Complexity theory has a profound influence on the field of cryptology. The time complexity of breaking a cipher system must be significant enough to thwart any adversary from succeeding. However, with the emergence of quantum computers an adversary may have no difficulty in breaking known cipher systems. If quantum computers would exist today new mechanisms for security would need to be built. ...

The classical unique continuation theorem, which originates in the work of Carleman, in its simplest form is the following: Proposition: Assume that ∆u = V u in {|x| < 10}, with |u| ≤ C 0 and ||V || L ∞ ≤ M. If |u(x)| ≤ C N |x| N , for all N ≥ 0, then u ≡ 0. In order to establish this Proposition, Carleman developed a method, the " method of Carleman estimates " , which still permeates the subj...
