This paper provides empirical evidence for the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjectures for modular Jacobians of genus 2 curves. The second of theseconjectures relates six quantities associated to a Jacobian over the rationalnumbers. One of these six quantities is the size of the Shafarevich-Tate group.Unable to compute that, we computed the five other quantities and solved for...

An autonomous vehicle can navigate by measuring the light intensity in a known environment, using a prediction and correction cycle. This navigation method is not trivial, so I developed, implemented and tested two different navigation algorithms. The simple navigation function works well, except at some locations which depend on te light illumination function. The advanced algorithm is slower,...
