For a composite $n$ and an odd $c$ with $c$ not dividing $n$, the number of solutions to the equation $n+a\equiv b\mod c$ with $a,b$ quadratic residues modulus $c$ is calculated. We establish a direct relation with those modular solutions…

The n-way number partitioning problem, a fundamental challenge in combinatorial optimization, has significant implications for applications such as fair division and machine scheduling. Despite these problems being NP-hard, many…

This paper shows that, if we could examine the entire history of a hidden variable, then we could efficiently solve problems that are believed to be intractable even for quantum computers. In particular, under any hidden-variable theory…

We resolve a long-standing open question, about the existence of a constant-factor approximation algorithm for the average-case \textsc{Decision Tree} problem with uniform probability distribution over the hypotheses. We answer the question…

In this work, we prove the joint convergence in distribution of $q$ variables modulo one obtained as partial sums of a sequence of i.i.d. square integrable random variables multiplied by a common factor given by some function of an…

We prove optimal error bounds for a second order in time finite element approximation of curve shortening flow in possibly higher codimension. In addition, we introduce a second order in time method for curve diffusion. Both schemes are…

A new integer deterministic factorization algorithm, rated at arithmetic operations to $O(N^{1/6+\varepsilon})$ arithmetic operations, is presented in this note. Equivalently, given the least $(\log N)/6$ bits of a factor of the balanced…

We establish the convergences (with respect to the simulation time $t$; the number of particles $N$; the timestep $\gamma$) of a Moran/Fleming-Viot type particle scheme toward the quasi-stationary distribution of a diffusion on the…

We consider the distribution of the largest prime divisor of the integers in the interval $[2,x]$, and investigate in particular the mode of this distribution, the prime number(s) which show up most often in this list. In addition to giving…

In this article we develop an algorithm which computes a divisor of an integer $N$, which is assumed to be neither prime nor the power of a prime. The algorithm uses discrete time heat diffusion on a finite graph. If $N$ has $m$ distinct…

The late-time distribution function P(x,t) of a particle diffusing in a one-dimensional logarithmic potential is calculated for arbitrary initial conditions. We find a scaling solution with three surprising features: (i) the solution is…

We use bounds of mixed character sum to study the distribution of solutions to certain polynomial systems of congruences modulo a prime $p$. In particular, we obtain nontrivial results about the number of solution in boxes with the side…

The problem of factorising positive integer $N$ into two integer factors $x$ and $y$ is first reformulated as an optimisation problem over the positive integer domain of either of the Diophantine polynomials $Q_N(x,y)=N^2(N-xy)^2 +…

Extended variants of the recently introduced spread unary coding are described. These schemes, in which the length of the code word is fixed, allow representation of approximately n^2 numbers for n bits, rather than the n numbers of the…

We study a hybrid computational model for integer factorization in which the only non-classical resource is access to an \emph{iterated diffusion process} on a finite graph. Concretely, a \emph{diffusion step} is defined to be one…

We study processes with unstable particles in intermediate time-like states. It is shown that the amplitudes squared of such processes factor exactly in the framework of the model of unstable particles with continuous masses. Decay widths…

Initial objective of this dissertation is to study the existence of the solutions of the congruence a^x = b^y (mod p^n) and distribution of solutions (x, y) as n varies in natural numbers, where a and b are integers coprime to prime p. We…

We generalize and solve the $\roman{mod}\,q$ analogue of a problem of Littlewood and Offord, raised by Vaughan and Wooley, concerning the distribution of the $2^n$ sums of the form $\sum_{i=1}^n\varepsilon_ia_i$, where each $\varepsilon_i$…

We study the distribution of consecutive sums of two squares in arithmetic progressions. If $\{E_n\}_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ is the sequence of sums of two squares in increasing order, we show that for any modulus $q$ and any congruence classes…

We consider an ensemble of nxn real symmetric random matrices A whose entries are determined by independent identically distributed random variables that have symmetric probability distribution. Assuming that the moment 12+2delta of these…
