Quantum computing is cool, but you know what would be extra awesome - a quantum internet. In fact if we want the first we’ll need the latter. And the first step to the quantum internet is quantum cryptography.

Your extensive posting history on r/birdswitharms and your old fanfiction-heavy livejournal are both one tiny math problem away from becoming public knowledge. That math problem is prime number factoring, and the new era of quantum...

Classical computers struggle to crack modern encryption. But quantum computers using Shor's Algorithm make short work of RSA cryptography. Find out how.

A beutiful derivation of a formula for pi. At first, 1-1/3+1/5-1/7+1/9-.... seems unrelated to circles, but in fact there is a circle hiding here, as well as some interesting facts about prime numbers in the context of complex numbers.

Here we break down Asymmetric crypto and more.

A curious pattern in polar plots with prime numbers, together with discussion of Dirichlet's theorem

Only 4 steps stand between you and the secrets hidden behind RSA cryptography. Find out how to crack the world's most commonly used form of encryption.

In this math video lesson we will learn how to factor linear expressions using the greatest common factor (GCF) and rewrite expressions using parentheses, aligned to 7.EE.A.1. Viewers will be able to find the GCF of a linear expression...
