Absolute factoring of bidegree bivariate polynomials
Abstract
We describe an efficient algorithm and an implementation for computing an absolute factorization of a bivariate polynomial with a given bidegree. Results of experimentation and an illustrative example are provided. This algorithm is a generalization of the previous one by Rupprecht-Galligo-Chèze which works after a generic change of coordinates. It relies on a general algorithmic approach based on a study of the curve defined by the polynomial to factorize in a toric surface.
