We introduce a general purpose algorithm for rapidly computing certain types of oscillatory integrals which frequently arise in problems connected to wave propagation and general hyperbolic equations. The problem is to evaluate numerically…

The bound to factor large integers is dominated by the computational effort to discover numbers that are smooth, typically performed by sieving a polynomial sequence. On a von Neumann architecture, sieving has log-log amortized time…

We consider the problem of computing the Euler characteristic of an abstract simplicial complex given by its vertices and facets. We show that this problem is #P-complete and present two new practical algorithms for computing Euler…

The two Fresnel Integrals are real and imaginary part of the integral over complex-valued exp(ix^2) as a function of the upper limit. They are special cases of the integrals over x^m*exp(i*x^n) for integer powers m and n, which are…

The Unbounded Subset-Sum Problem (USSP) is defined as: given sum $s$ and a set of integers $W\leftarrow \{p_1,\dots,p_n\}$ output a set of non-negative integers $\{y_1,\dots,y_n\}$ such that $p_1y_1+\dots+p_ny_n=s$. The USSP is an…

We prove that P != NP by proving the existence of a class of functions we call Tau, each of whose members satisfies the conditions of one-way functions. Each member of Tau is a function computable in polynomial time, with negligible…

Let E_n={x_i=1, x_i+x_j=x_k, x_i*x_j=x_k: i,j,k \in {1,...,n}}. We prove: (1) there is an algorithm that for every computable function f:N-->N returns a positive integer m(f), for which a second algorithm accepts on the input f and any…

We initiate the study of \emph{inverse} problems in approximate uniform generation, focusing on uniform generation of satisfying assignments of various types of Boolean functions. In such an inverse problem, the algorithm is given uniform…

We give efficient algorithms for finding power-sum decomposition of an input polynomial $P(x)= \sum_{i\leq m} p_i(x)^d$ with component $p_i$s. The case of linear $p_i$s is equivalent to the well-studied tensor decomposition problem while…

In the Nonnegative Matrix Factorization (NMF) problem we are given an $n \times m$ nonnegative matrix $M$ and an integer $r > 0$. Our goal is to express $M$ as $A W$ where $A$ and $W$ are nonnegative matrices of size $n \times r$ and $r…

In this paper, basing on the linear algebra methods and elementary techniques, for any positive integers $ e $ and $ n $, we obtain a recursion formula for the generalized Euler function $ \varphi_e(n) $, which is determined by some…

In this paper, we investigate decompositions of the partition function $p(n)$ from the additive theory of partitions considering the famous M\"{o}bius function $\mu(n)$ from multiplicative number theory. Some combinatorial interpretations…

Integer programs with m constraints are solvable in pseudo-polynomial time in $\Delta$, the largest coefficient in a constraint, when m is a fixed constant. We give a new algorithm with a running time of $O(\sqrt{m}\Delta)^{2m} + O(nm)$,…

Let $b>1$ be an odd positive integer and $k, l \in \mathbb{N}$. In this paper, we show that every positive rational number can be written as $\varphi(m^{2})/(\varphi(n^{2}))^{b}$ and $\varphi(k(m^{2}-1))/\varphi(ln^{2})$, where $m, n\in…

Recently, Merca and Schmidt proved a number of identities relating partitions of an integer with two classic number-theoretic functions, namely the M\"obius function and Euler's totient function. Their demonstrations were mainly algebraic.…

Maximum likelihood iteration is one of the most commonly used reconstruction algorithms in quantum tomography. The main appeal of the method is that it is easy to implement and that it converges reliably to a physically meaningful density…

NP complete problem is one of the most challenging issues. The question of whether all problems in NP are also in P is generally considered one of the most important open questions in mathematics and theoretical computer science as it has…

Motivated by an application of semigroup variants to the discrete log problem in groups and related cryptographic applications, we introduce a new kind of totient function, related to both Euler's function and a generalisation of Euler's…

Euler's theorem asserts that $A(n)=B(n)$ where $A(n)$ is the number of partitions of $n$ into distinct parts and $B(n)$ is the number of partitions of $n$ into odd parts. In this paper, it is proved that for $n>0$, \begin{align*}…

This is the latest in a series of articles aimed at exploring the relationship between the complexity classes of P and NP. In the previous papers, we have proved that the sat CNF problem is polynomially reduced to the problem of finding a…
