A computational approach to pocklington certificates in type theory

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

Pocklington certificates are known to provide short proofs of primality. We show how to perform this in the framework of formal, mechanically checked, proofs. We present an encoding of certificates for the proof system Coq which yields radically improved performances by relying heavily on computations inside and outside of the system (two-level approach).
