Some algorithms for sparse polynomial evaluation

While there exists a growing literature dealing with the interpolation of sparse polynomials, fewer references address problems related to the evaluation of such polynomials. A notable exception is a result by Canny, Kaltofen and Lakshman, which shows that this can be done in amortized polylogarithmic time, provided we use very specific evaluation points. In this talk, I will discuss some questions around the evaluation of sparse polynomials for general evaluation points. This is joint work with Dorian Nogneng and Larry Li.Non UBCUnreviewedAuthor affiliation: University of Waterloo CanadaFacult
