Abstract

This paper presents a mathematical algorithm that supports the identification of prime numbers the product of which results in a given number. The associated research has found several dissimilar factorization algorithms. Considering that, none of the found algorithms resembles the one presented here; it is the author's belief that the presented algorithm is original. Using the algorithm presented in this paper, factorization is not a trial and error process, but a finite step by step process that can be very easily programmed and executed. Consequently, the ability to easily factorize a given number will disrupt existing numerical methodologies, while opening up possibilities for new cryptosyntesis and cryptanalysis areas of research and applications.
