We show that time complexity analysis of higher-order functional programs can be effectively reduced to an arguably simpler (although computationally equivalent) verification problem, namely checking first-order inequalities for validity.…
In this work, we show that for linearly constrained optimization problems the primal-dual hybrid gradient algorithm, analyzed by Chambolle and Pock [3], can be written as an entirely primal algorithm. This allows us to prove convergence of…
Logic Programming is a Turing complete language. As a consequence, designing algorithms that decide termination and non-termination of programs or decide inductive/coinductive soundness of formulae is a challenging task. For example, the…
To an $r$-dimensional subshift of finite type satisfying certain special properties we associate a $C^*$-algebra $\cA$. This algebra is a higher rank version of a Cuntz-Krieger algebra. In particular, it is simple, purely infinite and…
An example is given of a simple, unital C*-algebra which contains an infinite and a non-zero finite projection. This C*-algebra is also an example of an infinite simple C*-algebra which is not purely infinite. A corner of this C*-algebra is…
This paper develops a theory of $C^\infty$-superrings and their associated $C^\infty$-superschemes. We prove a key equivalence between the category of fair affine $C^\infty$-superschemes and the category of fair $C^\infty$-superrings. We…
Solving a polynomial system, or computing an associated Gr\"obner basis, has been a fundamental task in computational algebra. However, it is also known for its notorious doubly exponential time complexity in the number of variables in the…
In this work, we extend modular techniques for computing Gr\"obner bases involving rational coefficients to (two-sided) ideals in free algebras. We show that the infinite nature of Gr\"obner bases in this setting renders the classical…
Let $G$ be the fundamental group of a graph of finitely generated virtually free groups with virtually cyclic edge groups. We shaw that $G$ is cohomologically good if $G$ is residually finite. If $G$ is LERF, we prove that G splits…
The split feasibility problem is to find an element in the intersection of a closed set $C$ and the linear preimage of another closed set $D$, assuming the projections onto $C$ and $D$ are easy to compute. This class of problems arises…
Finite differences have been widely used in mathematical theory as well as in scientific and engineering computations. These concepts are constantly mentioned in calculus. Most frequently-used difference formulas provide excellent…
We generalize the notions of singularities and ordinary points from linear ordinary differential equations to D-finite systems. Ordinary points of a D-finite system are characterized in terms of its formal power series solutions. We also…
In the computation of a Gr"obner basis using Buchberger's algorithm, a key issue for improving the efficiency is to produce techniques for avoiding as many unnecessary critical pairs as possible. A good solution would be to avoid _all_…
The usual product $m\cdot n$ on $\mathbb{Z}$ can be viewed as the sum of $n$ terms of an arithmetic progression whose first term is $a_{1}=m-n+1$ and whose difference is $d=2$. Generalizing this idea, we define new similar product mappings,…
Let C be the category of finite-dimensional representations of a quantum affine algebra of simply-laced type. We introduce certain monoidal subcategories C_l (l integer) of C and we study their Grothendieck rings using cluster algebras.
Gr\"obner Bases and Cylindrical Algebraic Decomposition are generally thought of as two, rather different, methods of looking at systems of equations and, in the case of Cylindrical Algebraic Decomposition, inequalities. However, even for a…
Floating-point addition on a finite-precision machine is not associative, so not all mathematically equivalent summations are computationally equivalent. Making this assumption can lead to numerical error in computations. Proper ordering…
A popular approach in combinatorial optimization is to model problems as integer linear programs. Ideally, the relaxed linear program would have only integer solutions, which happens for instance when the constraint matrix is totally…
In this note we describe a method for finding prime numbers as fixed points of particularly simple sequences. Some basic calculations show that success rates for identifying primes this way are over 99.9%. In particular, it seems that the…
The $N$th power of a polynomial matrix of fixed size and degree can be computed by binary powering as fast as multiplying two polynomials of linear degree in~$N$. When Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) is available, the resulting complexity is…
