A lightweight and fast pure Python ECDSA

We tried other Python libraries such as python-ecdsa, fast-ecdsa and other less famous ones, but we didn't find anything that suited our needs. The first one was pure Python, but it was too slow. The ...

Characterizations of the Euclidean Ball by Intersections with Planes and Slabs

In this article we prove two characterizations of the Euclidean ball: (i) the only convex body in ℝ³ such that every normal plane bisects the volume (or surface area) is the Euclidean ball, (ii) the ...
