Condensing phenomena for systems biology, ecology and sociology present in real life different complex behaviors. Based on local interaction between agents, we present another result of the Energy-based model presented by [20]. We involve an additional condition providing the total condensing (also called consensus) of a discrete positive measure. Key words: Condensing; consensus; random move; self-organizing groups; collective intelligence; stochastic modeling. AMS Subject Classifications: 81T80; 93A30; 37M05; 68U20
Local interactions between particles of a collection causes all particles to reorganize in new positions. The purpose of this paper is to construct an energy-based model of self-organizing subgroups, which describes the behavior of singular local moves of a particle. The present paper extends the Hegselmann-Krause model on consensus dynamics, where agents simultaneously move to the barycenter of all agents in an epsilon neighborhood. The Energy-based model presented here is analyzed and simulated on finite metric space. AMS Subject Classifications:81T80; 93A30; 37M05; 68U20
We study the approximability of the following NP-complete (in their feasibility recognition forms) number theoretic optimization problems: 1. Given n numbers a1 ; : : : ; an 2 Z, find a minimum gcd set for a1 ; : : : ; an , i.e., a subset S fa1 ; : : : ; ang with minimum cardinality satisfying gcd(S) = gcd(a1 ; : : : ; an ). 2.

We address to the problem to factor a large composite number by lattice reduction algorithms. Schnorr has shown that under a reasonable number theoretic assumptions this problem can be reduced to a simultaneous diophantine approximation problem. The latter in turn can be solved by finding sufficiently many l_1--short vectors in a suitably defined lattice. Using lattice basis reduction algorithms Schnorr and Euchner applied Schnorrs reduction technique to 40--bit long integers. Their implementation needed several hours to compute a 5% fraction of the solution, i.e., 6 out of 125 congruences which are necessary to factorize the composite. In this report we describe a more efficient implementation using stronger lattice basis reduction techniques incorporating ideas of Schnorr, Hoerner and Ritter. For 60--bit long integers our algorithm yields a complete factorization in less than 3 hours.
Given a real vector alpha =(alpha1 ; : : : ; alpha d ) and a real number E > 0 a good Diophantine approximation to alpha is a number Q such that IIQ alpha mod Zk1 ", where k \Delta k1 denotes the 1-norm kxk1 := max 1id jx i j for x = (x1 ; : : : ; xd ). Lagarias [12] proved the NP-completeness of the corresponding decision problem, i.e., given a vector ff 2 Q d , a rational number " ? 0 and a number N 2 N+ , decide whether there exists a number Q with 1 Q N and kQff mod Zk1 ". We prove that, unless ...
We generalize the concept of block reduction for lattice bases from l2-norm to arbitrary norms. This extends the results of Schnorr. We give algorithms for block reduction and apply the resulting enumeration concept to solve subset sum problems. The deterministic algorithm solves all subset sum problems. For up to 66 weights it needs in average less then two hours on a HP 715/50 under HP-UX 9.05.
We present an efficient variant of LLL-reduction of lattice bases in the sense of Lenstra, Lenstra, Lov´asz [LLL82]. We organize LLL-reduction in segments of size k. Local LLL-reduction of segments is done using local coordinates of dimension 2k. Strong segment LLL-reduction yields bases of the same quality as LLL-reduction but the reduction is n-times faster for lattices of dimension n. We extend segment LLL-reduction to iterated subsegments. The resulting reduction algorithm runs in O(n3 log n) arithmetic steps for integer lattices of dimension n with basis vectors of length 2O(n), compared to O(n5) steps for LLL-reduction.
We study the following problem: given x element Rn either find a short integer relation m element Zn, so that =0 holds for the inner product <.,.>, or prove that no short integer relation exists for x. Hastad, Just Lagarias and Schnorr (1989) give a polynomial time algorithm for the problem. We present a stable variation of the HJLS--algorithm that preserves lower bounds on lambda(x) for infinitesimal changes of x. Given x \in {\RR}^n and \alpha \in \NN this algorithm finds a nearby point x' and a short integer relation m for x'. The nearby point x' is 'good' in the sense that no very short relation exists for points \bar{x} within half the x'--distance from x. On the other hand if x'=x then m is, up to a factor 2^{n/2}, a shortest integer relation for \mbox{x.} Our algorithm uses, for arbitrary real input x, at most \mbox{O(n^4(n+\log \alpha))} many arithmetical operations on real numbers. If x is rational the algorithm operates on integers having at most \mbox{O(n^5+n^3 (\log \alpha)^2 + \log (\|q x\|^2))} many bits where q is the common denominator for x.
Black box cryptanalysis applies to hash algorithms consisting of many small boxes, connected by a known graph structure, so that the boxes can be evaluated forward and backwards by given oracles. We study attacks that work for any choice of the black boxes, i.e. we scrutinize the given graph structure. For example we analyze the graph of the fast Fourier transform (FFT). We present optimal black box inversions of FFT-compression functions and black box constructions of collisions. This determines the minimal depth of FFT-compression networks for collision-resistant hashing. We propose the concept of multipermutation, which is a pair of orthogonal latin squares, as a new cryptographic primitive that generalizes the boxes of the FFT. Our examples of multipermutations are based on the operations circular rotation, bitwise xor, addition and multiplication.

Let G be a finite cyclic group with generator \alpha and with an encoding so that multiplication is computable in polynomial time. We study the security of bits of the discrete log x when given \exp_{\alpha}(x), assuming that the exponentiation function \exp_{\alpha}(x) = \alpha^x is one-way. We reduce he general problem to the case that G has odd order q. If G has odd order q the security of the least-significant bits of x and of the most significant bits of the rational number \frac{x}{q} \in [0,1) follows from the work of Peralta [P85] and Long and Wigderson [LW88]. We generalize these bits and study the security of consecutive shift bits lsb(2^{-i}x mod q) for i=k+1,...,k+j. When we restrict \exp_{\alpha} to arguments x such that some sequence of j consecutive shift bits of x is constant (i.e., not depending on x) we call it a 2^{-j}-fraction of \exp_{\alpha}. For groups of odd group order q we show that every two 2^{-j}-fractions of \exp_{\alpha} are equally one-way by a polynomial time transformation: Either they are all one-way or none of them. Our key theorem shows that arbitrary j consecutive shift bits of x are simultaneously secure when given \exp_{\alpha}(x) iff the 2^{-j}-fractions of \exp_{\alpha} are one-way. In particular this applies to the j least-significant bits of x and to the j most-significant bits of \frac{x}{q} \in [0,1). For one-way \exp_{\alpha} the individual bits of x are secure when given \exp_{\alpha}(x) by the method of Hastad, N\"aslund [HN98]. For groups of even order 2^{s}q we show that the j least-significant bits of \lfloor x/2^s\rfloor, as well as the j most-significant bits of \frac{x}{q} \in [0,1), are simultaneously secure iff the 2^{-j}-fractions of \exp_{\alpha'} are one-way for \alpha' := \alpha^{2^s}. We use and extend the models of generic algorithms of Nechaev (1994) and Shoup (1997). We determine the generic complexity of inverting fractions of \exp_{\alpha} for the case that \alpha has prime order q. As a consequence, arbitrary segments of (1-\varepsilon)\lg q consecutive shift bits of random x are for constant \varepsilon >0 simultaneously secure against generic attacks. Every generic algorithm using $t$ generic steps (group operations) for distinguishing bit strings of j consecutive shift bits of x from random bit strings has at most advantage O((\lg q) j\sqrt{t} (2^j/q)^{\frac14}).
We modify the concept of LLL-reduction of lattice bases in the sense of Lenstra, Lenstra, Lovasz [LLL82] towards a faster reduction algorithm. We organize LLL-reduction in segments of the basis. Our SLLL-bases approximate the successive minima of the lattice in nearly the same way as LLL-bases. For integer lattices of dimension n given by a basis of length 2exp(O(n)), SLLL-reduction runs in O(n.exp(5+epsilon)) bit operations for every epsilon > 0, compared to O(exp(n7+epsilon)) for the original LLL and to O(exp(n6+epsilon)) for the LLL-algorithms of Schnorr (1988) and Storjohann (1996). We present an even faster algorithm for SLLL-reduction via iterated subsegments running in O(n*exp(3)*log n) arithmetic steps.
We present a practical algorithm that given an LLL-reduced lattice basis of dimension n, runs in time O(n3(k=6)k=4+n4) and approximates the length of the shortest, non-zero lattice vector to within a factor (k=6)n=(2k). This result is based on reasonable heuristics. Compared to previous practical algorithms the new method reduces the proven approximation factor achievable in a given time to less than its fourthth root. We also present a sieve algorithm inspired by Ajtai, Kumar, Sivakumar [AKS01].
We consider Schwarz maps for triangles whose angles are rather general rational multiples of pi. Under which conditions can they have algebraic values at algebraic arguments? The answer is based mainly on considerations of complex multiplication of certain Prym varieties in Jacobians of hypergeometric curves. The paper can serve as an introduction to transcendence techniques for hypergeometric functions, but contains also new results and examples.
