Line 169: The lead of our article claims that this algorithm was "invented by Karatsuba". Given that the original publication was joint with Ofman, is there reliable sourcing (independent of Karatsuba himself) that this algorithm was invented solely by Karatsuba? If so, what was Ofman's contribution? —[[User:David Eppstein\|David Eppstein]] ([[User talk:David Eppstein\|talk]]) 02:24, 5 August 2013 (UTC) :Hi, I believe the history section does a good job on that: invented by Karatzuba during a seminar of Kolmogorov, published two years later by Kolmogorov and Ofman (another student in the seminar I read somewhere?) under the names of Karatsuba and Ofman. I do not believe that minutes of the seminar exist, so the amount and influence of brainstorming is not reconstructable.--[[User:LutzL\|LutzL]] ([[User talk:LutzL\|talk]]) 14:46, 5 August 2013 (UTC)
