The least-squares estimator has achieved considerable success in learning linear dynamical systems from a single trajectory of length $T$. While it attains an optimal error of $\mathcal{O}(1/\sqrt{T})$ under independent zero-mean noise, it…

Sparse linear regression is one of the most basic questions in machine learning and statistics. Here, we are given as input a design matrix $X \in \mathbb{R}^{N \times d}$ and measurements or labels ${y} \in \mathbb{R}^N$ where ${y} = {X}…

A halfspace is a function $f\colon\{-1,1\}^n \rightarrow \{0,1\}$ of the form $f(x)=\mathbb{1}(a\cdot x>t)$, where $\sum_i a_i^2=1$. We show that if $f$ is a halfspace with $\mathbb{E}[f]=\epsilon$ and $a'=\max_i |a_i|$, then the degree-1…

Numerical solutions of differential equations are usually not smooth functions. However, they should resemble the smoothness of the corresponding real solutions in one way or another. In two of our recent papers, a kind of spacial…
