 ·deg(P) − k multiplications are needed. (We assume thatP i is irreducible.)
