Complete list of Darboux Integrable Chains of the form t1x=tx+d(t,t1)t_{1x}=t_x+d(t,t_1)

We study differential-difference equation of the form $$\frac{d}{dx}t(n+1,x)=f(t(n,x),t(n+1,x),\frac{d}{dx}t(n,x))$$ with unknown $t(n,x)$ depending on continuous and discrete variables $x$ and $n$. Equation of such kind is called Darboux integrable, if there exist two functions $F$ and $I$ of a finite number of arguments $x$, $\{t(n\pm k,x)\}_{k=-\infty}^\infty$, ${\frac{d^k}{dx^k}t(n,x)}_{k=1}^\infty$, such that $D_xF=0$ and $DI=I$, where $D_x$ is the operator of total differentiation with respect to $x$, and $D$ is the shift operator: $Dp(n)=p(n+1)$. Reformulation of Darboux integrability in terms of finiteness of two characteristic Lie algebras gives an effective tool for classification of integrable equations. The complete list of Darboux integrable equations is given in the case when the function $f$ is of the special form $f(u,v,w)=w+g(u,v)$

A Geometric Approach to Noncommutative Principal Torus Bundles

A (smooth) dynamical system with transformation group $\mathbb{T}^n$ is a triple $(A,\mathbb{T}^n,\alpha)$, consisting of a unital locally convex algebra $A$, the $n$-torus $\mathbb{T}^n$ and a group homomorphism \alpha:\mathbb{T}^n\rightarrow\Aut(A), which induces a (smooth) continuous action of $\mathbb{T}^n$ on $A$. In this paper we present a new, geometrically oriented approach to the noncommutative geometry of principal torus bundles based on such dynamical systems. Our approach is inspired by the classical setting: In fact, after recalling the definition of a trivial noncommutative principal torus bundle, we introduce a convenient (smooth) localization method for noncommutative algebras and say that a dynamical system $(A,\mathbb{T}^n,\alpha)$ is called a noncommutative principal $\mathbb{T}^n$-bundle, if localization leads to a trivial noncommutative principal $\mathbb{T}^n$-bundle. We prove that this approach extends the classical theory of principal torus bundles and present a bunch of (non-trivial) noncommutative examples.Comment: This paper is an extended version of "Smooth Localization in Noncommutative Geometry", arxiv:1108.4294v1 [math.DG], 22 Aug 2011, with an application to the noncommutative geometry of principal torus bundles.

Ideal Tightly Couple (t,m,n) Secret Sharing

As a fundamental cryptographic tool, (t,n)-threshold secret sharing ((t,n)-SS) divides a secret among n shareholders and requires at least t, (t<=n), of them to reconstruct the secret. Ideal (t,n)-SSs are most desirable in security and efficiency among basic (t,n)-SSs. However, an adversary, even without any valid share, may mount Illegal Participant (IP) attack or t/2-Private Channel Cracking (t/2-PCC) attack to obtain the secret in most (t,n)-SSs.To secure ideal (t,n)-SSs against the 2 attacks, 1) the paper introduces the notion of Ideal Tightly cOupled (t,m,n) Secret Sharing (or (t,m,n)-ITOSS ) to thwart IP attack without Verifiable SS; (t,m,n)-ITOSS binds all m, (m>=t), participants into a tightly coupled group and requires all participants to be legal shareholders before recovering the secret. 2) As an example, the paper presents a polynomial-based (t,m,n)-ITOSS scheme, in which the proposed k-round Random Number Selection (RNS) guarantees that adversaries have to crack at least symmetrical private channels among participants before obtaining the secret. Therefore, k-round RNS enhances the robustness of (t,m,n)-ITOSS against t/2-PCC attack to the utmost. 3) The paper finally presents a generalized method of converting an ideal (t,n)-SS into a (t,m,n)-ITOSS, which helps an ideal (t,n)-SS substantially improve the robustness against the above 2 attacks
