x86 Paging Tutorial The problem with single-level paging Updated 2025-07-16
The problem with a single-level paging scheme is that it would take up too much RAM: 4G / 4K = 1M entries per process.
If each entry is 4 bytes long, that would make 4M per process, which is too much even for a desktop computer:
ps -A | wc -l
says that I am running 244 processes right now, so that would take around 1GB of my RAM! graphviz/hello.dot Updated 2025-07-16

Complexity: NP-intermediate as of 2020:
- expected not to be NP-complete because it would imply NP != Co-NP: cstheory.stackexchange.com/questions/167/what-are-the-consequences-of-factoring-being-np-complete#comment104849_169
- expected not to be in P because "could we be that dumb that we haven't found a solution after having tried for that long?

Reduction of an elliptic curve over the rational numbers to an elliptic curve over a finite field mod p Updated 2025-07-16
This construction takes as input:and it produces an elliptic curve over a finite field of order as output.
The constructions is used in the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture.
To do it, we just convert the coefficients and from the Equation "Definition of the elliptic curves" from rational numbers to elements of the finite field.
For the denominator , we just use the multiplicative inverse, e.g. supposing we havewhere because , related: math.stackexchange.com/questions/1204034/elliptic-curve-reduction-modulo-p

Relativistic quantum mechanics Updated 2025-07-16
The first really good quantum mechanics theory made compatible with special relativity was the Dirac equation.
And then came quantum electrodynamics to improve it: Dirac equation vs quantum electrodynamics.
TODO: does it use full blown QED, or just something intermediate?

Ciro Santilli's LinkedIn profile: www.linkedin.com/in/cirosantilli/ see also: accounts controlled by Ciro Accounts.
LinkedIn fully complies with censorship imposed locally by the Chinese government, and does so in a non-transparent way: cirosantilli.com/china-dictatorship/linkedin.
It is hard to understand what the point of that website is, as it is basically just a more closed version of Facebook, but alas, it has flourished as the only place where people post more useful content compared to Twitter and Facebook. In any case, Ciro just applies the same unfollow policy to all of them: aggressively filter your social media follows.
