Purity in categories of sheaves [PDF]
We consider categorical and geometric purity for sheaves of modules over a scheme satisfying some mild conditions, both for the category of all sheaves and for the category of quasicoherent sheaves.

Arithmetic hash functions defined over prime fields have been actively developed and used in verifiable computation (VC) protocols. Among those, ellipticcurve- based SNARKs require large (256-bit and higher) primes. Such hash functions are notably slow,

Sheaves and Duality in the Two-Vertex Graph Riemann-Roch Theorem
For each graph on two vertices, and each divisor on the graph in the sense of Baker-Norine, we describe a sheaf of vector spaces on a finite category whose zeroth Betti number is the Baker-Norine "Graph Riemann-Roch" rank of the divisor plus one.
