  • Abstract
    In this work we study how the decomposition of n as a sum of four squares can be used to create a backdoor in the initialization of RSA prime numbers. The trapdoor created, can lead to a polynomial time factorization of the created RSA scheme, yet the created integerPs bear no resemblance to a detectable pattern.
