This paper introduces a new efficient algorithm, called MXL_3, for computing Gröbner bases of zero-dimensional ideals. The MXL_3 is based on XL algorithm, mutant strategy, and a new sufficient condition for a set of polynomials to be a Gröbner basis. We present experimental results comparing the behavior of MXL_3 to F_4 on HFE and random generated instances of the MQ problem. In both cases the first implementation of the MXL_3 algorithm succeeds faster and uses less memory than Magma’s implementation of F_4.

We show that if the graph of an analytic function in the unit disk$D$is not complete pluripolar in$C$^{2}then the projection of its pluripolar hull contains a fine neighborhood of a point $p\in\partial\mathbf{D}$ . Moreover the projection of the pluripolar hull is always finely open. On the other hand we show that if an analytic function$f$in$D$extends to a function ℱ which is defined on a fine neighborhood of a point $p\in\partial\mathbf{D}$ and is finely analytic at$p$then the pluripolar hull of the graph of$f$contains the graph of ℱ over a smaller fine neighborhood of$p$. We give several examples of functions with this property of fine analytic continuation. As a corollary we obtain new classes of analytic functions in the disk which have non-trivial pluripolar hulls, among them$C$^{∞}functions on the closed unit disk which are nowhere analytically extendible and have infinitely-sheeted pluripolar hulls. Previous examples of functions with non-trivial pluripolar hull of the graph have fine analytic continuation.

We study the asymptotic equidistribution of points with discrete energy close to Robin’s constant of a compact set in the plane. Our main tools are the energy estimates from potential theory. We also consider the quantitative aspects of this equidistribution. Applications include estimates of growth for the Fekete and Leja polynomials associated with large classes of compact sets, convergence rates of the discrete energy approximations to Robin’s constant, and problems on the means of zeros of polynomials with integer coefficients.

Quantum-disordering a discrete-symmetry breaking state by condensing domain-walls can lead to a trivial symmetric insulator state. In this work, we show that if we bind a 1D representation of the symmetry (such as a charge) to the intersection point of several domain walls, condensing such modified domain-walls can lead to a non-trivial symmetry-protected topological (SPT) state. This result is obtained by showing that the modified domain-wall condensed state has a non-trivial SPT invariant -- the symmetry-twist dependent partition function. We propose two different kinds of field theories that can describe the above mentioned SPT states. The first one is a Ginzburg-Landau-type non-linear sigma model theory, but with an additional multi-kink domain-wall topological term. Such theory has an anomalous Uk(1) symmetry but an anomaly-free ZkN symmetry. The second one is a gauge theory, which is beyond Abelian Chern-Simons/BF gauge theories. We argue that the two field theories are equivalent at low energies. After coupling to the symmetry twists, both theories produce the desired SPT invariant.
