The discrete logarithm problem over prime fields: the safe prime case. The Smart attack, non-canonical lifts and logarithmic derivatives
In this brief note we connect the discrete logarithm problem over prime
fields in the safe prime case to the logarithmic derivative.Comment: 8 page
Enhancement of Self Concept Using Life Skills Approach
Psychology is concerned with the behaviour and experience of human beings. Human have always, been fascinated by the mind. Yet, the disciplines of psychology and psychiatry only started studying the mind or cognition about 100 years ago. The universe of t he mind is still a dark, vast, unexplored place. It mystifies us. Yet, it is a religion of great promise. If we could learn to develop our values, master basic psychological principles, and increase our self- awareness and motivation, great strides might be made in self-control or self- actualization
Survey of vector-like fermion extensions of the Standard Model and their phenomenological implications
With the renewed interest in vector-like fermion extensions of the Standard
Model, we present here a study of multiple vector-like theories and their
phenomenological implications. Our focus is mostly on minimal flavor conserving
theories that couple the vector-like fermions to the SM gauge fields and mix
only weakly with SM fermions so as to avoid flavor problems. We present
calculations for precision electroweak and vector-like state decays, which are
needed to investigate compatibility with currently known data. We investigate
the impact of vector-like fermions on Higgs boson production and decay,
including loop contributions, in a wide variety of vector-like extensions and
their parameter spaces.Comment: 43 pages, 17 figures; v2: text modified to improve readability,

Chiral Couplings of W' and Top Quark Polarization at the LHC
If a TeV-scale charged gauge boson (W') is discovered at the Large Hadron
Collider (LHC), it will become imperative to determine its chiral couplings to
standard model (SM) fermions in order to learn about the underlying theory
containing the W'. We describe the reconstruction of the t, b decay mode of the
W' at the LHC, and identify various kinematic observables such as the angular
distributions of the top quark and the lepton resulting from top decay that can
be used to disentangle the chiral couplings of the W' to SM fermions. We
demonstrate by presenting analytical expressions, numerical simulations, as
well as intuitive illustrations for these observables at the LHC that among the
SM fermions, the polarized top quark can most directly probe the chirality of
such couplings.Comment: 35 pages, 12 Figure
TWO NEW SPECIES OF POACEAE FROM INDIA
Two new species of Poaceae namely, Erayrostis santapaui K. G. Bhat & C. R. Nagendran and Chrysopogon pseitdozeylanicus K. G. Bhat & C. R. Nagendran have been described from materials collected by the senior author from Coorg- and South Kanara Districts of Karnataka State, India
On the importance of ship-bottom fouling by marine organisms: a techno-economic survey
A high attention has been paid for constant research on the preservation of materials in the marine environment. This includes all phases of design, development, applied engineering and economics which may influence the construction and operation of ships and underwater installations
