Hybrid hash function post-quantum cryptography research: a new paper on IACR ePrint formalizes a construction whose collision resistance simultaneously requires breaking both the elliptic-curve ...

The U.S.-based data crunching firm is deeply embedded in the most sensitive European workflows, from policing to intelligence ...

A million-dollar math mystery may someday be resolved in a physics lab. A new study brings this vision one step closer.

Britain does not lack difficult problems. Nor do we lack good ideas. But too often we fail to build lasting public agreement around the biggest decisions we face. Social care, welfare reform, and the ...

Anthropic said its Mythos model—which currently remains available only to a select group of trusted users—was able to advance attacks against two cryptosystems. The first system is HAWK, a digital ...

An M.I.T. Ph.D. student and two University of California system cryptographers used GPT-5.6 Sol Ultra in different ways, raising new questions about independent discovery and scientific credit ...

A quantum problem once described as impossible for classical computers has now been solved using relatively modest hardware. Researchers used tensor networks to compress the overwhelming wave function ...

America’s most prolific drilling region finds itself on the brink of being trapped between an uptick in drilling in response to rising energy prices and not enough ways to get product to market.

For decades, solving the world’s hardest mathematical problems has been considered a uniquely human pursuit, requiring imagination, persistence and the ability to explore ideas beyond established ...

According to the SAE, formerly known as the Society of Automotive Engineers (now SAE International), there are six levels of automated driving, with only Level 5 being fully driverless. Self-driving ...
