| | | | | This post assumes working knowledge of elementary number theory. Luckily for the non-mathematicians, we cover all required knowledge and notation in our number theory primer. So Three Thousand Years of Number Theory Wasn't Pointless It's often tough to come up with concrete applications of pure mathematics. In fact, before computers came along mathematics was used mostly for navigation, astronomy, and war. In the real world it almost always coincided with the physical sciences. | |

| | | | | The venerable RSA public key encryption algorithm is very elegant. It requires a basic understanding of modular arithmetic, which may sound scary if you havent studied it. It reduces to taking the remainder after integer long division. The RSA Wikipedia article describes five simple steps to generate the keys. Encryption and decryption are a matter of basic exponentiation. Theres no advanced math, and its easy to understand their example of working with small numbers. | |

| | | The Langevin algorithm is a simple and powerful method to sample from a probability distribution. It's a key ingredient of some machine learning methods such as diffusion models and differentially private learning. In this post, I'll derive a simple convergence analysis of this method in the special case when the ... | ||
