We obtain exact lower bounds for Kolmogorov $n$-widths in spaces $C$ and $L$ of classes of convolutions with Neumann kernel $N_{q,\beta}(t)=\sum\limits_{k=1}^{\infty}\dfrac{q^k}{k}\cos\left(kt-\dfrac{\beta\pi}{2}\right)$, ${q\in(0,1)}$,…

In this paper, we exploit the concept of Kolmogorov $n$-widths to establish optimality benchmarks for reduced-order methods used in phononic, acoustic, and photonic band structure calculations. The Bloch-transformed operators are entire…

We consider Chebyshev polynomials, $T_n(z)$, for infinite, compact sets $\frak{e} \subset \mathbb{R}$ (that is, the monic polynomials minimizing the sup-norm, $\Vert T_n \Vert_{\frak{e}}$, on $\frak{e}$). We resolve a $45+$ year old…

Let $K/\mathbb{Q}$ be a finite extension. We prove that the minimal height of polynomials of degree $n$ of which all roots are in $K^\times$ increases exponentially in $n$. We determine the implied constant exactly for totally real $K$ and…

We study the asymptotic behaviour of the approximation, Gelfand and Kolmogorov numbers of the compact embeddings of weighted function spaces of Besov and Triebel-Lizorkin type in the case where the weights belong to a large class. We obtain…

How many operations do we need on the average to compute an approximate root of a random Gaussian polynomial system? Beyond Smale's 17th problem that asked whether a polynomial bound is possible, we prove a quasi-optimal bound $\text{(input…

The domination polynomial of a graph $G$ is given by $D(G,x)=\sum_{k=0}^{n} d_k(G)x^k$ where $d_k(G)$ records the number of $k$-element dominating sets in $G$. A conjecture of Alikhani and Peng asserts that these polynomials have unimodal…

A graph is called $K$-almost regular if its maximum degree is at most $K$ times the minimum degree. Erd\H{o}s and Simonovits showed that for a constant $0< \varepsilon< 1$ and a sufficiently large integer $n$, any $n$-vertex graph with more…

An asymptotic formula is proved for the k-fold divisor function averaged over homogeneous polynomials of degree k in k-1 variables coming from incomplete norm forms.

Nikol'skii inequalities for various sets of functions, domains and weights will be discussed. Much of the work is dedicated to the class of algebraic polynomials of total degree $n$ on a bounded convex domain $D$. That is, we study…

We consider the class of polynomial optimization problems $\inf \{f(x):x\in K\}$ for which the quadratic module generated by the polynomials that define $K$ and the polynomial $c-f$ (for some scalar $c$) is Archimedean. For such problems,…

We show that the problem of finding the measure supported on a compact subset K of the complex plane such that the variance of the least squares predictor by polynomials of degree at most n at a point exterior to K is a minimum, is…

We prove that any unconditional set in $\mathbb{R}^N$ that is invariant under cyclic shifts of coordinates is rigid in $\ell_q^N$, $1\le q\le 2$, i.e. it can not be well approximated by linear spaces of dimension essentially smaller than…

Let $G$ be a large (simple, unlabeled) dense graph on $n$ vertices. Suppose that we only know, or can estimate, the empirical distribution of the number of subgraphs $F$ that each vertex in $G$ participates in, for some fixed small graph…

The estimates of the uniform norm of the Chebyshev polynomial associated with a compact set $K$ consisting of a finite number of continua in the complex plane are established. These estimates are exact (up to a constant factor) in the case…

Fix an integer $n \geq 1$, and consider the set of all connected finite simple graphs on $n$ vertices. For each $G$ in this set, let $I(G)$ denote the edge ideal of $G$ in the polynomial ring $R = K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$. We initiate a study of…

We study partial and budgeted versions of the well studied connected dominating set problem. In the partial connected dominating set problem, we are given an undirected graph G = (V,E) and an integer n', and the goal is to find a minimum…

Let $P(D)$ be the differential operator induced by a polynomial $P$, and let ${U^{[P]}_2}$ be the class of multivariate periodic functions $f$ such that $\|P(D)(f)\|_2\leq 1$. The problem of computing the asymptotic order of the Kolmogorov…

Several nontrivial properties are shown for the mean square radius of gyration $R_K^2$ of ring polymers with a fixed knot type K. Through computer simulation, we discuss both finite-size and asymptotic behaviors of the gyration radius under…

We extend a theorem by Kleiner, stating that on a group with polynomial growth, the space of harmonic functions of polynomial of at most $k$ is finite dimensional, to the settings of locally compact groups equipped with measures with…
