The paper explores a novel cryptosystem for digital signatures based on linear equa-tions for logarithmic signatures. A logarithmic signature serves as a fundamental cryptographic primitive, characterized by properties such as nonlinearity,…

The number of steps any classical computer requires in order to find the prime factors of an $l$-digit integer $N$ increases exponentially with $l$, at least using algorithms known at present. Factoring large integers is therefore…

Given a string of length $n$ that is composed of $r$ runs of letters from the alphabet $\{0,1,\ldots,\sigma{-}1\}$ such that $2 \le \sigma \le r$, we describe a data structure that, provided $r \le n / \log^{\omega(1)} n$, stores the string…

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…

Let $p$ be a prime and ${\mathfrak P}_p$ the set of positive integers which are prime to $p$. Recently, Wang and Cai proved that for every positive integer $r$ and prime $p>2$ $$ \sum_{\substack{i+j+k=p^r\\ i,j,k\in{\mathfrak P}_p}}…

Let $x\geq 1$ be a large number, and let $1 \leq a <q $ be integers such that $\gcd(a,q)=1$ and $q=O(\log^c)$ with $c>0$ constant. This note proves that the counting function for the number of primes $p \in \{p=qn+a: n \geq1 \}$ with a…

For any relatively prime integers $r$ and $s$, let $a_{r,s}(n)$ denote the number of $(r,s)$-regular partitions of a positive integer of $n$ into distinct parts. Prasad and Prasad (2018) proved many infinite families of congruences modulo 2…

A new integer deterministic factorization algorithm, rated at arithmetic operations to $O(N^{1/6+\varepsilon})$ arithmetic operations, is presented in this note. Equivalently, given the least $(\log N)/6$ bits of a factor of the balanced…

A determined algorithm is presented for solving the rSUM problem for any natural r with a sub-quadratic assessment of time complexity in some cases. In terms of an amount of memory used the obtained algorithm is the nlog^3(n) order. The…

Let $p_n$ denote the $n$-th prime. For any $m\geq 1$, there exist infinitely many $n$ such that $p_{n}-p_{n-m}\leq C_m$ for some large constant $C_m>0$, and $$p_{n+1}-p_n\geq \frac{c_m\log n\log\log n\log\log\log\log n}{\log\log\log n}, $$…

This work is a probabilistic study of the 'primes' of the Cram\'er model. We prove that there exists a set of integers $\mathcal S$ of density 1 such that \begin{equation}\liminf_{ \mathcal S\ni n\to\infty} (\log n)\mathbb{P} \{S_n\…

For any positive integers $s$ and $t$, let $Q_{t}^{s}(n)$ denotes the number of partitions of a positive integer $n$ into distinct parts such that no part is congruent to $s$ or $t-s$ modulo $t$. We prove some Ramanujan-type congruences for…

We introduce a new probabilistic public-key cryptosystem which combines the main ingredients of the well-known RSA and Rabin cryptosystems. We investigate the security and performance of our new scheme in comparison to the other two.

Let $A\subset [1,x]$ be a non-empty set of primes with $|A|= \alpha x(\log x)^{-1}$. We prove that there exist absolute constants $c_1,c_2>0$ such that, as $x$ gets sufficiently large, we have $|A+A|\geq c_1(\log x)(\log \log…

This paper considers solutions (x_1, x_2, ..., x_n) to the cyclic system of n simultaneous congruences r (x_1x_2 ...x_n)/x_i = s (mod |x_i|), for fixed nonzero integers r,s with r>0 and gcd(r,s)=1. It shows this system has a finite number…

Let $N$ denotes a sufficiently large even integer, $p$ denotes a prime and $P_{r}$ denotes an integer with at most $r$ prime factors. In this paper, we study the solutions of the equation $N-p=P_3$ and consider two special cases where $p$…
