Integer factorization
ID: integer-factorization
Complexity: NP-intermediate as of 2020:
- expected not to be NP-complete because it would imply NP != Co-NP: cstheory.stackexchange.com/questions/167/what-are-the-consequences-of-factoring-being-np-complete#comment104849_169
- expected not to be in P because "could we be that dumb that we haven't found a solution after having tried for that long?
The basis of RSA: RSA. But not proved NP-complete, which leads to:
