In this note we construct strange attractors in a class of skew product dynamical systems. A dynamical system of the class is a bundle map of a trivial bundle whose base is a compact metric space and the fiber is the non-negative half real line. The map on the base is a homeomorphism preserving an ergodic measure. The fiber maps either are strictly monotone and strictly concave or collapse at z...

In this paper, we describe linear maps between complex Banach algebras that preserve products equal to fixed elements. This generalizes some important special cases where the elements are zero or identity element. First show if such map preserves a finite-rank operator, then it must also product. several instances, is enough product preserving be scalar multiple of an algebra homomorphism. Seco...

Privacy-preserving machine learning enables the training of models on decentralized datasets without need to reveal data, both horizontal and vertically partitioned data. However, it relies specialized techniques algorithms perform necessary computations. The privacy preserving scalar product protocol, which dot vectors revealing them, is one popular example for its versatility. Unfortunately, ...
