We investigate the computational complexity of neural network verification in quantised settings. We distinguish three classes of Feedforward Neural Networks (FNNs): rational FNNs with exact rational weights, quantised FNNs whose weights…
Online change point detection in dynamic graphs requires comparing graphs as they arrive, in time linear in the number of edges, without parametric assumptions. Recent spectral methods address scale via the Kernel Polynomial Method (KPM):…
We prove in this paper that there is a language $L_s$ accepted by some nondeterministic Turing machine that runs within time $O(n^k)$ for any positive integer $k\in\mathbb{N}_1$ but not by any ${\rm co}\mathcal{NP}$ machines. Then we…
In abstract models of algorithmic self-assembly, synchronization between attachments has emerged as a crucial distinction between the classical asynchronous model (aTAM) and a new synchronous model, the syncTAM. This paper presents recent…
We introduce a rotation-invariant representation of planar shapes. In particular, this representation encodes shapes as vectors such that the Euclidean distance between them serves as a valid shape distance. For standardized, star-shaped…
Claims about recursive self-improvement in AI often slide from repeated internal revision to the possibility of qualitatively stronger capability without clearly distinguishing the underlying computational regimes. This paper gives a formal…
Rice's theorem shows that nontrivial extensional properties of partial recursive functions are undecidable. For finite weighted Boolean optimization/CSP-style slices, a Rice-style structural analogue holds for tractability classification:…
This paper proves a conjecture by Solomon about Steiner shallow-light trees (SLT) in Euclidean $d$-space: It is shown that for any finite point set $\mathbb{R}^d$, any root, and any $\epsilon>0$, there is a Euclidean Steiner…
Let $f: T\to \{ 0,1 \}$ be a Boolean function on the Boolean half-slice, $T$, \ie elements of $\{0,1\}^n$ with Hamming weight $n/2$. We show that if $f(x)+f(y)=f(x+y)$ holds with probability $\frac{1+\delta}{2}$ over a uniform pair $(x,y)$…
We introduce Pudlak-Buss style Prover-Adversary games to characterise proof systems reasoning over deterministic branching programs (BPs) and non-deterministic branching programs (NBPs). Our starting points are the proof systems eLDT and…
We propose a framework of algorithm vs. hardness for all Max-CSPs and demonstrate it for a large class of predicates. This framework extends the work of Raghavendra [STOC, 2008], who showed a similar result for almost satisfiable Max-CSPs.…
Neural networks encode inputs as high-dimensional vectors, known as representations, that capture how models process data by encoding task-relevant structure and semantics. Representation alignment refers to the degree to which different…
We prove new upper and lower bounds on $\epsilon$-approximate sign-rank, a relaxation of sign-rank introduced by Chornomaz, Moran, and Waknine (STOC 2025). We show that every $m \times n$ sign matrix with approximate sign-rank $d$ contains…
Unlike in TFNP, for which there is an abundance of problems capturing natural existence principles which are incomparable (in the black-box setting), Kleinberg et al. [KKMP21] observed that many of the natural problems considered so far in…
It is an open question whether the search and decision versions of promise CSPs are equivalent. Most known algorithms for PCSPs solve only their \emph{decision} variant, and it is unknown whether they can be adapted to solve \emph{search}…
The P versus NP problem is addressed in a context of provability and limitations on the possibility of finding sound axioms for formal theories. It is shown that if the term "constructible theory" is defined in a way which satisfies certain…
Recent developments in shape reconstruction and comparison call for the use of many different (topological) descriptor types, such as persistence diagrams and Euler characteristic functions. We establish a framework to quantitatively…
In this paper, we extend the techniques used in our previous work to show that there exists a probabilistic Turing machine running within time $O(n^k)$ for all $k\in\mathbb{N}_1$ accepting a language $L_d$ that is different from any…
The persistent homology transform (PHT) represents a shape with a multiset of persistence diagrams parameterized by the sphere of directions in the ambient space. In this work, we describe a finite set of diagrams that discretize the PHT…
Our context of interest is how binary locality sensitive hash (LSH) functions can be used to solve the approximate near neighbour (ANN) problem, which seeks to find the k closest elements of some dataset X to some further point q presented…
