Geological Journal, EarlyView.Petrography, thermobarometry, and pseudosection modelling reveal peak metamorphic conditions of 3–7.5 kbar and 520°C–800°C in Tonian‐Cryogenian orthogneisses of the Dom Feliciano Belt. Metamorphic field gradients of 27°C/km–39°C/km and variable exhumation mechanisms support correlation of these units as remnants of a Himalayan‐type Piratini Orogeny ...

The Sum of PRPs Is a Secure PRF [PDF]
, 2000 Given d independent pseudorandom permutations (PRPs) πi, ..., πd over {0; 1}n, it appears natural to define a pseudorandom function (PRF) by adding (or XORing) the permutation results: sumd(x) = π1(x) ⊕...⊕πd(x). This paper investigates the security of sumd and also considers a variant that only uses one single PRP over {0; 1}n.
