In this paper we give necessary and sufficient trace conditions for an n by n matrix over any commutative and associative ring with unity to be a sum of k-th powers of matrices over that ring, where n,k are integers greater equal 2. We…

In 1876, Edouard Lucas showed that if an integer $b$ exists such that $b^{n-1} \equiv 1 (\mathrm{mod} \ n)$ and $b^{(n-1)/p} \not\equiv 1( \mathrm{mod} \ n)$ for all prime divisors $p$ of $n-1$ , then $n$ is prime, a result known as Lucas's…

We present a quantum version of the classical probabilistic algorithms $\grave{a}$ la Rabin. The quantum algorithm is based on the essential use of Grover's operator for the quantum search of a database and of Shor's Fourier transform for…

We consider polynomial equations, or systems of polynomial equations, with integer coefficients, modulo prime numbers $p$. We offer an elementary approach based on a counting method. The outcome is a weak form of the Lang-Weil lower bound…

Building on work of Boneh, Durfee and Howgrave-Graham, we present a deterministic algorithm that provably finds all integers $p$ such that $p^r \mathrel| N$ in time $O(N^{1/4r+\epsilon})$ for any $\epsilon > 0$. For example, the algorithm…

We propose a quantum circuit that creates a pure state corresponding to the quantum superposition of all prime numbers less than 2^n, where n is the number of qubits of the register. This Prime state can be built using Grover's algorithm,…

Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field of discriminant less than or equal to -7 and $K_{(N)}$ be its ray class field modulo $N$ for an integer $N$ greater than 1. We prove that singular values of certain Siegel functions generate $K_{(N)}$…

For almost 35 years, Sch{\"o}nhage-Strassen's algorithm has been the fastest algorithm known for multiplying integers, with a time complexity O(n $\times$ log n $\times$ log log n) for multiplying n-bit inputs. In 2007, F{\"u}rer proved…

The elliptic curve primality proving (ECPP) algorithm is one of the current fastest practical algorithms for proving the primality of large numbers. Its running time cannot be proven rigorously, but heuristic arguments show that it should…

Let p denote an odd prime. For all p-admissible conductors c over a quadratic number field \(K=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d})\), p-ring spaces \(V_p(c)\) modulo c are introduced by defining a morphism \(\psi:\,f\mapsto V_p(f)\) from the divisor…

In this paper, we propose a new primality test, and then we employ this test to find a formula for {\pi} that computes the number of primes within any interval. We finally propose a new formula that computes the nth prime number as well as…

Two rational primes p, q are called dual elliptic if there is an elliptic curve E mod p with q points. They were introduced as an interesting means for combining the strengths of the elliptic curve and cyclotomy primality proving…

We study the computational complexity of certain integrable quantum theories in 1+1 dimensions. We formalize a model of quantum computation based on these theories. In this model, distinguishable particles start out with known momenta and…

Consider a quartic $q$-Weil polynomial $f$. Motivated by equidistribution considerations we define, for each prime $\ell$, a local factor which measures the relative frequency with which $f\bmod \ell$ occurs as the characteristic polynomial…

We present an algorithm that, on input of a CM-field $K$, an integer $k\ge1$, and a prime $r \equiv 1 \bmod k$, constructs a $q$-Weil number $\pi \in \O_K$ corresponding to an ordinary, simple abelian variety $A$ over the field $\F$ of $q$…
