It is demonstrated that, while our lived present is composed of the actually performed actions, our past and future are constructed by reflexive action-thoughts in the cognitive domain of language. It is emphasized that the construction of a temporal sequence that unites what is and what already or still is not, is possible only in linguistic semiosis. The analogy with Husserl’s tripartite structure of the time-consciousness flow helps elucidate the triad ‘present-past-future’ ...

In Cohen’s account space and time pre-establish the language of observation and found all scientific-theoretical work. Lapshin, on the other hand, in discussing the formal and substantive features of these categories ...
Visual text of medieval Vladimir: the analysis of the dominant image of cathedral exteriors
... Hermeneutic presuppositions and initial cultural conditions for such an analysis are formulated. Based on the visual semiotics of Umberto Eco, it is shown that the external temple decoration of Vladimir acts both as an aesthetic object and as a semiotic construction. In line with the logical semantics of Gottlob Frege, the denotative (meaningful) and connotative (semantic) levels of coding and decoding of sacred visual texts of Vladimir cathedrals are defined. The basic references of the central image ...

An efficient implementation of an exponential point-counting algorithm on Jacobians of genus 2 hyperelliptic curves
Computing the order of Jacobian of a hyperelliptic curve is a common number-theoretical problem that has lots of applications in modern cryptography. Namely, Jacobians are applicable to constructions of DLP-based cryptosystems, as well as constructions of verifiable delay functions (VDF’s), since they can be viewed as large groups of unknown order. In this article, we present an overview of approaches to accelerate Gaudry-Schost point counting algorithm that is the fastest known algorithm...
