We give a deterministic algorithm that, given a composite number $N$ and a target order $D \ge N^{1/6}$, runs in time $D^{1/2+o(1)}$ and finds either an element $a \in \mathbb{Z}_N^*$ of multiplicative order at least $D$, or a nontrivial…

We prove the integrality of the open instanton numbers in two examples of counting holomorphic disks on local Calabi-Yau threefolds: the resolved conifold and the degenerate $ \P \times \P $. Given the B-model superpotential, we extract by…
We present an unconditional CRT algorithm to compute the modular polynomial $\Phi_\ell(X,Y)$ in quasi-linear time. The main ingredients of our algorithm are: the embedding of $\ell$-isogenies in smooth-degree isogenies in higher dimension,…
We study the uniform distribution of the polynomial sequence $\lambda(P)=(\lfloor P(k) \rfloor )_{k\geq 1}$ modulo integers, where $P(x)$ is a polynomial with real coefficients. In the nonlinear case, we show that $\lambda(P)$ is uniformly…

Recently, Ko\c{c} proposed a neat and efficient algorithm for computing \[ x = a^{-1} \pmod {p^k} \] for a prime $p$ based on the exact solution of linear equations using $p$-adic expansions. The algorithm requires only addition and right…
A time-dependent monic polynomial in the z variable with N distinct roots such that exactly one root has multiplicity m>=2 is considered. For k=1,2, the k-th derivatives of the N roots are expressed in terms of the derivatives of order j<=…
We obtain asymptotic formulas for sums over arithmetic progressions of coefficients of polynomials of the form $$\prod_{j=1}^n\prod_{k=1}^{p-1}(1-q^{pj-k})^s,$$ where $p$ is an odd prime and $n, s$ are positive integers. Let us denote by…
We give improvements of the deformation method for computing the zeta function of a generic projective hypersurface in characteristic~$p$ that either reduce the dependence on~$p$ of the time complexity to $\tilde{O}(p^{1/2})$ or that of the…
We address complexity issues for linear differential equations in characteristic $p>0$: resolution and computation of the $p$-curvature. For these tasks, our main focus is on algorithms whose complexity behaves well with respect to $p$. We…
In the present paper we provide a probabilistic polynomial time algorithm that reduces the complete factorization of any squarefree integer $n$ to counting points on elliptic curves modulo $n$, succeeding with probability $1-\varepsilon$,…
A polynomial with integer coefficients yields a family of dynamical systems indexed by primes as follows: for any prime $p$, reduce its coefficients mod $p$ and consider its action on the field $\mathbb{F}_p$. We say a subset of…
We study the question of when the coefficients of a hypergeometric series are p-adically unbounded for a given rational prime p. Our first main result is a necessary and sufficient criterion (applicable to all but finitely many primes) for…
