Abstract:
. We introduce an algorithm that computes the prime numbers up to N using O(N=log log N) additions and N 1=2+o(1) bits of memory. The algorithm enumerates representations of integers by certain binary quadratic forms. We present implementation results for this algorithm and one of the best previous algorithms. 1.
