Many complicated advances in research mathematics are spurred by a desire to understand some of the simplest questions about numbers. How are prime numbers distributed in the integers? Are there ...
In this paper we determine the quadratic points on the modular curves 𝑋₀(𝑁), where the curve is non-hyperelliptic, the genus is 3, 4, or 5, and the Mordell–Weil group of 𝐽₀(𝑁) is finite. The ...
An international group of mathematicians at MIT and other institutions has released a new online resource that provides detailed maps of previously uncharted mathematical terrain. The "L-functions and ...
Dr Jarvis works in the area of algebraic number theory, an area which uses techniques from algebra, algebraic geometry and classical number theory, amongst others. In particular, he studies the ...
When it comes to public key cryptography, most systems today are still stuck in the 1970s. On December 14, 1977, two events occurred that would change the world: Paramount Pictures released Saturday ...
Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) has emerged as a favoured approach in modern cryptography, notably due to its ability to deliver robust security with relatively small key sizes. Extensive hardware ...
Author Nick Sullivan worked for six years at Apple on many of its most important cryptography efforts before recently joining CloudFlare, where he is a systems engineer. He has a degree in mathematics ...
Editor's note: See the original article on PurpleAlientPlanet. Some of my research is focused on the implementation issues of elliptic curve cryptography on embedded systems. Since I often have to ...
