Abstract

A family of root-finding algorithms is constructed that combines knowledge of the branched covering structure of a polynomial with a path-lifting algorithm for finding individual roots. In particular, the family includes an algorithm that computes an ε-factorization of a polynomial of degree d that has an arithmetic complexity. At the present time, this complexity is the best known in terms of the degree.
