After being introduced by Shannon as a measure of disorder and unavailable information,
the notion of entropy has found its applications in a broad range of scientific disciplines. In …

Authentication plays a critical role in the security of quantum key distribution (QKD)
protocols. We propose using Polynomial Hash and its variants for authentication of variable …

In this paper, using properties of Ramanujan sums and of the discrete Fourier transform of
arithmetic functions, we give an explicit formula for the number of solutions of the linear …

Universal hashing, discovered by Carter and Wegman in 1979, has many important
applications in computer science. MMH∗, which was shown to be Δ-universal by Halevi and …

Congruences are ubiquitous in computer science, engineering, mathematics, and related
areas. Developing techniques for finding (the number of) solutions of congruences is an …

Many concurrency platforms offer a processor oblivious model of computation, where the
scheduler dynamically distributes work across threads. While this is convenient, it introduces …

We introduce a general class of codes which includes several well-known classes of
deletion/insertion correcting codes as special cases. For example, the Helberg code, the …

This book studies the intersection between cryptography and AI, highlighting the significant
cross-impact and potential between the two technologies. The authors first study the …

为准确测试煤岩甲烷扩散系数, 通过采用片状煤基质作为检测样品, 测试并分析了不同气体压力,
煤阶与水分对甲烷扩散系数的影响. 结果表明: 片状样品保持了煤基质特有的空间结构 …

We derive an explicit expression for the weight enumerator of a general class of codes
which includes several classes of deletion correcting codes, such as Helberg, Levenshtein …
