On the modular inversion hidden number problem

We give a rigorous deterministic polynomial time algorithm for the modular inversion hidden number problem introduced by D. Boneh, S. Halevi and N. A. Howgrave-Graham in 2001. For our algorithm we need to be given about 2/3 of the bits of the output, which matches one of the heuristic algorithms...

Description
Summary:We give a rigorous deterministic polynomial time algorithm for the modular inversion hidden number problem introduced by D. Boneh, S. Halevi and N. A. Howgrave-Graham in 2001. For our algorithm we need to be given about 2/3 of the bits of the output, which matches one of the heuristic algorithms of D. Boneh, S. Halevi and N. A. Howgrave-Graham and answers one of their open questions. However their more e cient algorithm that requires only 1/3 of the bits of the output still remains heuristic.
