Given complex number $C=a+ib$, I want to find two complex numbers $C_1=x+iy$ and $C_2=z+iw$ such that $C=C_1*C_2$ (a,b,x,y, z and w are all non zero integers). This problem is at least as hard as Integer factoring. Prime complex number has one as its only factor.
Does this problem reduce to integer factoring? Is it NP-hard?
