We characterize the irreducible polynomials that occur as the characteristic polynomial of an automorphism of an even unimodular lattice of a given signature, generalizing a theorem of Gross and McMullen. As part of the proof, we give a general criterion i ...
We establish p-adic versions of the Manin-Mumford conjecture, which states that an irreducible subvariety of an abelian variety with dense torsion has to be the translate of a subgroup by a torsion point. We do so in the context of certain rigid analytic s ...
For~q a prime power, the discrete logarithm problem (DLP) in~\Fq consists in finding, for any g∈Fq× and h∈⟨g⟩, an integer~x such that gx=h. We present an algorithm for computing discrete logarithm ...
Let k be a global field of characteristic not 2, and let f is an element of k[X] be an irreducible polynomial. We show that a non-degenerate quadratic space has an isometry with minimal polynomial f if and only if such an isometry exists over all the compl ...
If L/K is a finite Galois extension of local fields, then we say that the valuation criterion VC(L/K) holds if there is an integer d such that every element x is an element of L with valuation d generates a normal basis for L/K. Answering a question of Byo ...

For any positive integers n≥3,r≥1 we present formulae for the number of irreducible polynomials of degree n over the finite field F2r where the coefficients of xn−1, xn−2 and xn−3 are zero. Our proofs involve coun ...
In this paper we want to show the use of inverse solutions ‒in particular cortical current density (CCD)‒with respect to the current surface electroencephalogram (EEG) in classifying event related potentials. We construct feature vector from selected chann ...
In this paper, we revisit the construction of fail-stop signatures from the factoring assumption. These signatures were originally proposed to provide information-theoretic-based security against forgeries. In contrast to classical signature schemes, in wh ...
Describes a distributed implementation of two factoring algorithms, the elliptic curve method (ECM) and the multiple polynomial quadratic sieve algorithm (MPQS). The authors' ECM-implementation on a network of DEC MicroVAX processors has factored several n ...
