Sieving Question
What advanced knowledge do we have about the factors of the following numbers?
P = (k*2^m)^(2^n)+1
where k is an odd 32-bit number, and m ~ n.
The idea is to use Proth's theorem for a...

The argument is that one will efficiently load stride-X-separated cachelines from L2 to L1 if you use cachelines as your data type. If loading a cacheline takes 4 cycles, then if your code partially...

It also makes sense for FFTs: a split-radix butterfly has 16 additions and 8 multiplies, which (IIRC) can be done in 48 instructions including branching code. Then you loop over one FFT of length N/2...

Faster special case algorithm?
If we use Proth's theorem to search for primes of the form (k*2^n)^(2^m)+1 with k<2^n, and if (k*2^n)^2+m<2^m, we could do the required negacyclic convolution with Schoenhage-Strassen in base k*2^n....

pari-gp and trigonometry in Galois fields
Is there a straightforward way to compute roots modulo p^2 with pari-gp?
Specifically, if p=2^107-1, then 4th roots of unity are free, 8th roots are computationally cheap (i.e. +/-2^53 +/- i*2^53,...
