The Unidirectional Pulse Propagation Equation for Cylindrical Vector modes
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2015-07-27)A new model for the unidirectional pulse propagation equations (UPPE) was developed by Per Jacobsen[1], this model is based on the assumption of cylindrical vector (CV) modes. The model will be strong for CV type electrical eld representations where only a few modes will be excited. In this thesis we will investigate the model further. The model will be implemented as a pseudo spectral method where ... -
The use of elliptic curves in cryptography
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2007-06)The use of elliptic curves in cryptography was suggested independently by Neal Koblitz and Victor Miller in 1985. Being a relatively new field, there is still a lot of ongoing research on the subject, but elliptic curve cryptography, or ECC for short, has already been implemented in real-life applications. Its strength was proved in 2003 when the U.S. National Security Agency adopted ECC for protecting ... -
Wachpress Conjecture Restricted To Arrangements Of Three Conics
(Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2022-05-15)This thesis discusses Wachpress conjecture restricted to arrangements of three conics. Wachpress conjectured the existence of a set of barycentric coordinates, namely Wachpress coordinates, on all polycons. Barycentric coordinates are very useful in many different fields as they can be used to define a finite element approximation scheme with linear precision. This thesis focuses on the conjecture ...
