Introducing RPF: A High-Performance Alternative to Karatsuba for Large-Number Squaring

  • 1.  Introducing RPF: A High-Performance Alternative to Karatsuba for Large-Number Squaring

    Posted Tue April 22, 2025 10:10 AM

    Hello IBM Community,

    I'm Krishil Rohit Sheth, and over the past 4 years, I've developed RPF, a new algorithm for squaring large numbers that outperforms the traditional Karatsuba method.

    Key Highlights:

    • Enhanced Performance: RPF delivers faster execution times compared to Karatsuba, even when both are optimized with GMP.

    • Scalability: The algorithm scales efficiently with increasing input sizes.

    • Cryptographic Applications: RPF is designed with cryptographic use cases in mind, making it suitable for integration into systems like GnuPG and Libgcrypt.

    Given IBM's emphasis on cryptographic advancements, I believe RPF could contribute to enhancing cryptographic operations within IBM's ecosystem.

    I'm eager to discuss potential collaborations, integrations, or licensing opportunities.

    Looking forward to your insights and feedback.

    Best regards,
