Finding an irreducible factor, of a polynomial $f(x)$ modulo a prime $p$, is not known to be in deterministic polynomial time. Though there is such a classical algorithm that {\em counts} the number of irreducible factors of $f\bmod p$. We…

We propose to use the complex quantum dynamics of a massive particle in a non-quadratic potential to reconstruct an initial unknown motional quantum state. We theoretically show that the reconstruction can be efficiently done by measuring…

We fix a non-zero integer $a$ and consider arithmetic progressions $a \bmod q$, with $q$ varying over a given range. We show that for certain specific values of $a$, the arithmetic progressions $a \bmod q$ contain, on average, significantly…

For a fixed quadratic irreducible polynomial $f$ with no fixed prime factors at prime arguments, we prove that there exist infinitely many primes $p$ such that $f(p)$ has at most 4 prime factors, improving a classical result of Richert who…

Given an item and a list of values of size $N$. It is required to decide if such item exists in the list. Classical computer can search for the item in O(N). The best known quantum algorithm can do the job in $O(\sqrt{N})$. In this paper, a…

An $n$-ary integral quadratic form is a formal expression $Q(x_1,...,x_n)=\sum_{1\leq i,j\leq n}a_{ij}x_ix_j$ in $n$-variables $x_1,...,x_n$, where $a_{ij}=a_{ji} \in \mathbb{Z}$. We present a poly$(n,k, \log p, \log t)$ randomized…

Let $p$ be an odd prime number. In this article, we study the number of quadratic residues and non-residues modulo $p$ which are multiples of $2$ or $3$ or $4$ and lying in the interval $[1, p-1]$, by applying the Dirichlet's class number…

Let $p$ be an odd prime. In this paper we investigate quadratic residues modulo $p$ and related permutations, congruences and identities. If $a_1<\ldots<a_{(p-1)/2}$ are all the quadratic residues modulo $p$ among $1,\ldots,p-1$, then the…
