I am curious about the effectiveness of the approach I have taken in
communicating mathematical ideas and research I feel is important, so
I am making this post to ask your opinion!

You can answer freely but I will give a few questions that reflect
areas that are of great interest to me, so responses to those question
would be appreciated:

1. Do you believe that I may have valuable mathematical ideas?

2. Do you believe that it is at all possible that mathematicians are
fraudulently and deliberately blocking those ideas?

3. Can important ideas in factoring be presented loudly without
anyone around the world noticing or caring, like governments or
security agencies if those factoring ideas could lead to major
breaches in security?

4. Have you heard me talk of a "z constraint"? Does that mean
anything to you?

5. Do you think I should just shut-up, or should I post as much as I
want--like anyone else?

6. Why do you think so many posters reply to me?

7. Do you trust mathematicians of today to tell the truth as best
they know about mathematical ideas and research regardless of the
source?

Thank you.

You're entitled to post however you please. Some people find your
posts annoying, but others (like me for example) actually quite enjoy
them. But that doesn't mean it's a good idea. If you're genuinely
interested in learning and contributing to maths for its own sake then
you would be well advised to cut down on the ranting and try to
understand what people are telling you /before/ deciding that they're
wrong. Take your "four equations in four unknowns" factoring method
from a few weeks ago, for example; when Marcus and I tried to explain
why that method failed you questioned our competence and our motives
(and were really quite insulting towards Marcus), but eventually came
to realise that our objections were bang on the money. You could reach
correct conclusions such as that one a lot quicker if you stopped
believing that everyone who doesn't proclaim your genius is out to get
you. On the other hand, if you're not really interested in maths but
just want to get rich and famous and powerful then based on what I
have seen of your work I sincerely believe that nothing you write here
will ever make that happen.

Quote:

6. Why do you think so many posters reply to me?

Not that many posters do; I expect that among regular sci.math posters
the number of responders to your threads is pretty well correlated to
your own posting volume. You have excellent troll skills, that's for
sure, which, together with the fact that things often need to be
explained to you many times before they sink in (if ever), makes your
threads longer than most on sci.math. But look at the number of
replies to the thread "A consideration concerning the diagonal
argument of G. Cantor", or the average AP thread by way of comparison;
if you are trying to suggest that the time that mathematicians spend
arguing with you is evidence that they are desperately trying to
suppress the truth, then you should ask yourself whether you think
they are also trying to suppress the "truth" that the real numbers are
countable and that the universe is a giant Plutonium atom.

On reflection, I think you should add a couple more questions:

8. Can Veterans be trusted?

9. Does having a high IQ mean you're smarter than someone with a math
degree?

10. Are the people at alt.writing just jealous?

11. Should David Ullrich be put in jail?

12. If I can't factor a number, it must be prime, right?

13. Is a hyperbola just a parabola tipped sideways?

I didn't follow your research close enough to actually form an

the math looks like gibberish. Maybe somebody on the group can make an

I don't care. As long as they can produce textbooks that I enjoy

You mean even more loudly than you do?

Here are RCA challenges crisp and clear for anybody to crack. You

For some reason I trust mathematicians more than climatologists.
Excuse me for being politically incorrect, but there is a natural
selection at work: the brigtest ones go to mathematics, the more
opportunistic ones go to climatology. The latter have a nerve to
invoke "the science" banner to defend their shoddy work. They are even
more loud then you are, and make no mistake: if you were as dangerous
they to jeopardize everybody else living standards, you'd be hated
with much more passion.

Loaded question: efficient factor methods would not cause major
security breaches.
And anyway, analysis of security problems of widespread computation
and communication systems are regularly published despite the fact
that such knowledge actually causes security breaches. (Think about
the WEP flaws or the countless critical vulnerabilities in Internet
Explorer and Outlook).

Research on efficient factoring is also published. See Shor's quantum
algorithm, for instance.

Quote:

2. Do you believe that it is at all possible that mathematicians are

Deliberately yes, in the one case where your paper was withdrawn because of
errors, it is their responsibility to prevent substandard technical content
(any paper with errors) from being published. No fraud involved, that is
too time consuming and complicated.

The journal had the paper for nine months and I was in continual
communication by email and told them that I was an amateur researcher.

As a rhetorical question, why would the editors publish a paper from
an admitted amateur that had errors?

One of my favorite later emails AFTER publication from one of the
editors in reply to me thinking them for publication noted that
mathematics was important regardless of the source, even if it came
from a janitor.

I'm not a janitor. The cultural reference seemed obvious to me.

So then, if the editors were that all the way in, how does it make
sense to so many of you that the paper was actually flawed?

Isn't a cover-up more likely? Especially considering that later the
journal DIED? And Cameron University removed all mention of it from
their websites so that EMIS had to save 9 years of math papers out of
the goodness of its heart?

Do you really think that one paper had the power to destroy and entire
math journal and 9 years of other papers, because it was wrong?

Quote:

3. Can important ideas in factoring be presented loudly without
anyone around the world noticing or caring, like governments or
security agencies if those factoring ideas could lead to major
breaches in security?

yes, check out early days of PHP. Also there are several free complex multi
level encription/decrytion SW on the internet that no Goveernment can break
anyway. The Gov just want their stuff to stay secure, most of that are very
very large Psudo Random number streams, and have nothing to do with
factoring.


I'm afraid that is the case, which is why I am somewhat paused as I
consider what to do next.

Quote:

4. Have you heard me talk of a "z constraint"? Does that mean
anything to you?

yes, but how much does it improve anything in quantitave terms?

It shows an equation that defines z when T mod 3 = 2, and

z^2 = y^2 + T.

Then z = (1 + 2á^2)k/(2á), where

k^2 = (1 + á^2)^{-1}(nT) mod p

and p is an odd prime of your choice chosen such that k exists, and
since there are (p-1)/2 prime residues, it should exist about 50% of
the time.

Then you also get factors mod p:

f_1 = ák mod p

and

f_2 = á^{-1}(1 + á^2)k mod p.

But you'd still need to find k, but the research shows that k is near
the k such that

abs(T - (1 + á^2)k^2)

is a minimum in that with positive k it is greater than or equal to
that value, and has the residue given by the equation above.

So attacking an RSA number could be feasible if all that is true just
by picking a large prime p, and trying it. If it doesn't work, try
another, and 50% of them should work, and then you'd have z.

5. Do you think I should just shut-up, or should I post as much as I

You may run into something that really works, and others do review what you

that are complicated. The whining is distracting and invites attacks.

But what if I've followed the rules--like with publication--and it
hasn't mattered?

Is my only hope factoring a large number?

years, etc Most are too busy working on hard problems, like you are, and

I am no enemy to you.

I don't know. The ideas or research maybe interesting, maybe not.

As much as i don't know what you are trying to communicate. And i
don't think that you can communicate with human, except maybe... some
anmls, say.. dgs, mse, cts, etc. because you are speaking no human
language. Hahaha...

would be appreciated:

1. Do you believe that I may have valuable mathematical ideas?

No. And I've been reading your stuff for years.


Quote:

2. Do you believe that it is at all possible that mathematicians are
fraudulently and deliberately blocking those ideas?


No. If an unknown mathematician had a major breakthrough, everyone would
notice and publicize it.


Quote:
3. Can important ideas in factoring be presented loudly without
anyone around the world noticing or caring, like governments or
security agencies if those factoring ideas could lead to major
breaches in security?


No. If you or anyone else made an actual breakthrough, the result would
be famous worldwide within days.



Quote:
4. Have you heard me talk of a "z constraint"? Does that mean
anything to you?


Yes, this is your latest delusion. It means nothing.



Quote:
5. Do you think I should just shut-up, or should I post as much as I
want--like anyone else?


I'm for free speech. My only comment is that you used to be more
entertaining, and the past few months you seem genuinely disturbed. I
prefer entertainment.




Quote:
6. Why do you think so many posters reply to me?


You're interesting. And, at least in the past, you used to point people
in genuinely interesting mathematical directions. For example, you
turned a lot of people on to the algebraic integers.

7. Do you trust mathematicians of today to tell the truth as best
they know about mathematical ideas and research regardless of the
source?


Absolutely.

You can answer freely but I will give a few questions that reflect
areas that are of great interest to me, so responses to those question
would be appreciated:

1. Do you believe that I may have valuable mathematical ideas?

yes, extending to larger numbers may be difficult

2. Do you believe that it is at all possible that mathematicians are
fraudulently and deliberately blocking those ideas?

Deliberately yes, in the one case where your paper was withdrawn because of
errors, it is their responsibility to prevent substandard technical content
(any paper with errors) from being published. No fraud involved, that is
too time consuming and complicated.

security agencies if those factoring ideas could lead to major
breaches in security?

yes, check out early days of PHP. Also there are several free complex multi
level encription/decrytion SW on the internet that no Goveernment can break
anyway. The Gov just want their stuff to stay secure, most of that are very
very large Psudo Random number streams, and have nothing to do with
factoring.

4. Have you heard me talk of a "z constraint"? Does that mean
anything to you?

yes, but how much does it improve anything in quantitave terms?

You may run into something that really works, and others do review what you
have so far, and you have brought up interesting points in Abstract Algebra
that are complicated. The whining is distracting and invites attacks.

Quote:

6. Why do you think so many posters reply to me?

Some are really trying to help you. Some attack the whining.

Most do tell the truth, it is an honor, and their truth is in the language
of Math and honorable traceable back to Newton, and before thousands of
years, etc Most are too busy working on hard problems, like you are, and
have no time to spend even thinking of being deceptive.

Thank you.

You're amusing. And we are probably a little sick - like rubbernecking
a car crash.

Mostly, yes.
