AG Mathematische Informatik
im SS 2005
Prof. Dr. C.-P. Schnorr, Prof. Dr. M. Sieveking
A. Scemama, R. Hartung
"AG Mathematische Informatik" is meant as a place to communicate on research areas,
which are related to cryptography, discrete mathematics, and/or theoretical computer science.
Anyone interested in these topics is kindly invited to attend.
Proposals to contribition are also most appreciated.
Important:
During the current semester, the AG will take place as a joint course with
the group "Theoretical Computer Science"
from the CS department.
Expectedly, all talks will be given at Seminarraum 9, ground floor of the "Informatik" department
building, Robert-Mayer-Straße 11, on Wednesdays at 16:15. map
We aim at a schedule in which consecutive talks are offered by alternating groups.
The schedule as well as further details will be soon available here, or by e-mail after sending a short note
of interest to hartung (at) math.uni-frankfurt.de.
The schedule as determined by now:

Abstract of current talk:
Rupert Hartung: The Complexity of Computational Problems on Quadratic Forms
An integral quadratic form is a homogeneous polynomial of degree 2 over Z.
Loosely speaking, understanding quadratic forms is equivalent with being able
to solve quadratic equations, which is known to be NP-complete when the number of
variables tends to infinity. In this talk, however, we consider computational problems
for quadratic forms in low dimension (with n<5 variables) and show how their complexity
relates to each other and to the factoring problem.
