Residue Number Systems require the selection of ring moduli whose product is greater than the predicted dynamic range of the computation being performed. The restriction that the moduli be relatively prime usually limits the set of available moduli and hence the maximum dynamic range. This is particularly the case when small moduli are to be considered for efficient hardware implementation. Sev...

This paper studies explicit and theoretical bounds for several interesting quantities in number theory, conditionally on the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis. Specifically, we improve the existing explicit bounds for the least quadratic non-residue and the least prime in an arithmetic progression. We also refine the classical conditional bounds of Littlewood for L-functions at s = 1. In particula...

The pure spinor formalism for the superstring has recently been used to compute massless four-point two-loop amplitudes in a manifestly super-Poincaré covariant manner. In this paper, we show that when all four external states are Neveu-Schwarz, the two-loop amplitude coincides with the RNS result.

Abstract Recently, Lovejoy introduced the construct of overpartition pairs which are a natural generalization of overpartitions. Here we generalize that idea to overpartition ktuples and prove several congruences related to them. We denote the number of overpartition k-tuples of a positive integer n by pk(n) and prove, for example, that for all n ≥ 0, pt−1(tn + r) ≡ 0 (mod t) where t is prime a...

Abstract. We prove two related concentration inequalities concerning the number of rational points of hyperelliptic curves over subsets of a finite field. In particular, we investigate the probability of a large discrepancy between the numbers of quadratic residues and non-residues in the image of such subsets over uniformly random hyperelliptic curves of given degrees. We find a constant proba...

In this paper, we introduce a new definitions of the Gray weight and the Gray map for linear codes over Z9+uZ9 with u 2 = u. Some results on self-dual codes over this ring are investigated. Further, the structural properties of quadratic residue codes are also considered. Two self-dual codes with parameters [22, 11, 5] and [24, 12, 9] over Z9 are obtained.

In accordance with the maximum residue limit of 100 micrograms kg-1 established by EU legislation, a simple and sensitive high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method was developed for the measurement of tylosin residues in pig tissues (fat, kidney, liver and muscle). Tylosin, a macrolide antibiotic, is extracted with water-methanol and cleaned-up by solid-phase extraction (SPE) on cat...

Tritiated antibiotic tylosin was prepared by aqueous exchange, purified, then stabilized under phosphate form. After oral administration to rats, the balance study showed the following distribution: urine 10%, feces 46%. Urinary and fecal metabolites were identified as tylosin and desmycosin; 65 % of the urinary radioactivity was tritiated water. The elimination is biphasic. 3H-Tissue accumulat...
