The best deterministic unconditionally proven integer factorization algorithms have exponential running time complexities of O(N^(1/4)) arithmetic operations, and conditional on the Riemann hypothesis, there is a deterministic algorithm of…
Restricted Isometry Constants (RICs) provide a measure of how far from an isometry a matrix can be when acting on sparse vectors. This, and related quantities, provide a mechanism by which standard eigen-analysis can be applied to topics…
Compressed Sensing aims to capture attributes of a sparse signal using very few measurements. Cand\`{e}s and Tao showed that sparse reconstruction is possible if the sensing matrix acts as a near isometry on all $\boldsymbol{k}$-sparse…
Many inverse problems in signal processing deal with the robust estimation of unknown data from underdetermined linear observations. Low dimensional models, when combined with appropriate regularizers, have been shown to be efficient at…
We study extensions of the classic \emph{Line Cover} problem, which asks whether a set of $n$ points in the plane can be covered using $k$ lines. Line Cover is known to be NP-hard, and we focus on two natural generalizations. The first is…
We study the restricted isometry property of a matrix that is built from the discrete Fourier transform matrix by collecting rows indexed by quadratic residues. We find an $\epsilon>0$ such that, conditioned on a folklore conjecture in…
We introduce a remarkable new family of norms on the space of $n \times n$ complex matrices. These norms arise from the combinatorial properties of symmetric functions, and their construction and validation involve probability theory,…
In [1], a new construction called red-black hierarchy characterizing Laman graphs and an algorithm for computing it were presented. For a Laman graph G=(V,E) with n vertices it runs in O(n^2) time assuming that a partition of (V,E+e) into…
A class of transformations of $R_q$-matrices is introduced such that the $q\to 1$ limit gives explicit nonstandard $R_{h}$-matrices. The transformation matrix is singular itself at $q\to 1$ limit. For the transformed matrix, the…
We introduce a compressed suffix array representation that, on a text $T$ of length $n$ over an alphabet of size $\sigma$, can be built in $O(n)$ deterministic time, within $O(n\log\sigma)$ bits of working space, and counts the number of…
An arithmetical structure on the complete graph $K_n$ with $n$ vertices is given by a collection of $n$ positive integers with no common factor each of which divides their sum. We show that, for all positive integers $c$ less than a certain…
Given a real symmetric $n\times n$ matrix, the sepr-sequence $t_1\cdots t_n$ records information about the existence of principal minors of each order that are positive, negative, or zero. This paper extends the notion of the sepr-sequence…
The polynomial-time computability of the permanent over fields of characteristic 3 for k-semi-unitary matrices (i.e. square matrices such that the differences of their Gram matrices and the corresponding identity matrices are of rank k) in…
We show that for every $k\in\mathbb{N}$ and $\varepsilon>0$, for large enough alphabet $R$, given a $k$-CSP with alphabet size $R$, it is NP-hard to distinguish between the case that there is an assignment satisfying at least…
A set of $N$ permutations of $\{1,2,\dots,v\}$ is $(N,v,t)$-suitable if each symbol precedes each subset of $t-1$ others in at least one permutation. The central problems are to determine the smallest $N$ for which such a set exists for…
We construct orthogonal arrays OA$_{\lambda} (k,n)$ (of strength two) having a row that is repeated $m$ times, where $m$ is as large as possible. In particular, we consider OAs where the ratio $m / \lambda$ is as large as possible; these…
In this manuscript, we introduce a family of parametrized non-homogeneous linear complex differential equations on $[1,\infty)$, depending on a complex parameter. We identify a "Rotation number hypothesis" on the non-homogeneous term, which…
We split the program of explicit descent of elliptic curves into two parts. For $n=3$ and $n=5,$ we first display a model for the universal elliptic curve $E$ with full level $n$ structure and describe the map of rational points of $E$ to…
In the beautifully simple-to-state problem of trace reconstruction, the goal is to reconstruct an unknown binary string $x$ given random "traces" of $x$ where each trace is generated by deleting each coordinate of $x$ independently with…
A sign pattern is a matrix whose entries are from the set $\{+,-, 0\}$. A square sign pattern $A$ is called sign $k$-potent if $k$ is the smallest positive integer for which $A^{k+1}=A$, and for $k=1$, $A$ is called sign idempotent. In…
