block-wiedemann-example

A Python implementation of the Block-Wiedemann (Coppersmith) algorithm.

Warning: This code is buggy and painfully slow. It was never meant for serious use, just for reference.

Look at main.py for a usage example. It generates a non-singular matrix and computes the minmial polynomial by Wiedemann's algorithm (Solving sparse linear equations over finite fields, D. H. Wiedemann, IEEE Trans. Inform. Theory (1986)) and by Coppersmith's Block-Wiedemann algorithm (Solving Homogeneous Linear Equations Over GF(2) Via Block Wiedemann Algorithm, Don Coppersmith, Mathematics of Computations (1994)).
