We show that $\mathbb{Z}[\sqrt{-p}]$ is not a unique factorization domain (UFD) but a factorization domain (FD) with a condition $1\;+\;a^2p\;=\;qr$, where a and p are positive integers and q and r are positive primes in $\mathbb{Z}$ with q < p. Using this result, we also construct several specific non-unique factorization domains which are factorization domains. Furthermore, we prove that an integral domain $\mathbb{Z}[\sqrt{-p}]$ is not a UFD but a FD for some positive integer p.

In this paper, we provide a classification of arithmetic functions in terms of identically-free-distributedness, determined by a fixed prime. We show then such classifications are free from the choice of primes. In particular, we obtain that the algebra $A_p$ of equivalence classes under the quotient on A by the identically-free-distributedness is isomorphic to an algebra $\mathbb{C}^2$, having its multiplication $({\bullet});(t_1,t_2){\bullet}(s_1,s_2)=(t_1s_1,t_1s_2+t_2s_1)$.

We classify linear maps which preserve idempotents on $n{\times}n$ matrices over some classes of semirings. Our results include many known semirings like the semiring of all nonnegative integers, the semiring of all nonnegative reals, any unital commutative ring, which is zero divisor free and of characteristic not two (not necessarily a principal ideal domain), and the ring of integers modulo m, where m is a product of distinct odd primes.

Let p, ${\ell}$ be distinct odd primes, q be an odd prime power with gcd(q, p) = gcd(q,${\ell}$) = 1, and m, n be positive integers. In this paper, we determine all self-dual, self-orthogonal and complementary-dual negacyclic codes of length $2p^{n{\ell}m}$ over the finite field ${\mathbb{F}}_q$ with q elements. We also illustrate our results with some examples.

Let ${\Phi}_n(x)={\sum}^{{\phi}(n)}_{k=0}a(n,k)x^k$ denote the n-th cyclotomic polynomial. In this note, let p < q < r be odd primes, where $q{\not{\equiv}}1$ (mod p) and $r{\equiv}-2$ (mod pq), we construct an explicit k such that a(pqr, k) = -2.

We will show that if d is a cubefree integer and n is an integer, then with some suitable conditions, there are no primes p and a positive integer m such that d is a cubic residue (mod p), $3\;{\nmid}\;m$, p || n if and only if there are integers x, y, z such that $$x^3\;+\;dy^3\;+\;d^2z^3\;-\;3dxyz\;=\;n$$.

In this paper we classify finite groups whose nonnormal subgroups are of order p or pq, where p, q are primes. As a by-product, we also classify the finite groups in which all nonnormal subgroups are cyclic.

Let R be a commutative Noetherian ring (with a nonzero identity) and let M be an R-module. Further let I be an ideal of R. In this paper, by putting a suitable condition on $Ass_R$(M), we obtain some results concerning $I^{*(M)}$ and prove that the sequence of sets $Ass_R(R/(I^n)^{*(M)})$, $n\;\in\;N$, is increasing and ultimately constant. (Here $(I^n)^{*(M)}$ denotes the integral closure of $I^n$ relative to M.)

The Cayley graph ${\Gamma}=Cay(G,S)$ is called normal edge-transitive if $N_A(R(G))$ acts transitively on the set of edges of ${\Gamma}$, where $A=Aut({\Gamma})$ and R(G) is the regular subgroup of A. In this paper, we determine all hexavalent normal edge-transitive Cayley graphs on groups of order pqr, where p > q > r > 2 are prime numbers.

In this paper, we analyze the security of the KMOV public key cryptosystem. KMOV is based on elliptic curves over the ring $\mathbb{Z}_n$ where n = pq is the product of two large unknown primes of equal bit-size. We consider KMOV with a public key (n, e) where the exponent e satisfies an equation ex-(p+1)(q+1)y = z, with unknown parameters x, y, z. Using Diophantine approximations and lattice reduction techniques, we show that KMOV is insecure when x, y, z are suitably small.
