The ultimate consequences of this event were only slightly less far-reaching for Dr. Thomas Hodgkin than for his late colleague.

The expression of certain CD44 variants has been linked with metastasis and tumour progression. In particular, high molecular weight forms of CD44 show restricted expression in tumours and may correlate with tumour development and metastasis. In this study, we examined the expression of CD44 variants in prostate cancer cell lines: the invasive PC-3 and DU-145, low invasive LNCaP, and two non-in...

Montgomery curves and the Montgomery ladder

The Montgomery ladder is a remarkably simple method of computing scalar multiples of points on a broad class of elliptic curves. This article surveys a wide range of topics related to the Montgomery ladder, both from the historical perspective of Weierstrass curves and from the modern perspective of Edwards curves. New material includes a full proof of a complete constant-time ladder algorithm ...
