A novel method for computation of the discrete Fourier transform over characteristic two finite field of even extension degree
A novel method for computation of the discrete Fourier transform over a
finite field with reduced multiplicative complexity is described. If the number
of multiplications is to be minimized, then the novel method for the finite
field of even extension degree is the best known method of the discrete Fourier
transform computation. A constructive method of constructing for a cyclic
convolution over a finite field is introduced.Comment: 35 pages. Submitted to IEEE Transactions on Information Theor
Algebraic Signal Processing Theory: Cooley-Tukey Type Algorithms for Polynomial Transforms Based on Induction
A polynomial transform is the multiplication of an input vector x\in\C^n by
a matrix \PT_{b,\alpha}\in\C^{n\times n}, whose -th element is
defined as for polynomials p_\ell(x)\in\C[x] from a list
and sample points \alpha_k\in\C from a list
. Such transforms find applications in
the areas of signal processing, data compression, and function interpolation.
Important examples include the discrete Fourier and cosine transforms. In this
paper we introduce a novel technique to derive fast algorithms for polynomial
transforms. The technique uses the relationship between polynomial transforms
and the representation theory of polynomial algebras. Specifically, we derive
algorithms by decomposing the regular modules of these algebras as a stepwise
induction. As an application, we derive novel general-radix
algorithms for the discrete Fourier transform and the discrete cosine transform
of type 4.Comment: 19 pages. Submitted to SIAM Journal on Matrix Analysis and

Counting points on hyperelliptic curves with explicit real multiplication in arbitrary genus
We present a probabilistic Las Vegas algorithm for computing the local zeta
function of a genus- hyperelliptic curve defined over with
explicit real multiplication (RM) by an order in a degree-
totally real number field.
It is based on the approaches by Schoof and Pila in a more favorable case
where we can split the -torsion into kernels of endomorphisms, as
introduced by Gaudry, Kohel, and Smith in genus 2. To deal with these kernels
in any genus, we adapt a technique that the author, Gaudry, and Spaenlehauer
introduced to model the -torsion by structured polynomial systems.
Applying this technique to the kernels, the systems we obtain are much smaller
and so is the complexity of solving them.
Our main result is that there exists a constant such that, for any
fixed , this algorithm has expected time and space complexity as grows and the characteristic is large enough. We prove that
and we also conjecture that the result still holds for .Comment: To appear in Journal of Complexity. arXiv admin note: text overlap

Faster all-pairs shortest paths via circuit complexity
We present a new randomized method for computing the min-plus product
(a.k.a., tropical product) of two matrices, yielding a faster
algorithm for solving the all-pairs shortest path problem (APSP) in dense
-node directed graphs with arbitrary edge weights. On the real RAM, where
additions and comparisons of reals are unit cost (but all other operations have
typical logarithmic cost), the algorithm runs in time
and is correct with high probability.
On the word RAM, the algorithm runs in time for edge weights in . Prior algorithms used either time for
various , or time for various
and .
The new algorithm applies a tool from circuit complexity, namely the
Razborov-Smolensky polynomials for approximately representing
circuits, to efficiently reduce a matrix product over the algebra to
a relatively small number of rectangular matrix products over ,
each of which are computable using a particularly efficient method due to
Coppersmith. We also give a deterministic version of the algorithm running in
time for some , which utilizes the
Yao-Beigel-Tarui translation of circuits into "nice" depth-two
circuits.Comment: 24 pages. Updated version now has slightly faster running time. To

dissertationAbstraction plays an important role in digital design, analysis, and verification, as it allows for the refinement of functions through different levels of conceptualization. This dissertation introduces a new method to compute a symbolic, canonical, word-level abstraction of the function implemented by a combinational logic circuit. This abstraction provides a representation of the function as a polynomial Z = F(A) over the Galois field F2k , expressed over the k-bit input to the circuit, A. This representation is easily utilized for formal verification (equivalence checking) of combinational circuits. The approach to abstraction is based upon concepts from commutative algebra and algebraic geometry, notably the Grobner basis theory. It is shown that the polynomial F(A) can be derived by computing a Grobner basis of the polynomials corresponding to the circuit, using a specific elimination term order based on the circuits topology. However, computing Grobner bases using elimination term orders is infeasible for large circuits. To overcome these limitations, this work introduces an efficient symbolic computation to derive the word-level polynomial. The presented algorithms exploit i) the structure of the circuit, ii) the properties of Grobner bases, iii) characteristics of Galois fields F2k , and iv) modern algorithms from symbolic computation. A custom abstraction tool is designed to efficiently implement the abstraction procedure. While the concept is applicable to any arbitrary combinational logic circuit, it is particularly powerful in verification and equivalence checking of hierarchical, custom designed and structurally dissimilar Galois field arithmetic circuits. In most applications, the field size and the datapath size k in the circuits is very large, up to 1024 bits. The proposed abstraction procedure can exploit the hierarchy of the given Galois field arithmetic circuits. Our experiments show that, using this approach, our tool can abstract and verify Galois field arithmetic circuits up to 1024 bits in size. Contemporary techniques fail to verify these types of circuits beyond 163 bits and cannot abstract a canonical representation beyond 32 bits
