We will introduce a quantity which measures the singularity of a plurisubharmonic function$φ$relative to another plurisubharmonic function$ψ$, at a point$a$. We denote this quantity by$ν$_{$a$,$ψ$}($φ$). It can be seen as a generalization of the classical Lelong number in a natural way: if$ψ$=($n$−1)log| ⋅ −$a$|, where$n$is the dimension of the set where$φ$is defined, then$ν$_{$a$,$ψ$}($φ$) coincides with the classical Lelong number of$φ$at the point$a$. The main theorem of this article says that the upper level sets of our generalized Lelong number, i.e. the sets of the form {$z$:$ν$_{$z$,$ψ$}($φ$)≥$c$} where$c$>0, are in fact analytic sets, provided that the$weight$$ψ$satisfies some additional conditions.

In this paper, we introduce a new provably secure ephemeral-only RLWE+Rounding-based key exchange protocol and a proper approach to more accurately estimate the security level of the RLWE problem with only one sample. Since our scheme is an ephemeral-only key exchange, it generates only one RLWE sample from protocol execution. We carefully analyze how to estimate the practical security of the RLWE problem with only one sample, which we call the ONE-sample RLWE problem. Our approach is different from existing approaches that are based on estimation with multiple RLWE samples. Though our analysis is based on some recently developed techniques in Darmstadt, our type of practical security estimate was never done before and it produces security estimates substantial different from the estimates before based on multiple RLWE samples. We show that the new design improves the security and reduce the communication cost of the protocol simultaneously by using one RLWE+Rounding sample technique. We also present two parameter choices ensuring 2^{−60} key exchange failure probability which cover security of AES-128/192/256 with concrete security analysis and implementation. We believe that our construction is secure, simple, efficient and elegant with wide application prospects.

We construct a conformally invariant random family of closed curves in the plane by welding of random homeomorphisms of the unit circle. The homeomorphism is constructed using the exponential of$βX$, where X is the restriction of the 2-dimensional free field on the circle and the parameter$β$is in the “high temperature” regime $$ \beta < \sqrt {2} $$ . The welding problem is solved by studying a non-uniformly elliptic Beltrami equation with a random complex dilatation. For the existence a method of Lehto is used. This requires sharp probabilistic estimates to control conformal moduli of annuli and they are proven by decomposing the free field as a sum of independent fixed scale fields and controlling the correlations of the complex dilatation restricted to dyadic cells of various scales. For the uniqueness we invoke a result by Jones and Smirnov on conformal removability of Hölder curves. Our curves are closely related to SLE($ϰ$) for$ϰ$<4.
