We provide polynomial upper bounds for the minimal sizes of distal cell decompositions in several kinds of distal structures, particularly weakly $o$-minimal and $P$-minimal structures. The bound in general weakly $o$-minimal structures…
The presented analysis determines several new bounds on the roots of the equation $a_n x^n + a_{n-1} x^{n-1} + \cdots + a_0 = 0$ (with $a_n > 0$). All proposed new bounds are lower than the Cauchy bound max$\{1, \sum_{j=0}^{n-1} |a_j/a_n|…

[Inserted by J. Maurice Rojas] We give a formula for the number of complex roots of a generic system of two polynomial equations in two unknowns. The formula is completely combinatorial, ultimately depending just on the convex hull of the…
We study the problem of approximating all-pair distances in a weighted undirected graph with differential privacy, introduced by Sealfon [Sea16]. Given a publicly known undirected graph, we treat the weights of edges as sensitive…

Let $A(n, d)$ denote the maximum size of a binary code of length $n$ and minimum Hamming distance $d$. Studying $A(n, d)$, including efforts to determine it as well to derive bounds on $A(n, d)$ for large $n$'s, is one of the most…
Let f be a univariate polynomial with real coefficients, f in R[X]. Subdivision algorithms based on algebraic techniques (e.g., Sturm or Descartes methods) are widely used for isolating the real roots of f in a given interval. In this…
In this paper, we extend the Generalized Finite Difference Method (GFDM) on unknown compact submanifolds of the Euclidean domain, identified by randomly sampled data that (almost surely) lie on the interior of the manifolds. Theoretically,…
Isolating the real roots of univariate polynomials is a fundamental problem in symbolic computation and it is arguably one of the most important problems in computational mathematics. The problem has a long history decorated with numerous…
Let $p(x)$ be an integer polynomial with $m\ge 2$ distinct roots $\rho_1,\ldots,\rho_m$ whose multiplicities are $\boldsymbol{\mu}=(\mu_1,\ldots,\mu_m)$. We define the D-plus discriminant of $p(x)$ to be $D^+(p):= \prod_{1\le i<j\le…
Depth separation results propose a possible theoretical explanation for the benefits of deep neural networks over shallower architectures, establishing that the former possess superior approximation capabilities. However, there are no known…

Polynomial optimization problems often arise in sequences indexed by dimension, and it is of interest to compute bounds on the optimal values of all problems in the sequence. Examples include certifying inequalities between symmetric…
We consider the problem of deriving upper bounds on the parameters of sum-rank-metric codes, with focus on their dimension and block length. The sum-rank metric is a combination of the Hamming and the rank metric, and most of the available…
