Timing Analysis of Leader-Based and Decentralized Byzantine Consensus Algorithms
—We compare in an analytical way two leader-based and decentralized algorithms (that is, algorithms that do not use a leader) for Byzantine consensus with strong validity. We sho...

Focused no free lunch theorems
Proofs and empirical evidence are presented which show that a subset of algorithms can have identical performance over a subset of functions, even when the subset of functions is ...

Self-Reciprocal Irreducible Pentanomials Over F2
Joseph Yucas and Gary Mullen conjectured that there is no self-reciprocal irreducible pentanomial of degree n over F2 if n is divisible by 6. In this note we prove this conjecture ...
