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 show that the formalism of "Sum-Over-Path" (SOP), used for symbolically representing linear maps or quantum operators, together with a proper rewrite system, has a structure of dagger-compact PROP. Several consequences arise from this…

Generating overtaking trajectories in high-speed scenarios is typically addressed through hierarchical planning, which often suffers from local optima due to single initial solutions and low computational efficiency during numerical…

We investigate partial functions and computability theory from within a constructive, univalent type theory. The focus is on placing computability into a larger mathematical context, rather than on a complete development of computability…

We present a size-aware type system for first-order shapely function definitions. Here, a function definition is called shapely when the size of the result is determined exactly by a polynomial in the sizes of the arguments. Examples of…

We connect the study of pseudodeterministic algorithms to two major open problems about the structural complexity of $\mathsf{BPTIME}$: proving hierarchy theorems and showing the existence of complete problems. Our main contributions can be…

While projection-based reduced order models can reduce the dimension of full order solutions, the resulting reduced models may still contain terms that scale with the full order dimension. Hyper-reduction techniques are sampling-based…

With the rapid popularization of big data, the dichotomy between tractable and intractable problems in big data computing has been shifted. Sublinear time, rather than polynomial time, has recently been regarded as the new standard of…

We exhibit a sound and complete implicit-complexity formalism for functions feasibly computable by structural recursions over inductively defined data structures. Feasibly computable here means that the structural-recursive definition runs…

If P is a rational polytope in R^d, then $i_P(t):=#(tP\cap Z^d)$ is a quasi-polynomial in t, called the Ehrhart quasi-polynomial of P. A period of i_P(t) is D(P), the smallest positive integer D such that D*P has integral vertices. Often,…

Given a machine $U$, a $c$-short program for $x$ is a string $p$ such that $U(p)=x$ and the length of $p$ is bounded by $c$ + (the length of a shortest program for $x$). We show that for any standard Turing machine, it is possible to…
