In this paper, we present an efficient attack to the multivariate Quadratic Quasigroups (MQQ) cryptosystem. Our cryptanalysis breaks MQQ cryptosystems by solving systems of multivariate quadratic polynomial equations using a modified version of the MutantXL algorithm. We present experimental results comparing the behavior of our implementation of MutantXL to Magma's implementation of F_4 on MQQ systems (\ge 135 bit). Based on our results we show that the MutantXL implementation solves with much less memory than Magma's implementation of F_4 algorithm.

We prove an abstract criterion stating resolvent convergence in the case of operators acting in different Hilbert spaces. This result is then applied to the case of Laplacians on a family X of branched quantum waveguides. Combining it with an exterior complex scaling we show, in particular, that the resonances on X approximate those of the Laplacian with free boundary conditions on X0, the skeleton graph of X.
