We revisit the problem of integer factorization with number-theoretic oracles, including a well-known problem: can we factor an integer $N$ unconditionally, in deterministic polynomial time, given the value of the Euler totient $(\varphi(N)$? We show that this can be done, under certain size conditions on the prime factors of $N$. The key technique is lattice basis reduction using the LLL algor...

a toroidalization of a dominant morphism $varphi: xto y$ of algebraic varieties over a field of characteristic zero is a toroidal lifting of $varphi$ obtained by performing sequences of blow ups of nonsingular subvarieties above $x$ and $y$. we give a proof of toroidalization of locally toroidal morphisms of 3-folds.

We point out that, if quantum field renormalization is taken into account and the counterterms are evaluated at the Hubble-radius crossing time or few e-foldings after it, the predictions of slow-roll inflation for both the scalar and the tensorial power spectrum change significantly. This leads to a change in the consistency condition that relates the tensor-to-scalar amplitude ratio with spec...

Let  $left{a_alpharight}_{alphain I}$ be a bounded net in a Banach algebra $A$ and $varphi$ a nonzero multiplicative linear functional on $A$. In this paper, we deal with the problem of when $|aa_alpha-varphi(a)a_alpha|to0$ uniformly for all $a$ in weakly compact subsets of $A$. We show that Banach algebras associated to locally compact groups such  as Segal algebras and $L^1$-algebras are resp...

Cyclic contraction and relaxation of plasmodial strands of Physarum polycephalum were measured under both isotonic and isometric conditions, and their relation to changes in microfilament (MF) morphology was investigated. The contraction-relaxation rhythm of a strand segment was insignificant and irregular immediately after isolation from the mother plasmodium. It became regular half an hour la...

‎generalizing the notion of character amenability for banach‎ ‎algebras‎, ‎we study the concept of $varphi$-connes amenability of‎ ‎a dual banach algebra $mathcal{a}$ with predual $mathcal{a}_*$‎, ‎where $varphi$ is a homomorphism from $mathcal{a}$ onto $bbb c$‎ ‎that lies in $mathcal{a}_*$‎. ‎several characterizations of‎ ‎$varphi$-connes amenability are given‎. ‎we also prove that the‎ ‎follo...

We first consider a cyclic φ-contraction map on a reflexive Banach space X and provide a positive answer to a question raised by Al-Thagafi and Shahzad on the existence of best proximity points for cyclic φ-contraction maps in reflexive Banach spaces in one of their works 2009 . In the second part of the paper, we will discuss the existence of best proximity points in the framework of more gene...

the asymptotic behaviour of the sequence with general term $p_n=(varphi(1)+varphi(2)+cdots+varphi(n))/(1+2+cdots+n)$, is studied which appears in the studying of coprime integers, and an explicit bound for the difference $p_n-6/pi^2$ is found.

Meir and Keeler in 1 considered an extension of the classical Banach contraction theorem on a complete metric space. Kirk et al. in 2 extended the Banach contraction theorem for a class of mappings satisfying cyclical contractive conditions. Eldred and Veeramani in 3 introduced the following definition. Let A and B be nonempty subsets of a metric space X. A map T : A ∪ B → A ∪ B, is a cyclic co...
