We consider the optimization problem of minimizing a polynomial f(x) subject to polynomial constraints h(x)=0, g(x)>=0. Lasserre's hierarchy is a sequence of sum of squares relaxations for finding the global minimum. Let K be the feasible…

A method to solve the problem f(x) = 0 efficiently on any n-dimensional domain Omega under very broad hypoteses is proposed. The position of the root of f, assumed unique, is found by computing the center of mass of an Omega-shaped object…

We give a new probabilistic algorithm for interpolating a "sparse" polynomial f given by a straight-line program. Our algorithm constructs an approximation f* of f, such that their difference probably has at most half the number of terms of…

In continuation to our recent work on noncommutative polynomial factorization, we consider the factorization problem for matrices of polynomials and show the following results. (1) Given as input a full rank $d\times d$ matrix $M$ whose…

Consider the problem of determining whether there exists a spanning hypertree in a given k-uniform hypergraph. This problem is trivially in P for k=2, and is NP-complete for k>= 4, whereas for k=3, there exists a polynomial-time algorithm…

In this paper we prove that the property of being scattered for a $\mathbb{F}_q$-linearized polynomial of small $q$-degree over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$ is unstable, in the sense that, whenever the corresponding linear set has at…

A theory of numerical path-following in toric varieties was suggested in two previous papers. The motivation is solving systems of polynomials with real or complex coefficients. When those polynomials are not assumed 'dense', solving them…

We improve and simplify the result of the part 4 of "Counting curves and their projections" (Joachim von zur Gathen, Marek Karpinski, Igor Shparlinski) by showing that counting roots of a sparse polynomial over $\mathbb{F}_{2^n}$ is #P- and…

Triangular factorizations are an important tool for solving integral equations and partial differential equations with hierarchical matrices ($\mathcal{H}$-matrices). Experiments show that using an $\mathcal{H}$-matrix LR factorization to…
