Cache-Oblivious Peeling of Random Hypergraphs
The computation of a peeling order in a randomly generated hypergraph is the most time-consuming step in a number of constructions, such as perfect hashing schemes, random $r$-SAT solvers, error-correcting codes, and approximate set encodings.

A Pt‐Fe‐Sn alloy catalyst supported on activated carbon is synthesized via laser synthesis in liquid, introducing lattice distortions that enhance active site exposure and toluene desorption. The catalyst achieves a hydrogen evolution rate of 2625 mmol gPt⁻¹ min⁻¹ with 99.96% selectivity and excellent stability, offering a promising strategy for ...

ABSTRACT Introduction The popularization of blockchain‐based applications made evident a critical challenge, namely the inherent isolation of these decentralized systems, akin to the disconnected and technologically diverse local area networks of the 1970s. This lack of interoperability limits the potential for widespread adoption and innovation in the

Pottery Making in the First Oases: Comparison Between Bat and Bisya Domestic and Tower Assemblages
ABSTRACT The earliest known significant pottery production in Oman appears in the first oases of the Hajar mountains southern foothills during the Umm an‐Nar period (ca. 2700–2000 bc) of the third millennium bc. Despite the history of ceramic research in southeast Arabia, the modalities of the establishment and organisation of this craft are little ...

Abstract This study explores the practical impact of blockchain technology (BCT), which contrasts strongly with literature that has predominantly hypothesised BCT's potential to disrupt accounting practice. We interviewed 44 practitioners and academics with knowledge of BCT across 13 countries and industries.

“The Pause That Refreshes”: American Servicemen on R&R in Australia, 1967–1971
Nearly 10% of the 3 million Americans who served in Vietnam spent one week of “R&R” leave in Australia—principally in Sydney. This “friendly invasion” constitutes a substantial neglected legacy of the conflict. Across dozens of oral history interviews and memoirs, US servicemen recall with fondness their week‐long respite in a nation that was at once ...

Faster tuple lattice sieving using spherical locality-sensitive filters [PDF]
To overcome the large memory requirement of classical lattice sieving algorithms for solving hard lattice problems, Bai-Laarhoven-Stehl\'{e} [ANTS 2016] studied tuple lattice sieving, where tuples instead of pairs of lattice vectors are combined to form ...

Implicit Promises and the Timing of Defined‐Benefit Pension Plan Freezes
ABSTRACT Firms time defined‐benefit (DB) plan freezes after CEO turnovers to protect CEO retirement benefits from cost cuts affecting the wider workforce. We document a significant increase in voluntary CEO turnovers just before the freeze, without notable post‐freeze changes.
