The extremal values of multivariate trigonometric polynomials are of interest in fields ranging from control theory to filter design, but finding the extremal values of such a polynomial is generally NP-Hard. In this paper, we develop…

We introduce a technique for recovering a sufficiently smooth function from its ray transform over a wide class of curves in a general region of Euclidean space. The method is based on a complexification of the underlying vector fields…

We introduce polystar bodies: compact starshaped sets whose gauge or radial functions are expressible by polynomials, enabling tractable computations, such as that of intersection bodies. We prove that polystar bodies are uniformly dense in…

We prove lower bounds on the error incurred when approximating any oscillating function using piecewise polynomial spaces. The estimates are explicit in the polynomial degree and have optimal dependence on the meshwidth and frequency when…

We consider the X-ray transform in a projective space over a finite field. It is well known (after E. Bolker) that this transform is injective. We formulate an analog of I.M. Gelfand's admissibility problem for the Radon transform, which…

We give a combinatorial upper bound for the gonality of a curve that is defined by a bivariate Laurent polynomial with given Newton polygon. We conjecture that this bound is generically attained, and provide proofs in a considerable number…

Polynomial meshes (called sometimes "norming sets") allow us to estimate the supremum norm of polynomials on a fixed compact set by the norm on its discrete subset. We give a general construction of polynomial weakly admissible meshes on…

We present a full pipeline for computing the medial axis transform of an arbitrary 2D shape. The instability of the medial axis transform is overcome by a pruning algorithm guided by a user-defined Hausdorff distance threshold. The stable…

The problem of expressing a specific polynomial as the determinant of a square matrix of affine-linear forms arises from algebraic geometry, optimisation, complexity theory, and scientific computing. Motivated by recent developments in this…
