About:
Mpfrcx is an extension to the GNU Multiple Precision Arithmetic Library (GMP) designed for efficient arithmetic of univariate polynomials. It provides high-performance routines for polynomial multiplication, division, and other operations using arbitrary precision coefficients. This library is essential for computational mathematics and algebra systems requiring exact polynomial arithmetic over large numbers.

Key Features:

Arbitrary precision polynomial arithmetic
High-performance multiplication and division algorithms
Seamless integration with GMP
C library for maximum performance

Use Cases:

Computer algebra systems (CAS) development
Cryptographic research and implementation
Number theory and algebraic geometry computations

Alternatives:

FLINT – FLINT is a more comprehensive library for number theory, while Mpfrcx focuses specifically on univariate polynomial arithmetic over GMP.
NTL – NTL provides number theory functionality but Mpfrcx offers tighter GMP integration for polynomial-specific tasks.
