Strings And Colorings Of Topological Coding Towards Asymmetric Topology Cryptography
We, for anti-quantum computing, will discuss various number-based strings,
such as number-based super-strings, parameterized strings, set-based strings,
graph-based strings, integer-partitioned and integer-decomposed strings,
Hanzi-based strings, as well as algebraic operations based on number-based
strings. Moreover, we introduce number-based string-colorings, magic-constraint
colorings, and vector-colorings and set-colorings related with strings. For the
technique of encrypting the entire network at once, we propose graphic lattices
related with number-based strings, Hanzi-graphic lattices, string groups,
all-tree-graphic lattices. We study some topics of asymmetric topology
cryptography, such as topological signatures, Key-pair graphs, Key-pair
strings, one-encryption one-time and self-certification algorithms. Part of
topological techniques and algorithms introduced here are closely related with
NP-complete problems or NP-hard problems.Comment: Asymmetric topology encryption is a new topic of topological coding
towards the certificateless public key cryptograph
Characterization of a Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium lineage with rough colony morphology and multidrug resistance
Abstract Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) is a major cause of salmonellosis, and the emergence of multidrug-resistant pathovariants has become a growing concern. Here, we investigate a distinct rough colony variant exhibiting a strong biofilm-forming ability isolated in China. Whole-genome sequencing on 2,212 Chinese isolates and 1,739 publicly available genomes reveals the population structure and evolutionary history of the rough colony variants. Characterized by macro, red, dry, and rough (mrdar) colonies, these variants demonstrate enhanced biofilm formation at 28 °C and 37 °C compared to typical rdar colonies. The mrdar variants exhibit extensive multidrug resistance, with significantly higher resistance to at least five classes of antimicrobial agents compared to non-mrdar variants. This resistance is primarily conferred by an IncHI2 plasmid harboring 19 antimicrobial resistance genes. Phylogenomic analysis divides the global collections into six lineages. The majority of mrdar variants belong to sublineage L6.5, which originated from Chinese smooth colony strains and possibly emerged circa 1977. Among the mrdar variants, upregulation of the csgDEFG operons is observed, probably due to a distinct point mutation (−44G > T) in the csgD gene promoter. Pangenome and genome-wide association analyses identify 87 specific accessory genes and 72 distinct single nucleotide polymorphisms associated with the mrdar morphotype
