A Matrix-based Framework for Primality Testing

THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED

Overviews some primality testing methods and suggests a way of looking at these unified perspective using matrix notation.


The problem of testing whether a given integer is a prime number has fascinated both mathematicians and laymen for centuries. We will give an overview of some primality testing methods which have been proposed in the past, including recent results involving deterministic polynomial-time tests.

We then suggest a way of looking at these different tests from a unified perspective, using an approach based on matrix notation. We give some ideas how to extend existing results.
