This paper considers the question of P = NP in context of the polynomial time SAT algorithm. It posits proposition dependent on existence of conjectured problem that even where the algorithm is shown to solve SAT in polynomial time it…

We consider quantum interpolation of polynomials. We imagine a quantum computer with black-box access to input/output pairs (x_i, f(x_i)), where f is a degree-d polynomial, and we wish to compute f(0). We give asymptotically tight quantum…

We study the polynomial algebra (over a ring containing the rationals) in an n by m matrix of variables, and subject to the relation that says that the product of any two variables in the same column is zero. We show that the sub-algebra of…

In this paper, the $mn$-dimensional space of tensor-product polynomials of two variables, of degree at most $(m-1)+(n-1)$, is considered. A theory of two-variate polynomials is developed by establishing the algebra and basic algebraic…

We investigate the computational problem of determining whether a bivariate polynomial with non-negative coefficients and no constant term can attain a prime value. While classical conjectures such as Bouniakowsky's provide necessary…

We develop a new tool, namely polynomial and linear algebraic methods, for studying systems of word equations. We illustrate its usefulness by giving essentially simpler proofs of several hard problems. At the same time we prove extensions…

We establish sharp estimates that adapt the polynomial method to arbitrary varieties. These include a partitioning theorem, estimates on polynomials vanishing on fixed sets and bounds for the number of connected components of real algebraic…

We refine the complexity landscape for enumeration problems by introducing very low classes defined by using Boolean circuits as enumerators. We locate well-known enumeration problems, e.g., from graph theory, Gray code enumeration, and…

The scheme of divided differences is widely used in many approximation and interpolation problems. Computing the Newton coefficients of the interpolating polynomial is the first step of the Bj\"{o}rck and Pereyra algorithm for solving…

For $m,n \in \mathbb{N}$, $m\geq 1$ and a given function $f : \mathbb{R}^m\longrightarrow \mathbb{R}$ the polynomial interpolation problem (PIP) is to determine a \emph{generic node set} $P \subseteq \mathbb{R}^m$ and the coefficients of…

A Pfaffian circuit is a tensor contraction network where the edges are labeled with changes of bases in such a way that a very specific set of combinatorial properties are satisfied. By modeling the permissible changes of bases as systems…

We show that (as conjectured by Lin and Wang) when a Vassiliev invariant of type $m$ is evaluated on a knot projection having $n$ crossings, the result is bounded by a constant times $n^m$. Thus the well known analogy between Vassiliev…

A subset of Q^n is called semilinear (or piecewise linear) if it is Boolean combination of linear half-spaces. We study the computational complexity of the constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) over the rationals when all the constraints…

We present a computational method for reconstructing a vector field on a convex polytope $\mathcal{P} \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ of arbitrary dimension from discrete samples. We specifically address the scenario where the vector field is subject…

We investigate the proof complexity of systems based on positive branching programs, i.e. non-deterministic branching programs (NBPs) where, for any 0-transition between two nodes, there is also a 1-transition. Positive NBPs compute…

Here the polynomial interpolation approach is used to introduce the main results on multivariate normal algebraic systems. Next we bring a construction which shows that any standard algebraic system, with finite set of solutions, can be…

Evaluating a polynomial on a set of points is a fundamental task in computer algebra. In this work, we revisit a particular variant called trimmed multipoint evaluation: given an $n$-variate polynomial with bounded individual degree $d$ and…
