We study contractibility and its approximation for two very general classes of soft global constraints. We introduce a general formulation of decomposition-based soft constraints and provide a sufficient condition for contractibility and an approach to approximation. For edit-based soft constraints, we establish that the tightest contractible approximation cannot be expressed in edit-based term...

Finding the key of symmetric cipher takes computing common zero of polynomials, which de ne ideal and corresponding variety, usually considered over algebraically closed eld. The solution is the point of the variety over prime eld; it is de ned by a sum of the polynomial ideal and the eld ideal that de nes prime eld. Some authors use partitioning of this sum and reducing syzygies of polynomial ...

in this paper, we nd the relationships between module contractibility of abanach algebra and its ideals. we also prove that module contractibility ofa banach algebra is equivalent to module contractibility of its module uniti-zation. finally, we show that when a maximal group homomorphic image ofan inverse semigroup s with the set of idempotents e is nite, the moduleprojective tensor product ...

These notes are an extended transcript of two lectures given at the University of Ottawa during the workshop “Group actions, generalized cohomology theories, and affine algebraic geometry." The first lecture was a general introduction to A1-homotopy theory focusing on motivating the choice of definitions in the construction, together with a definition of A1-contractible spaces. The second lectu...

This paper studies the representation of a non-negative polynomial f on a non-compact semi-algebraic set K modulo its KKT (Karush-KuhnTucker) ideal. Under the assumption that f satisfies the boundary Hessian conditions (BHC) at each zero of f in K; we show that f can be represented as a sum of squares (SOS) of real polynomials modulo its KKT ideal if f ≥ 0 on K.

In this paper we study the module contractibility ofBanach algebras and characterize them in terms the conceptssplitting and admissibility of short exact sequences. Also weinvestigate module contractibility of Banach algebras with theconcept of the module diagonal.

A complete classification is obtained for all second-order linear recurring sequences uniformly distributed modulo an ideal of a Dedekind domain.

Locally extended affine Lie algebras were introduced by Morita and Yoshii in [J. Algebra 301(1) (2006), 59-81] as a natural generalization of extended affine Lie algebras. After that, various generalizations of these Lie algebras have been investigated by others. It is known that a locally extended affine Lie algebra can be recovered from its centerless core, i.e., the ideal generated by weight...
