We derive bounds on the expected loss for authenti-cation protocols in channels which are constrained due to noisyconditions and communication costs. This is motivated by anumber of authentication protocols, where at least some partof the authentication is ...
Let be a symmetric space of noncompact type. A result of Gelander provides exponential upper bounds in terms of the volume for the torsion homology of the noncompact arithmetic locally symmetric spaces . We show that under suitable assumptions on this resu ...
In this paper, we study the redundancy of Huffman codes. In particular, we consider sources for which the probability of one of the source symbols is known. We prove a conjecture of Ye and Yeung regarding the upper bound on the redundancy of such Huffman c ...

We estimate the selection constant in the following geometric selection theorem by Pach: For every positive integer d, there is a constant such that whenever are n-element subsets of , we can find a point and subsets for every , each of size at least , suc ...
Le but de cet article est de donner des bornes supérieures pour les minima euclidiens de corps abéliens, en particulier dans le cas des corps abéliens de conducteurs des puissances de nombres premiers. ...
As many whole genomes are sequenced, comparative genomics is moving from pairwise comparisons to multiway comparisons framed within a phylogenetic tree. A central problem in this process is the inference of data for internal nodes of the tree from data giv ...
We show that the transcendence degree of a real function field over an arbitrary real base field is a strict lower bound for its Pythagoras number and a weak lower bound for all its higher Pythagoras numbers. ...
We study the nonlinear stochastic heat equation in the spatial domain R, driven by space-time white noise. A central special case is the parabolic Anderson model. The initial condition is taken to be a measure on R, such as the Dirac delta function, but th ...
The aim of this paper is to give upper bounds for the Euclidean minima of abelian fields of odd prime power conductor. In particular, these bounds imply Minkowski's conjecture for totally real number fields of conductor p(r), where p is an odd prime number ...
