We propose and analyze a multivariate encryption scheme that uses odd characteristic and an embedding in its construction. This system has a very simple core map F(X) = X^2, allowing for efficient decryption. We also discuss ways to make this decryption faster with specific parameter choices. We give heuristic arguments along with experimental data to show that this scheme resists all known attacks.

We consider the Laplacian in curved tubes of arbitrary crosssection rotating together with the Frenet frame along curves in Euclidean spaces of arbitrary dimension, subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions on the cylindrical surface and Neumann conditions at the ends of the tube. We prove that the spectral threshold of the Laplacian is estimated from below by the lowest eigenvalue of the Dirichlet Laplacian in a torus determined by the geometry of the tube.
