We examine the linear complexity and the autocorrelation properties of new quaternary cyclotomic sequences of period 2p. The sequences are constructed via the cyclotomic classes of order four.
In analogy with the regularity lemma of Szemer\'edi, regularity lemmas for polynomials shown by Green and Tao (Contrib. Discrete Math. 2009) and by Kaufman and Lovett (FOCS 2008) modify a given collection of polynomials \calF =…
Let $p$ be an odd prime. In this paper we investigate quadratic residues modulo $p$ and related permutations, congruences and identities. If $a_1<\ldots<a_{(p-1)/2}$ are all the quadratic residues modulo $p$ among $1,\ldots,p-1$, then the…
We build a new theory for analyzing the coefficients of any cyclotomic polynomial by considering it as a gcd of simpler polynomials. Using this theory, we generalize a result known as periodicity and provide two new families of flat…
We study the improper learning of multi-layer neural networks. Suppose that the neural network to be learned has $k$ hidden layers and that the $\ell_1$-norm of the incoming weights of any neuron is bounded by $L$. We present a kernel-based…
We reveal a complexity chasm, separating the trinomial and tetranomial cases, for solving univariate sparse polynomial equations over certain local fields. First, for any fixed field $K\in\{\mathbb{Q}_2,\mathbb{Q}_3,\mathbb{Q}_5,\ldots\}$,…
In this survey we summarize properties of pseudorandomness and non-randomness of some number-theoretic sequences and present results on their behaviour under the following measures of pseudorandomness: balance, linear complexity,…
Linear predictors form a rich class of hypotheses used in a variety of learning algorithms. We present a tight analysis of the empirical Rademacher complexity of the family of linear hypothesis classes with weight vectors bounded in…
In this paper, we study the periodicity structure of finite field linear recurring sequences whose period is not necessarily maximal and determine necessary and sufficient conditions for the characteristic polynomial~\(f\) to have exactly…
Linearized polynomials over finite fields have been intensively studied over the last several decades. Interesting new applications of linearized polynomials to coding theory and finite geometry have been also highlighted in recent years.…
We study variants of the mean problem under the $p$-Dynamic Time Warping ($p$-DTW) distance, a popular and robust distance measure for sequential data. In our setting we are given a set of finite point sequences over an arbitrary metric…
We study here several variants of the covariates fine balance problem where we generalize some of these problems and introduce a number of others. We present here a comprehensive complexity study of the covariates problems providing…
We consider the problem of approximating certain combinatorial polynomials. First, we consider the problem of approximating the Tutte polynomial of a binary matroid with parameters q>= 2 and gamma. (Relative to the classical (x,y)…
For a permutation $\pi: [K]\rightarrow [K]$, a sequence $f: \{1,2,\cdots, n\}\rightarrow \mathbb R$ contains a $\pi$-pattern of size $K$, if there is a sequence of indices $(i_1, i_2, \cdots, i_K)$ ($i_1<i_2<\cdots<i_K$), satisfying that…
Polynomially-recursive sequences generally have a periodic behavior mod $m$. In this paper, we analyze the period mod $m$ of a second order polynomially-recursive sequence. The problem originally comes from an enumeration of avoiding…
It is well-known that if a subset A of a finite Abelian group G satisfies a quasirandomness property called uniformity of degree k, then it contains roughly the expected number of arithmetic progressions of length k, that is, the number of…
This technical note extends recent results on the computational complexity of globally minimizing the error of piecewise-affine models to the related problem of minimizing the error of switching linear regression models. In particular, we…
In this paper, a computationally simple and explicit method of constructing recursive sequence of primitive polynomials of degree $n2^k (k = 1, 2, 3,\ldots)$ over $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ is given.
We investigate $k$-superirreducible polynomials, by which we mean irreducible polynomials that remain irreducible under any polynomial substitution of positive degree at most $k$. Let $\mathbb F$ be a finite field of characteristic $p$. We…
This paper is our third step towards developing a theory of testing monomials in multivariate polynomials and concentrates on two problems: (1) How to compute the coefficients of multilinear monomials; and (2) how to find a maximum…
