A modified layered-step interior-point algorithm for linear programming
The layered-step interior-point algorithm was introduced by Vavasis and Ye. The algorithm accelerates the path following interior-point algorithm and its arithmetic complexity dep...

An algorithm for evaluation of discrete logarithms in some nonprime finite fields
In this paper we propose an algorithm for evaluation of logarithms in the finite fields Fpn , where the number pn − 1 has a small primitive factor r. The heuristic estimate of ...

Remarks on the Schoof-Elkies-Atkin algorithm
Abstract. Schoof’s algorithm computes the number m of points on an elliptic curve E defined over a finite field Fq. Schoof determines m modulo small primes using the character...

Detecting perfect powers in essentially linear time
This paper (1) gives complete details of an algorithm to compute approximate kth roots; (2) uses this in an algorithm that, given an integer n > 1, either writes n as a perfect ...

Statistical Mechanics of Online Learning of Drifting Concepts: A Variational Approach
We review the application of statistical mechanics methods to the study of online learning of a drifting concept in the limit of large systems. The model where a feed-forward netwo...

On Restricted-Focus-of-Attention Learnability of Boolean Functions
In the k-Restricted-Focus-of-Attention (k-RFA) model, only k of the n attributes of each example are revealed to the learner, although the set of visible attributes in each example...

The volume algorithm revisited: relation with bundle methods
We revise the Volume Algorithm (VA) for linear programming and relate it to bundle methods. When first introduced, VA was presented as a subgradient-like method for solving the ori...

Some baby-step giant-step algorithms for the low hamming weight discrete logarithm problem
In this paper, we present several baby-step giant-step algorithms for the low hamming weight discrete logarithm problem. In this version of the discrete log problem, we are require...
