This paper establishes a variant of Stewart's theorem (Theorem~6.4 of Stewart, {\em SIAM Rev.}, 15:727--764, 1973) for the singular subspaces associated with the SVD of a matrix subject to perturbations. Stewart's original version uses both…
We prove optimal convergence estimates for eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a class of singular/stiff perturbed problems. Our profs are constructive in nature and use (elementary) techniques which are of current interest in computational…
Shape-constrained inference has wide applicability in bioassay, medicine, economics, risk assessment, and many other fields. Although there has been a large amount of work on monotone-constrained univariate curve estimation, multivariate…
In this work we collect and compare to each other many different numerical methods for regularized regression problem and for the problem of projection on a hyperplane. Such problems arise, for example, as a subproblem of demand matrix…

A central challenge in machine learning is to understand how noise or measurement errors affect low-rank approximations, particularly in the spectral norm. This question is especially important in differentially private low-rank…
This paper presents a mixed basis approach for Laplace eigenvalue problems, which treats the boundary as a perturbation of the free Laplace operator. The method separates the boundary from the volume via a generic function that can be…
Spectral estimators are fundamental in lowrank matrix models and arise throughout machine learning and statistics, with applications including network analysis, matrix completion and PCA. These estimators aim to recover the leading…
We propose a new approach to linear ill-posed inverse problems. Our algorithm alternates between enforcing two constraints: the measurements and the statistical correlation structure in some transformed space. We use a non-linear multiscale…
Line spectral estimation is a classical signal processing problem that aims to estimate the line spectra from their signal which is contaminated by deterministic or random noise. Despite a large body of research on this subject, the…
The work is devoted to the study of Laplace operator when the potential is a singular generalized function and plays the role of a singular perturbation of a Laplace operator. Abstract theorem obtained earlier by the authors B.N. Biyarov…
We consider optimal control problems for discrete-time random dynamical systems, finding unique perturbations that provoke maximal responses of statistical properties of the system. We treat systems whose transfer operator has an $L^2$…
