In this article, we obtain upper bounds on the number of irreducible factors of some classes of polynomials having integer coefficients, which in particular yield some of the well known irreducibility criteria. For devising our results, we…
We show that the exponent of distribution of the sequence of squarefree numbers in arithmetic progressions of prime modulus is $\geq 2/3 + 1/57$, improving a result of Prachar from 1958. Our main tool is an upper bound for certain bilinear…
In this paper we present the experimental results that more clearly than any theory suggest an answer to the question: when in detection of large (probably) prime numbers to apply, a very resource demanding, Miller-Rabin algorithm. Or, to…
We estimate weighted character sums with determinants $ad-bc $ of $2\times 2$ matrices modulo a prime $p$ with entries $a,b,c,d $ varying over the interval $ [1,N]$. Our goal is to obtain nontrivial bounds for values of $N$ as small as…
We introduce DM-RSA (Dual Modulus RSA), a variant of the RSA cryptosystem that employs two distinct moduli symmetrically to enhance security. By leveraging the Chinese Remainder Theorem (CRT) for decryption, DM-RSA provides increased…
In this paper we present new arithmetical and algebraic results following the work of Babindamana and al. on hyperbolas and describe in the new results an approach to attacking a RSA-type modulus based on continued fractions, independent…
The spectral test of random number generators (R.R. Coveyou and R.D. McPherson, 1967) is generalized. The sequence of random numbers is analyzed explicitly, not just via their n-tupel distributions. We find that the mixed multiplicative…
We examine regular and irregular repeat-accumulate (RA) codes with repetition degrees which are all even. For these codes and with a particular choice of an interleaver, we give an upper bound on the decoding error probability of a…
Let $w$ be a word in a free group. As was revealed by Magee and Puder in [arXiv:1802.04862], the stable commutator length (scl) of $w$, a well-known topological invariant, can also be defined in terms of certain stable Fourier coefficients…
Suppose that for each n >= 0 we have a representation $M_n$ of the symmetric group S_n. Such sequences arise in a wide variety of contexts, and often exhibit uniformity in some way. We prove a number of general results along these lines in…
Let $K=\mathbb{Q}(\omega)$ with $\omega$ the root of a degree $n$ monic irreducible polynomial $f\in\mathbb{Z}[X]$. We show the degree $n$ polynomial $N(\sum_{i=1}^{n-k}x_i\omega^{i-1})$ in $n-k$ variables formed by setting the final $k$…
We represent the Riemann zeta function in the half-plane $\Re s >1$ via series whose terms admit geometrically decreasing bounds. Due to an underlying recurrence relation, which is used to compute coefficients entering into the terms, the…
We investigate the distribution of $\alpha p$ modulo one in quadratic number fields $\mathbb{K}$ with class number one, where $p$ is restricted to prime elements in the ring of integers of $\mathbb{K}$. Here we improve the relevant exponent…
The security of the RSA cryptosystem is based on the intractability of computing Euler's totient function phi(n) for large integers n. Although deriving phi(n) deterministically remains computationally infeasible for cryptographically…
We obtain new bounds on some trilinear and quadrilinear character sums, which are non-trivial starting from very short ranges of the variables. An application to an apparently new problem on oscillations of characters on differences between…
In this paper we give a refinement of the bound of D. A. Burgess for multiplicative character sums modulo a prime number $q$. This continues a series of previous logarithmic improvements, which are mostly due to H. Iwaniec and E. Kowalski.…
First, we prove the Kac-Wakimoto conjecture on modular invariance of characters of exceptional affine W-algebras. In fact more generally we prove modular invariance of characters of all lisse W-algebras obtained through Hamiltonian…
On the assumption of the Riemann hypothesis, we give explicit upper bounds on the difference between consecutive prime numbers.
We give combinatorial proofs of several recent results due to Merca on the sum of different parts congruent to $r$ modulo $m$ in all partitions of $n$. The proofs make use of some well known involutions from the literature and some new…
A probabilistic approach to the study of the number of zeros of complex harmonic polynomials was initiated by W. Li and A. Wei (2009), who derived a Kac-Rice type formula for the expected number of zeros of random harmonic polynomials with…
