Fractal (Mandelbrot and Julia) Zero-Knowledge Proof of Identity
Journal of Computer Science 4 (5): 408-414, 2008 ISSN 1549-3636 © 2008 Science Publications Fractal (Mandelbrot and Julia) Zero-Knowledge Proof of Identity Mohammad Ahmad Alia and Azman Bin Samsudin School of Computer Sciences, University Sains Malaysia, 11800 Penang, Malaysia Abstract: We proposed a new zero-knowledge proof of identity protocol based on Mandelbrot and Julia Fractal sets. The Fractal based zero-knowledge protocol was possible because of the intrinsic connection between the Mandelbrot and Julia Fractal sets. In the proposed protocol, the private key was used as an input parameter for Mandelbrot Fractal function to generate the corresponding public key. Julia Fractal function was then used to calculate the verified value based on the existing private key and the received public key. The proposed protocol was designed to be resistant against attacks. Fractal based zero-knowledge protocol was an attractive alternative to the traditional number theory zero-knowledge protocol. Key words: Zero-knowledge, cryptography, fractal, mandelbrot fractal set and julia fractal set INTRODUCTION Zero-knowledge proof of identity system is a cryptographic protocol between two parties. Whereby, the first party wants to prove that he/she has the identity (secret word) to the second party, without revealing anything about his/her secret to the second party. Following are the three main properties of zero- knowledge proof of identity[1]: Completeness: The honest prover convinces the honest verifier that the secret statement is true. Soundness: Cheating prover can’t convince the honest verifier that a statement is true (if the statement is really false). Fig. 1: Zero-knowledge cave Zero-knowledge: Cheating verifier can’t get anything Zero-knowledge cave: Zero-Knowledge Cave is a other than prover’s public data sent from the honest well-known scenario used to describe the idea of zero- prover. -

Condenser Capacity and Hyperbolic Perimeter
CONDENSER CAPACITY AND HYPERBOLIC PERIMETER MOHAMED M. S. NASSER, OONA RAINIO, AND MATTI VUORINEN Abstract. We apply domain functionals to study the conformal capacity of condensers (G; E) where G is a simply connected domain in the complex plane and E is a compact subset of G. Due to conformal invariance, our main tools are the hyperbolic geometry and functionals such as the hyperbolic perimeter of E. Novel computational algorithms based on implementations of the fast multipole method are combined with analytic techniques. Computational experiments are used throughout to, for instance, demonstrate sharpness of established inequalities. In the case of model problems with known analytic solutions, very high precision of computation is observed. 1. Introduction A condenser is a pair (G; E), where G ⊂ Rn is a domain and E is a compact non-empty subset of G. The conformal capacity of this condenser is defined as [14, 17, 20] Z (1.1) cap(G; E) = inf jrujndm; u2A G 1 where A is the class of C0 (G) functions u : G ! [0; 1) with u(x) ≥ 1 for all x 2 E and dm is the n-dimensional Lebesgue measure. The conformal capacity of a condenser is one of the key notions in potential theory of elliptic partial differential equations [20, 29] and it has numerous applications to geometric function theory, both in the plane and in higher dimensions, [10, 14, 15, 17]. The isoperimetric problem is to determine a plane figure of the largest possible area whose boundary has a specified length, or, perimeter. Constrained extremal problems of this type, where the constraints involve geometric or physical quantities, have been studied in several thousands of papers, see e.g. -

Harmonic and Complex Analysis and Its Applications
Trends in Mathematics Alexander Vasil’ev Editor Harmonic and Complex Analysis and its Applications Trends in Mathematics Trends in Mathematics is a series devoted to the publication of volumes arising from conferences and lecture series focusing on a particular topic from any area of mathematics. Its aim is to make current developments available to the community as rapidly as possible without compromise to quality and to archive these for reference. Proposals for volumes can be submitted using the Online Book Project Submission Form at our website www.birkhauser-science.com. Material submitted for publication must be screened and prepared as follows: All contributions should undergo a reviewing process similar to that carried out by journals and be checked for correct use of language which, as a rule, is English. Articles without proofs, or which do not contain any significantly new results, should be rejected. High quality survey papers, however, are welcome. We expect the organizers to deliver manuscripts in a form that is essentially ready for direct reproduction. Any version of TEX is acceptable, but the entire collection of files must be in one particular dialect of TEX and unified according to simple instructions available from Birkhäuser. Furthermore, in order to guarantee the timely appearance of the proceedings it is essential that the final version of the entire material be submitted no later than one year after the conference.

Writing the History of Dynamical Systems and Chaos

In this paper, we flesh out the historiographical tensions arising from these confrontations: longue-duree´ history and revolution; abstract mathematics and the use of mathematical techniques in various other domains. After reviewing the historiography of dynamical systems theory from Poincar´e to the 1960s, we highlight the pioneering work of a few individuals (Steve Smale, Edward Lorenz, David Ruelle). We then go on to discuss the nature of the chaos phenomenon, which, we argue, was a conceptual reconfiguration as -

the frontiers collection the frontiers collection Series Editors: A.C. Elitzur M.P. Silverman J. Tuszynski R. Vaas H.D. Zeh The books in this collection are devoted to challenging and open problems at the forefront of modern science, including related philosophical debates. In contrast to typical research monographs, however, they strive to present their topics in a manner accessible also to scientifically literate non-specialists wishing to gain insight into the deeper implications and fascinating questions involved. Taken as a whole, the series reflects the need for a fundamental and interdisciplinary approach to modern science. Furthermore, it is intended to encourage active scientists in all areas to ponder over important and perhaps controversial issues beyond their own speciality. Extending from quantum physics and relativity to entropy, consciousness and complex systems – the Frontiers Collection will inspire readers to push back the frontiers of their own knowledge.

A Fairly Complete History and Tour of Aynho Village – Updated January 2017 Aynho Is a Two-Part Name
A Fairly Complete History and Tour of Aynho Village – updated January 2017 Aynho is a two-part name - ‘Ayn’ is either a corruption of a Saxon personal name, or more likely the Saxon word for a spring or stream. The ‘Hoh’ is a Saxon word for a promontory/projecting ridge of land standing on a plain as Aynho does. The earliest mention (in the Domesday Book) of an owner of the manor of Aynho is Asgar - a Danish thane (knight). He was standard bearer for Edward the Confessor who reigned from 1042 to 1066. (Edward was born at Islip about fifteen miles south east of Aynho, so he probably knew Asgar). The entry showed 3¼ hides (about 400 acres altogether), land for 8 ploughs, a mill and 20 acres of meadow. Why was Aynho so relatively important in the mid-ten hundreds? Probably because of its location high up overlooking the whole Cherwell valley. There were very few significant houses in existence within a radius of twenty miles at that time, and it is believed that Aynho had a substantial wooden Saxon manor house then. For example Oxford Castle was not built until 1073, Banbury Castle 1135, Broughton Castle 1300, Rousham House 1635 and Upton House 1695. The first proper Oxford College, University College, wasn’t founded until1249. Apart from Aynho north of Oxford only Sulgrave Manor is recorded as having an Anglo-Saxon Manor House around the late 9th century. William the Conqueror gave the village to one of his barons, Geoffrey de Mandeville, for helping him win the Battle of Hastings in 1066. -

Nevanlinna Theory of the Askey-Wilson Divided Difference
NEVANLINNA THEORY OF THE ASKEY-WILSON DIVIDED DIFFERENCE OPERATOR YIK-MAN CHIANG AND SHAO-JI FENG Abstract. This paper establishes a version of Nevanlinna theory based on Askey-Wilson divided difference operator for meromorphic functions of finite logarithmic order in the complex plane C. A second main theorem that we have derived allows us to define an Askey-Wilson type Nevanlinna deficiency which gives a new interpretation that one should regard many important infinite products arising from the study of basic hypergeometric series as zero/pole- scarce. That is, their zeros/poles are indeed deficient in the sense of difference Nevanlinna theory. A natural consequence is a version of Askey-Wilosn type Picard theorem. We also give an alternative and self-contained characterisation of the kernel functions of the Askey-Wilson operator. In addition we have established a version of unicity theorem in the sense of Askey-Wilson. This paper concludes with an application to difference equations generalising the Askey-Wilson second-order divided difference equation. Contents 1. Introduction 2 2.
