How much can randomness help computation? Motivated by this general question and by volume computation, one of the few instances where randomness provably helps, we analyze a noti...
— This paper presents a method for a planar rigid body consisting of multiple convex bodies to explore an unknown planar workspace, i.e., an unknown configuration space diffeomo...
Pairwise key establishment is a fundamental service provided in secure sensor networks. However, due to resource constraints, establishing pairwise keys is not a trivial task. Rec...

This paper is devoted to the study of the weights of binary irreducible cyclic codes. We start from McEliece’s interpretation of these weights by means of Gauss sums. Firstly, a ...
