Book excerpt: Do not be fooled. The Sieve, Book 1 of 4 of the Drakon epic fantasy series, is the tale of twelve-year old Da-Ren but this is not a young-adult series. Your children shouldn't read it until they're children no more. On his thirty-second year Da-Ren arrives on the island of the Castlemonastery to redeem the lives of his wife and daughter. His only offering is a jar of honey. He is born in a pagan tribe, north of the Blackvein River, a leader of fierce men who dream only of the story they'll take to the stars and who kneel only in front of the longskull witches. For years the monks will transcribe his words, a brutal yet poetic first-person narrative of war, death and love. The ink will flow brown for his childhood, black for the tribe, red for the campaign, and blue for his metamorphosis. It is a story that reads like fantasy though its most unbelievable moments are based on historical events and actual tribes. This is a hard-fantasy novel where man is the only monster and the human spirit fights against superstition and racial hatred. Will it prevail? At what price? "I cannot defeat their stories, the legends, the prophecies... they have endured for countless winters now." "You can, Da-Ren. But not with blades. Only with other stories. Better ones."

Book excerpt: “A masterpiece of the epistolary novel told in diary entries . . . beautifully translated . . . deeply felt”—from an award-winning and bestselling Danish novelist (Bookforum) A penetrating study of a woman who, in the wake of her domineering husband’s death, must embrace her newfound freedom and redefine herself Set in rural Denmark in the early 20th century, A Change of Time tells the story of a schoolteacher whose husband, the town doctor, has passed away. Her subsequent diary entries form an intimate portrait of a woman rebuilding her identity, and a small rural town whose path to modernity echoes her own path to joyful independence. “An engaging, honest, and beautifully written look at love, loss, and self-realization.” —Kirkus Reviews

Download or read book The Development of the Number Field Sieve written by Arjen K. Lenstra and published by Springer. This book was released on 2006-11-15 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The number field sieve is an algorithm for finding the prime factors of large integers. It depends on algebraic number theory. Proposed by John Pollard in 1988, the method was used in 1990 to factor the ninth Fermat number, a 155-digit integer. The algorithm is most suited to numbers of a special form, but there is a promising variant that applies in general. This volume contains six research papers that describe the operation of the number field sieve, from both theoretical and practical perspectives. Pollard's original manuscript is included. In addition, there is an annotated bibliography of directly related literature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From areport by a Lieutenant Colonel W.A. Ross (Chern. News, Nov.15, 1878, p. 236). Progress did not accelerate during the next 50 years. McBain, in his clas sic 1932 book, The Sorption oi Gases by So lids, devoted a chapter to sorp tion by chabasite, other zeolites, and permeable crystals. McBain remarked that "great interest attaches to the finding of Weigel and Steinhoff [0. Weigel and E. Steinhoff, Z. Kris!., 61, 125 (1925{raquo}) that chabasite rapidly sorbs the vapors of water, methyl and ethyl alcohol and formie acid, whereas acetone, ether and benzene are largely excluded. The significance of their results was pointed out by McBain [J.W. McBain, Colloid. Syrnp. Mon., 20, 1 (1926{raquo}) and recognized by alliater writers. It is evident that the partially dehydrated chabasite forms a nearly perfect molecular sieve or a semipermeable membrane of extremely regular structure ... ". While the significance of the above observation may have been recog nized, it had little impact. Thus, an eminent pioneer in the synthesis and characterization af zeolites, Professor R.M. Barrer, spent nearly two dec ades (following his Ph. D. studies in the 1930s) developing a firm foundation for the rapid growth in scientific understanding and industrial applications of zeolites which has taken place during the last 30 years.
Download or read book The Distribution of Prime Numbers written by Dimitris Koukoulopoulos and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2019-12-06 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prime numbers have fascinated mathematicians since the time of Euclid. This book presents some of our best tools to capture the properties of these fundamental objects, beginning with the most basic notions of asymptotic estimates and arriving at the forefront of mathematical research. Detailed proofs of the recent spectacular advances on small and large gaps between primes are made accessible for the first time in textbook form. Some other highlights include an introduction to probabilistic methods, a detailed study of sieves, and elements of the theory of pretentious multiplicative functions leading to a proof of Linnik's theorem. Throughout, the emphasis has been placed on explaining the main ideas rather than the most general results available. As a result, several methods are presented in terms of concrete examples that simplify technical details, and theorems are stated in a form that facilitates the understanding of their proof at the cost of sacrificing some generality. Each chapter concludes with numerous exercises of various levels of difficulty aimed to exemplify the material, as well as to expose the readers to more advanced topics and point them to further reading sources.
Download or read book The Sieve of Angkar written by Sovannara Ky and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2011-01-13 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a true account of what the author experienced when the Khmer Rouge revolutionary forces under Pol Pot took control of Cambodia in 1975. Swept from their industrious life of learning and enterprise in Phnom Penh, the Ky family was driven, along with millions of others, into the Cambodian countryside to fulfill Pol Pot's vision of a Communist, agrarian society. Angkar, not a person or a political party but rather a goal, a zeal for the Communist ideal, a name for the collective effort, replaced the warm family life the Ky's had thrived in. With an army consisting largely of illiterate, impoverished youth, easily incited to gratuitous, hateful violence against the relatively wealthy city dwellers, in the pattern of Stalin and Mao, Angkar began reshaping Khmer agriculture with forced labor. No measure of terror or bloodletting was spared for the sake of the goal. All the accomplished, influential people were sifted out so as not to spoil Angkar with their experience or education. Employing barbarism so alien to the gentle Khmers, who hardly knew what was happening, Angkar stumbled along fruitlessly until the military intervention by neighboring Viet Nam ended the insanity and brought it all to light. This is the incredible, true story of the faith, endurance and courage it took to survive and escape THE SIEVE OF ANGKAR
