  • Abstract
    The first known polynomial-time algorithm for computing the inverse of a K-algebra automorphism is presented. The algorithm works over a commutative ring K and is based on a polynomial decomposition algorithm. A polynomial-time algorithm for computing the left composition factor of a multivariate decomposition is also presented. Two related open problems are stated
