- Abstract: The elliptic curve discrete logarithm problem is of fundamental importance in public-key cryptography. It is in use for a long time. Moreover, it is an interesting challenge in computational mathematics. Its solution is supposed to provide interesting research directions. In this paper, we explore ways to solve the elliptic curve discrete logarithm problem. Our results are mostly computational. However, it seems, the methods that we develop and directions that we pursue can provide a potent attack on this problem. This work follows our earlier work, where we tried to solve this problem by finding a zero minor in a matrix over the same finite field on which the elliptic curve is defined. This paper is self-contained.

We consider the problem of isotonic regression over a partially ordered set (poset) $mathcalX$ and for any Lipschitz loss function.
We obtain a pure-DP algorithm that has an expected excess empirical risk of roughly $mathrmwidth(mathcalX) cdot log|mathcalX| / n$, where $mathrmwidth(mathcalX)$ is the width of the poset.
We show that the bounds above are essentially the best that can be

We revisit the classic online portfolio selection problem, where at each round a learner selects a distribution over a set of portfolios to allocate its wealth.
Existing algorithms that achieve a logarithmic regret for this problem have per-round time and space complexities that scale with the total number of rounds.
We present the first practical online portfolio selection algorithm with a logarithmic regret and whose per-round time and space complexities depend only logarithmically on the horizon.

Here, we propose a homotopy algorithm that first transforms the problem into an easy form, by changing the target distribution.
It then transforms the problem back to the original form through a series of iterations, tracing a path of solutions until it finds the optimal solution for the original problem.
