We identify a sub-class of BQP that captures certain structural commonalities among many quantum algorithms including Shor's algorithms. This class does not contain all of BQP (e.g. Grover's algorithm does not fall into this class). Our…
Phase retrieval (PR) is a popular research topic in signal processing and machine learning. However, its performance degrades significantly when the measurements are corrupted by noise or outliers. To address this limitation, we propose a…

We study the following lesser-known low rank (LR) recovery problem: recover an $n \times q$ rank-$r$ matrix, $X^* =[x^*_1 , x^*_2, ..., x^*_q]$, with $r \ll \min(n,q)$, from $m$ independent linear projections of each of its $q$ columns,…
