The computation of row echelon form is one of the main bottlenecks in the F4 algorithm. Several state of the art implementations use a probabilistic algorithm attributed to Monagan, Pearce, and Steel to accelerate this computation. Despite this, no bound on the probability that the algorithm returns an incorrect result appears to be available. In this paper, we provide such a bound. Furthermore, building on this result, we propose a Las-Vegas variant of the F4 algorithm and show experimentally that it can outperform deterministic F4 on some classical examples.
