Abstract: The Hamming quasi-cyclic (HQC) code-based encryption scheme is one of the fourth-round algorithms selected by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) postquantum ...

Seasonal coronaviruses (OC43, 229E, NL63, and HKU1) are endemic to the human population, regularly infecting and reinfecting humans while typically causing asymptomatic to mild respiratory infections.

Last summer in Barcelona, Joachim Kock floated the idea that there might be a connection between two invariants of graphs: the Tutte polynomial and the magnitude function. Here I’ll explain what these ...

A dynamical theory for the evolution of the genetic code is presented, which accounts for its universality and optimality. The central concept is that a variety of collective, but non-Darwinian, ...

Most species maintain abundant genetic variation and experience a range of environmental conditions, yet phenotypic variation is low. That is, development is robust to changes in genotype and ...
