We prove that discrete compact quantum groups (or more generally locally compact, under additional hypotheses) with coamenable dual are continuous fields over their central closed subgroups, and the same holds for free products of amalgamated a common subgroup. Along way we also show [Formula: see text]-algebras again via Fell-topology characterization text]-field continuity, recovering result ...

Continuous Auditing (CA) has been investigated over time and it is, somewhat, in practice within financial and transactional auditing as a part of continuous assurance and monitoring. Enterprise Information Systems that run their activities in the form of processes require continuous auditing of a process that invokes the action(s) specified in the policies and rules in a continuous manner. A s...

An inherently parallel algorithm is proposed that efficiently performs selection: finding the K-th largest member of a set of N members. Selection is a common component of many more complex algorithms and therefore is a widely studied problem. Not much is new in the proposed dualheap selection algorithm: the heap data structure is from J.W.J. Williams [1], the bottom-up heap construction is fro...

We consider secret computation of purchase history data among two companies of different type of business in order to identify purchase patterns without revealing customer information of each company. Among several privacy-preserving approaches, we focus on homomorphic encryption, which is public-key encryption supporting meaningful computations on encrypted data. In particular, we apply the so...
