  • Abstract
    This paper presents a novel algorithm for number factorization, which makes use of some classical calculus theory for real functions. An iterative procedure is constructed that searches for specific features of the image values in a function related with the factorization of the number. Studies of the complexity of the method are being performed and its applicability to very large numbers is being tested. In general, the method can be implemented in a very simple manner and shows promising applicability in RSA encryption
