Traditional computers work with finite numbers. Situations where the usage of infinite or infinitesimal quantities is required are studied mainly theoretically. In this paper, a recently introduced computational methodology (that is not…
We revisit the notion of probably approximately correct implication bases from the literature and present a first formulation in the language of formal concept analysis, with the goal to investigate whether such bases represent a suitable…
We propose and study a generalized continued fraction algorithm that can be executed in an arbitrary imaginary quadratic field, the novelty being a non-restriction to the five Euclidean cases. Many hallmark properties of classical continued…
We consider the problem of simultaneous approximation to a number and to its square in a general framework that encompasses imaginary quadratic number fields and fields of rational functions in one variable. In this context, we construct…
We discuss two different systems of number representations that both can be called 'base 3/2'. We explain how they are connected. Unlike classical fractional extension, these two systems provide a finite representation for integers. We also…
There is increasing interest in quantum algorithms that are based on the imaginary-time evolution (ITE), a successful classical numerical approach to obtain ground states. However, most of the proposals so far require heavy post-processing…
The question of determining the maximal number of mutually unbiased bases in dimension six has received much attention since their introduction to quantum information theory, but a definitive answer has still not been found. In this paper…
The partial sums of integer sequences that count the occurrences of a specific pattern in the binary expansion of positive integers have been investigated by different authors since the 1950s. In this note, we introduce generalized pattern…
Let $M\subset K$ be number fields. We consider the relation of relative power integral bases of $K$ over $M$ with absolute power integral bases of $K$ over $Q$. We show how generators of absolute power integral bases can be calculated from…
In this paper we obtain a complete list of imaginary $n$-quadratic fields with class groups of exponent $3$ and $5$ under ERH for every positive integer $n$ where an $n$-quadratic field is a number field of degree $2^n$ represented as the…
A new method for computing sums on a quantum computer is introduced. This technique uses the quantum Fourier transform and reduces the number of qubits necessary for addition by removing the need for temporary carry bits. This approach also…
It is shown how Dedekind cuts can be used to introduce the extended real numbers along with sound arithmetic laws via one simple rule for the addition of sets. The crucial idea is that the use of the lower and the upper part of the cuts,…
Inspired by a similar, more general treatment by Kahler, we obtain the spin operator by pulling to the Cartesian coordinate system the azimuthal partial derivative of differential forms. At this point, no unit imaginary enters the picture,…
Complex numbers are theoretically proved and experimentally confirmed as necessary in quantum mechanics and quantum information, and a resource theory of imaginarity of quantum states has been established. In this work, we establish a…
We give an entirely new approach to the problem of mutually unbiased bases (MUBs), based on a Fourier analytic technique in additive combinatorics. The method provides a short and elegant generalization of the fact that there are at most…
The well-known expansion of rational integers in an arbitrary integer base different from $0, 1, -1$ is exploited to study relations between numerical monoids and certain subsemigroups of the multiplicative semigroup of nonzero integers.
By using a new formula of cubing ideals in imaginary quadratic number and function fields combined with Shank's NUCOMP algorithm, Imbert et al. presented a fast algorithms that compute a reduced output of cubing ideals and keep the sizes of…
I present a novel mathematical technique for dealing with the infinities arising from divergent sums and integrals. It assigns them fine-grained infinite values from the set of hyperreal numbers in a manner that refines the standard…
In a multi-base representation of an integer (in contrast to, for example, the binary or decimal representation) the base (or radix) is replaced by products of powers of single bases. The resulting numeral system has desirable properties…
A number field is said to be a CM-number field if it is a totally imaginary quadratic extension of a totally real number field. We define a totally imaginary number field to be of CM-type if it contains a CM-subfield, and of TR-type if it…
