This is sort-of a reply to the top answer given to this question, which states that whereas RSA-PSS, defined in terms of $H(r \ || \ M)$, only relies on target collision resistance and is secure even if MD5 is used (or at least was at the time of writing that answer), RSASSA-PSS, defined in terms...

Is it known if there are any examples of a finitely generated group $G$ such that: $G$ has a finite index subgroup $H$ which is free-by-cyclic $G$ itself is not free-by-cyclic $G$ is torsion-free Since subgroups of free-by-cyclic groups are free-by-cyclic, one may strengthen (1) and ask that...

I have 1024 analogue signals coming in. I eventually need to measure the analogue signal (approx 100Hz) from each source.

Many introductions to complex numbers begin with the question "What are the roots of $x^2 + 1 = 0$?" This function does not have real roots, but does have complex roots. Are there functions which, in a similar vein, do not have complex roots but do have roots in the quaternions?

In 3B1B's video on the paradoxes of derivatives, he mentions that the definition “instantaneous rate of change” is nonsense.

In my textbook, the autocovariance of the AR(1) model is derived as such: $$Y_t=\phi Y_{t-1}+e_t$$ After multiplying both sides by $Y_{t-k}(k=1,2,...)$ and take expected values, you get: $$E(Y_{t-k}Y_t)=\phi E(Y_{t-k}Y_{t-1})+E(e_tY_{t-k})$$ which implies that $$\gamma_k=\phi\gamma_{k-1}+E(e_tY_{...

It is well known that there is a prime number between $n$ and $2n$ for all $n$. I decided to go deeper: is there a lower bound on the number of primes between $n$ and $2n$ for "large enough" $n$?

I have a lot of confusion around the concept of Entropy. If we know a system's entire microstate, the number of ways it can exist in that microstate is 1. So, if we fully define our system, it will have zero entropy. (By multiplicity definition, and by Gibbs entropy as well). What do we mean exac...
