We consider the matching augmentation problem (MAP), where a matching of a graph needs to be extended into a $2$-edge-connected spanning subgraph by adding the minimum number of edges to it. We present a polynomial-time algorithm with an…
Pole-swapping algorithms, which are generalizations of the QZ algorithm for the generalized eigenvalue problem, are studied. A new modular (and therefore more flexible) convergence theory that applies to all pole-swapping algorithms is…
We consider the problem of learning high dimensional polynomial transformations of Gaussians. Given samples of the form $p(x)$, where $x\sim N(0, \mathrm{Id}_r)$ is hidden and $p: \mathbb{R}^r \to \mathbb{R}^d$ is a function where every…
We introduce the nested $p$-center problem, which is a multi-period variant of the well-known $p$-center problem. The use of the nesting concept allows to obtain solutions, which are consistent over the considered time horizon, i.e.,…

Mixed integer linear programming (MILP) is a powerful representation often used to formulate decision-making problems under uncertainty. However, it lacks a natural mechanism to reason about objects, classes of objects, and relations.…
Finding a low-weight multiple (LWPM) of a given polynomial is very useful in the cryptanalysis of stream ciphers and arithmetic in finite fields. There is no known deterministic polynomial time complexity algorithm for solving this problem,…
Morse matchings capture the essential structural information of discrete Morse functions. We show that computing optimal Morse matchings is NP-hard and give an integer programming formulation for the problem. Then we present polyhedral…
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 unisolvent node set $P_{m,n} \subseteq \mathbb{R}^m$ of…

Let $P$ and $Q$ be simple polygons with $n$ vertices each. We wish to compute triangulations of $P$ and $Q$ that are combinatorially equivalent, if they exist. We consider two versions of the problem: if a triangulation of $P$ is given, we…
We consider the problem of reconstructing a signal from under-determined modulo observations (or measurements). This observation model is inspired by a (relatively) less well-known imaging mechanism called modulo imaging, which can be used…
In this paper we investigate weighted norm inequalities for the commutator of a fractional integral operator and multiplication by a function. In particular, we show that, for $\mu,\lambda\in A_{p,q}$ and $\alpha/n+1/q=1/p$, the norm $\|…

Zimin words are very special finite words which are closely related to the pattern-avoidability problem. This problem consists in testing if an instance of a given pattern with variables occurs in almost all words over any finite alphabet.…
In this paper, we address the problem of minimizing a convex function f over a convex set, with the extra constraint that some variables must be integer. This problem, even when f is a piecewise linear function, is NP-hard. We study an…
