The distributional analysis of Euclidean algorithms was carried out by Baladi and Vall\'{e}e. They showed the asymptotic normality of the number of division steps and associated costs in the Euclidean algorithm as a random variable on the…

This study provides new results about the probabilistic behaviour of a class of Euclidean algorithms: the asymptotic distribution of a whole class of cost-parameters associated to these algorithms is normal. For the cost corresponding to…

The binary Euclidean algorithm is a modification of the classical Euclidean algorithm for computation of greatest common divisors which avoids ordinary integer division in favour of division by powers of two only. The expectation of the…

The problem is considered of arranging symbols around a cycle, in such a way that distances between different instances of a same symbol be as uniformly distributed as possible. A sequence of moments is defined for cycles, similarly to the…

We investigate the number of steps taken by three variants of the Euclidean algorithm on average over Farey fractions. We show asymptotic formulae for these averages restricted to the interval $(0,1/2)$, establishing that they behave…

This article focuses on some rings of integers of number fields which are known to be norm-Euclidean domains, but for which no explicit algorithm computing the Euclidean division has yet been studied or implemented. The rings of integers we…

The binary Euclidean algorithm is a variant of the classical Euclidean algorithm. It avoids multiplications and divisions, except by powers of two, so is potentially faster than the classical algorithm on a binary machine. We describe the…

The Euclidean algorithm makes possible a simple but powerful generalization of Taylor's theorem. Instead of expanding a function in a series around a single point, one spreads out the spectrum to include any number of points with given…

When people mention the mathematical achievements of Euclid, his geometrical achievements always spring to mind. But, his Number-Theoretical achievements (See Books 7, 8 and 9 in his magnum opus \emph{Elements} [1]) are rarely spoken. The…

We define the regular Euclidean algorithm and the general form which leads to the method of least absolute remainders and also the method of negative remainders. We are going to show that if looked from the perspective of subtraction, the…

We give a Euclidean division algorithm for the real quadratic fields $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{m})$ for $m \in \{2, 3, 6, 7, 11, 19\}$, with the property that the norm of the remainder depends on the first Euclidean minimum of the field. In each…

The list of norm-Euclidean imaginary quadratic fields is known and finite. For each known case, we give a division algorithm that finds a remainder at distance less than the Euclidean minimum of the field.
