Abstract

This paper deals with variations of the quadratic sieve integer factoring algorithm. We describe what we believe is the first implementation of the hypercube multiple polynomial quadratic sieve with two large primes. We have used this program to factor many integers with up to 116 digits. Our program appears to be many times faster than the (non-hypercube) multiple polynomial quadratic sieve with two large primes.
