Talk Abstract
Factorization of Polynomials Over Fields of Characteristics 2

Shmuel Winograd, University of Chicago

Decoding Reed-Solomon codes calls for finding the roots of polynomials over a field of characteristics 2. This talk will describe a new method for factorizing such polynomials which is primarily efficient for polynomials of small degree.
