On Class Group Computations Using the Number Field Sieve
The best practical algorithm for class group computations in imaginary quadratic number fields (such as group structure, class number, discrete logarithm computations) is a varian...

CAIRN 2: An FPGA Implementation of the Sieving Step in the Number Field Sieve Method
The hardness of the integer factorization problem assures the security of some public-key cryptosystems including RSA, and the number field sieve method (NFS), the most efficient ...

Using number fields to compute logarithms in finite fields
We describe an adaptation of the number field sieve to the problem of computing logarithms in a finite field. We conjecture that the running time of the algorithm, when restricted ...

Fast quantum algorithms for computing the unit group and class group of a number field
Computing the unit group and class group of a number field are two of the main tasks in computational algebraic number theory. Factoring integers reduces to solving Pell's eq...

Algorithms for ray class groups and Hilbert class fields
This paper analyzes the complexity of problems from class field theory. Class field theory can be used to show the existence of infinite families of number fields with constant ro...
