In this paper, we have proposed a novel VLSI-oriented approach to computing the rotation matrix entries from the quaternion coefficients. The advantage of this approach is the complete elimination of multiplications and replacing them by…
Univariate polynomial root-finding is a classical subject, still important for modern computing. Frequently one seeks just the real roots of a polynomial with real coefficients. They can be approximated at a low computational cost if the…
Let $p_{1}, p_{2}$ be two distinct prime integers, let $n$ be a positive integer, $n$$\geq 3$ and let $\xi_{n} $ be a primitive root of order $n$ of the unity. In this paper we obtain a complete characterization for a quaternion algebra…
Classifications and representations are two main topics in the theory of quadratic forms. In this paper, we consider these topics of ternary quadratic forms. For a given squarefree integer $N$, first we give the classification of positive…
Let $p$ be a prime and $a$ a quadratic non-residue $\bmod p$. Then the set of integral solutions of the diophantine equation $x_0^2 - ax_1^2 -px_2^2 + apx_3^2=1$ form a cocompact discrete subgroup $\Gamma_{p,a}\subset SL(2,\mathbb{R})$ and…
Given $h, N \in \mathbb{N}$ satisfying $1 \leqslant h \leqslant N^2$, we prove an asymptotic formula for the number of solutions to the equation $x_1 x_2 - x_3 x_4 = h$ with $x_1, \ldots, x_4 \in [-N,N] \cap \mathbb{Z}$. We use a…
Any permutation polynomial is an $ n $-cycle permutation. When $n$ is a specific small positive integer, one can obtain efficient permutations, such as involutions, triple-cycle permutations and quadruple-cycle permutations. These…
It is widely known that the lower bound for the algorithmic complexity of square matrix multiplication resorts to at least $n^2$ arithmetic operations. The justification builds upon the following reasoning: given that there are $2 n^2$…
In this work, a rationalized algorithm for calculating the quotient of two quaternions is presented which reduces the number of underlying real multiplications. Hardware for fast multiplication is much more expensive than hardware for fast…
In a quaternion order of class number one, an element can be factored in multiple ways depending on the order of the factorization of its reduced norm. The fact that multiplication is not commutative causes an element to induce a…
In Section 6.6 of the book {\it Number Theory, Volume I: Tools and Diophantine Equations, Graduate Texts in Mathematics, Volume 239, Springer (2007)}, Cohen investigated the solubility of the equation $n=x^4+y^4$ in the rational numbers…
We show that the bilinear complexity of multiplication in a non-split quaternion algebra over a field of characteristic distinct from 2 is 8. This question is motivated by the problem of characterising algebras of almost minimal rank…
Quaternions are an important tool to describe the orientation of a molecule. This paper considers the use of quaternions in matching two conformations of a molecule, in interpolating rotations, in performing statistics on orientational…
Motivated by a quaternionic formulation of quantum mechanics, we discuss quaternionic and complex linear differential equations. We touch only a few aspects of the mathematical theory, namely the resolution of the second order differential…
Some preliminary results are reported on the equivalence of any n-queens problem with the roots of a Boolean valued quadratic form via a generic dimensional reduction scheme. It is then proven that the solutions set is encoded in the…
Based on a brief review on developments of number system, a new developed pattern is proposed. The quaternion is extended to a matrix form aI+bC+cB+dA, in which the unit matrix I and three special matrices C,B,A correspond to number 1 and…
N-matrices are real $n\times n$ matrices all of whose principal minors are negative. We provide (i) an $O(2^n)$ test to detect whether or not a given matrix is an N-matrix, and (ii) a characterization of N-matrices, leading to the recursive…
This paper proposes a novel matrix rank-one decomposition for quaternion Hermitian matrices, which admits a stronger property than the previous results in (sturm2003cones,huang2007complex,ai2011new). The enhanced property can be used to…
The paper explores further the computation of the quaternionic numerical range of a complex matrix. We prove a modified version of a conjecture by So and Tompson. Specifically, we show that the shape of the quaternionic numerical range for…
Two arrays form a periodic complementary pair if the sum of their periodic autocorrelations is a delta function. Finding such pairs, however, is challenging for large arrays whose entries are constrained to a small alphabet. One such…
