Local vs Global seems to be one of the most important philosophies behind math. People in some fields call it “compactness”, others don’t. In short, it says that the property of an object is related to the property of every smaller subobject.

This post briefly proves why the rational points of an elliptic curve is a group. The proof idea comes from MATH 214B, but I tried to use classical language.

This posts discusses the relation between two’s complement and 2-adic integer in math. I want to show what operations we can have if we ignore overflow.

When solving a problem, it is common that we have two different strategies that fit in different cases. For example, one algorithm may have a better time complexity but uses more memory than the other. Or, one is fast when there are only a few of large objects, but the other works better when there are many small objects. However, I found that there usually exists a solution which is a naive mixture of the two strategies, and its performance will be the sqrt of the two.

Service invocation is tricky. The protocol itself seems to be super simple: we call a function, and it returns. But the problem is, when the function is on another machine, how we know the state of that machine / the whole system. The developers of the caller do not want to care, so we protocol designers should care for them. But trying to make everyone happy is so tough here.

This post makes notes on residue theorem and its application, since most non-mathematicians only need to remember this after learning complex analysis. Some definitions may be not defined very rigorously from a complex analysis view.

Authentication (AuthN, 認証) and authorization (AuthZ, 承認) are important pieces in system security. In one word, AuthN verifies the identity of the requester, and AuthZ decides whether a specific operation is allowed.

There is always a need for service discovery and load balancing, but no universal solution. Sometimes naive ways may satisfy most needs.
