Physical One‐Way Functions for Decentralized Consensus Via Proof of Physical Work [PDF]
Decentralized consensus on the state of the Bitcoin blockchain is ensured by proof of work. It relies on digital one‐way functions and is associated with an enormous environmental impact. This paper conceptualizes a physical one‐way function that aims to

Subjective Assessment of Physical and Mental Fatigue Does Not Predict Objective Decline of Cognitive Functions After Ultra‐Endurance Race (Veloreality) [PDF]
Although acute exercise can have positive effects on individual's cognitive functioning, performing ultra‐endurance race can diminish these benefits. No previous studies have examined if cognitive decline can be estimated by subjective perception; thus ...

2D physically unclonable functions of the arbiter type
Objectives. The problem of constructing a new class of physically unclonable functions of the arbiter type (APUF) is being solved, based on the difference in delay times for the inputs of numerous modifications of the base element, due to both an ...

Physically unclonable functions with controlled propagation delay
O b j e c t i v e s. The problem of constructing a new class of physically uncloneable functions (PUF) based on controlling the signal propagation delay through the elements lying on the path of its propagation is being solved.

Noncoherent Massive MIMO With Embedded One-Way Function Physical Layer Security
We propose a novel physical layer security scheme that exploits an optimization method as a one-way function. The proposed scheme builds on nonsquare differential multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO), which is capable of noncoherent detection even in massive MIMO scenarios and thus resilient against risky pilot insertion and pilot contamination ...

Two Quantum Proxy Blind Signature Schemes Based on Controlled Quantum Teleportation
We present a scheme for teleporting an unknown, two-particle entangled state with a message from a sender (Alice) to a receiver (Bob) via a six-particle entangled channel.

Physical One-Way Functions [PDF]
Modern cryptographic practice rests on the use of one-way functions, which are easy to evaluate but difficult to invert. Unfortunately, commonly used one-way functions are either based on unproven conjectures or have known vulnerabilities. We show that instead of relying on number theory, the mesoscopic physics of coherent transport through a ...

Measuring Process via Sampling of Signals, and Functions with Attributes [PDF]
In this paper, it has been shown that any measuring process can be modeled as a process of sampling of signals. Also, a notion of a special kind of functions, called here functions with attributes, has been introduced.

Functions of a Monograph as a Document in Scholarly Communications
The article considers functions of a monograph within the scholarly communication. They are studied via document that may have perceptive, nominative, informative, signative, sintactive, temporal, pragmatic and material (physical) elements.
