For an elliptic curve with CM by $K$ defined over its Hilbert class field, $E/H$, we extend Lenstra's finite fields test to generators of norms of certain ideals in $\mathcal{O}_H$, yielding a sufficient $\widetilde{O}(\log^3 N)$ primality…
After a brief flirtation with logicism in 1917-1920, David Hilbert proposed his own program in the foundations of mathematics in 1920 and developed it, in concert with collaborators such as Paul Bernays and Wilhelm Ackermann, throughout the…
We study new primality tests based on linear recurrent sequences of degree two exploiting a matricial approach. The classical Lucas test arises as a particular case and we see how it can be easily improved. Moreover, this approach shows…
Primality generation is the cornerstone of several essential cryptographic systems. The problem has been a subject of deep investigations, but there is still a substantial room for improvements. Typically, the algorithms used have two parts…
Determining whether a given integer is prime or composite is a basic task in number theory. We present a primality test based on quantum order finding and the converse of Fermat's theorem. For an integer $N$, the test tries to find an…
Prime numbers play a very vital role in modern cryptography and especially the difficulties involved in factoring numbers composed of product of two large prime numbers have been put to use in many modern cryptographic designs. Thus, the…
The study of the complexity of the constraint satisfaction problem (CSP), centred around the Feder-Vardi Dichotomy Conjecture, has been very prominent in the last two decades. After a long concerted effort and many partial results, the…
In this set of three companion manuscripts/articles, we unveil our new results on primality testing and reveal new primality testing algorithms enabled by those results. The results have been classified (and referred to) as…
By the Gottesman-Knill Theorem, the outcome probabilities of Clifford circuits can be computed efficiently. We present an alternative proof of this result for quopit Clifford circuits (i.e., Clifford circuits on collections of $p$-level…
The Baillie-PSW primality test combines Fermat and Lucas probable prime tests. It reports that a number is either composite or probably prime. No odd composite integer has been reported to pass this combination of primality tests if the…
Lucas-Lehmer test is the current standard algorithm used for testing the primality of Mersenne numbers, but it may have limitations in terms of its efficiency and accuracy. Developing new algorithms or improving upon existing ones could…
The Hardy-Littlewood method is a well-known technique in analytic number theory. Among its spectacular applications are Vinogradov's 1937 result that every sufficiently large odd number is a sum of three primes, and a related result of…
This work is in a stream initiated by a paper of Killip and Simon [Ann. of Math. (2003)]. Using methods of Functional Analysis and the classical Szeg\"o Theorem we prove sum rule identities in a very general form. Then, we apply the result…
A cyclic proof system allows us to perform inductive reasoning without explicit inductions. We propose a cyclic proof system for HFLN, which is a higher-order predicate logic with natural numbers and alternating fixed-points. Ours is the…
We study Bernoulli first-passage percolation (FPP) on the triangular lattice $\mathbb{T}$ in which sites have 0 and 1 passage times with probability $p$ and $1-p$, respectively. Denote by $\mathcal {C}_{\infty}$ the infinite cluster with…
A general and fast method is conceived for computing the cyclic convolution of n points, where n is a prime number. This method fully exploits the internal structure of the cyclic matrix, and hence leads to significant reduction of the…
This paper provides a proof of a LLT-like test for Fermat numbers, based on the properties of Lucas Sequences and on the method of Lehmer.
The purpose of this article is to delve into the properties of invariants. The properties, explained in [2], reveal new ways to develop algorithms that allow us to test the primality of a number. In this article, some of these are shown,…
There are various models of first passage percolation (FPP) in $\mathbb R^d$. We want to start a very general study of this topic. To this end we generalize the first passage percolation model on the lattice $\mathbb Z^d$ to $\mathbb R^d$…
An outstanding problem in statistical mechanics is the order parameter of the chiral Potts model. An elegant conjecture for this was made in 1983. It has since been successfully tested against series expansions, but as far as the author is…
