The Collision Spectrum

Alexander S. Petty

For a prime base $b$ and primitive odd Dirichlet character $I ¨ $ modulo $b^{2}$ , the collision transform coefficient $S^^{\circ} (I ¨ )$ admits an exact factorization: \[ \hat{S}^{\…

The Collision Transform

Alexander S. Petty

For a prime p and base b, the collision invariant $S_{ℓ} (p)$ , introduced in the companion paper, is a function of $p mod b^{ℓ + 1}$ and therefore lives on the finite group $(…

The Collision Invariant

Alexander S. Petty

For a prime p and base b, the digit function delta(r) = floor(br/p) partitions the residues {1, ..., p-1} into b contiguous bins. The collision count C(g) records how many residues…
