black hole. What does that even mean? Is it really “like” anything
inside a black hole? Nature keeps us from ever knowing. (Well, what
we know for sure is that nature keeps us from...
The areas of computational intractability and pseudorandomness
have been among the most exciting scientific disciplines in the
past decades, with remarkable achievements, challenges, and
deep...
Although the concept of randomness is ubiquitous, it turns out
to be difficult to generate a truly random sequence of events. The
need for "pseudorandomness" in various parts of modern science,
ranging from numerical simulation to cryptography, has...
