Abstract
In 2005, Kayal suggested that Schoof's algorithm for counting points on elliptic curves over finite fields might yield an approach to factor polynomials over finite fields in deterministic polynomial time. We present an exposition of his idea and then explain details of a generalization involving Pila's algorithm for abelian varieties.
