We consider the problem of recovering (that is, interpolating) and identity testing of a "hidden" monic polynomial $f$, given an oracle access to $f(x)^e$ for $x\in{\mathbb F_q}$ (extension fields access is not permitted). The naive…
Consider a sparse multivariate polynomial f with integer coefficients. Assume that f is represented as a "modular black box polynomial", e.g. via an algorithm to evaluate f at arbitrary integer points, modulo arbitrary positive integers.…
Motivated by a recently introduced HIMMO key distribution scheme, we consider a modification of the noisy polynomial interpolation problem of recovering an unknown polynomial $f(X) \in Z[X]$ from approximate values of the residues of $f(t)$…
We consider the {\it noisy polynomial interpolation problem\/} of recovering an unknown $s$-sparse polynomial $f(X)$ over the ring $\mathbb Z_{p^k}$ of residues modulo $p^k$, where $p$ is a small prime and $k$ is a large integer parameter,…
We show that any submodular minimization (SM) problem defined on a linear constraint set with constraints having up to two variables per inequality, are 2-approximable in polynomial time. If the constraints are monotone (the two variables…
We consider the problem of identity testing and recovering (that is, interpolating) of a "hidden" monic polynomials $f$, given an oracle access to $f(x)^e$ for $x\in\mathbb F_q$, where $\mathbb F_q$ is the finite field of $q$ elements and…

In the sparse polynomial multiplication problem, one is asked to multiply two sparse polynomials f and g in time that is proportional to the size of the input plus the size of the output. The polynomials are given via lists of their…
For $m,n \in \mathbb{N}$, $m\geq 1$ and a given function $f : \mathbb{R}^m\longrightarrow \mathbb{R}$ the polynomial interpolation problem (PIP) is to determine a \emph{generic node set} $P \subseteq \mathbb{R}^m$ and the coefficients of…
This paper studies the polynomial optimization problem whose feasible set is a union of several basic closed semialgebraic sets. We propose a unified hierarchy of Moment-SOS relaxations to solve it globally. Under some assumptions, we prove…
We show that the effective factorization of Ore polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_q(t)$ is still an open problem. This is so because the known algorithm in [1] presents two gaps, and therefore it does not cover all the examples. We amend one of…
Multi-objective unconstrained combinatorial optimization problems (MUCO) are in general hard to solve, i.e., the corresponding decision problem is NP-hard and the outcome set is intractable. In this paper we explore special cases of MUCO…
Let $\mathbf{f}=(f\_1,\ldots,f\_m)$ and $\mathbf{g}=(g\_1,\ldots,g\_m)$ be two sets of $m\geq 1$ nonlinear polynomials over $\mathbb{K}[x\_1,\ldots,x\_n]$ ($\mathbb{K}$ being a field). We consider the computational problem of finding -- if…
Let p be a prime, and let M_p(n) denote the bit complexity of multiplying two polynomials in F_p[X] of degree less than n. For n large compared to p, we establish the bound M_p(n) = O(n log n 8^(log^* n) log p), where log^* is the iterated…
We consider the problem of finding a sparse multiple of a polynomial. Given f in F[x] of degree d over a field F, and a desired sparsity t, our goal is to determine if there exists a multiple h in F[x] of f such that h has at most t…
We present two new algorithms for the computation of the q-integer linear decomposition of a multivariate polynomial. Such a decomposition is essential for the treatment of q-hypergeometric symbolic summation via creative telescoping and…
We consider quantum interpolation of polynomials. We imagine a quantum computer with black-box access to input/output pairs (x_i, f(x_i)), where f is a degree-d polynomial, and we wish to compute f(0). We give asymptotically tight quantum…
We consider a certain mixed polynomial which is an extended Lens equation $L_{n,m}=\bar z^m-p(z)/q(z)$ with $\text{degree}\, q=n$, $\text{degree}\, p<n$ whose numerator is a mixed polynomial of degree $(n+m;n,m)$. Then we consider its…

The usual univariate interpolation problem of finding a monic polynomial f of degree n that interpolates n given values is well understood. This paper studies a variant where f is required to be composite, say, a composition of two…
