In this paper, we provide details on the proofs of the quantum polynomial time algorithm of Biasse and Song (SODA 16) for computing the $S$-unit group of a number field. This algorithm directly implies polynomial time methods to calculate…

As it follows from G\"odel's incompleteness theorems, any consistent formal system of axioms and rules of inference should imply a true unprovable statement. Actually, this fundamental principle can be efficiently applicable in…

Let $K$ be the number field determined by a monic irreducible polynomial $f(x)$ with integer coefficients. In previous papers we parameterized the prime ideals of $K$ in terms of certain invariants attached to Newton polygons of higher…

In this paper, we give a method to construct "good" exponential families systematically by representation theory. More precisely, we consider a homogeneous space $G/H$ as a sample space and construct an exponential family invariant under…
