We present a new method to estimate the intrinsic dimensionality of a submanifold M in Rd from random samples. The method is based on the convergence rates of a certain U-statisti...
Pollard's rho method is a randomized algorithm for computing discrete logarithms. It works by defining a pseudo-random sequence and then detecting a match in the sequence. Ma...
The paper is devoted to a brief review of a mathematical theory for the branching variance-reduction technique. The branching technique is an extension of von Neumann’s splittin...
