Lexically constrained decoding for machine translation has shown to be beneficial in previous studies. Unfortunately, constraints provided by users may contain mistakes in real-world situations. It is still an open question that how to…
The number of lattice points in $d$-dimensional hyperbolic or elliptic shells $\{m : a<Q[m]<b\}$, which are restricted to rescaled and growing domains $r\;\Omega$, is approximated by the volume. An effective error bound of order…
For $A \subseteq \{1,2,\ldots\}$, we consider $R(A) = \{a/a' : a,a' \in A\}$. If $A$ is the set of nonzero values assumed by a quadratic form, when is $R(A)$ dense in the $p$-adic numbers? We show that for a binary quadratic form $Q$,…
We show, by an explicit construction, that a mixture of univariate Gaussian densities with variance $1$ and means in $[-A,A]$ can have $\Omega(A^2)$ modes. This disproves a recent conjecture of Dytso, Yagli, Poor and Shamai \cite{DYPS20}…
The reversible reactions A+A<=>C and A+B<=>C are investigated. From the exact Langevin equations describing our model, we set up a systematic approximation scheme to compute the approach of the density of C particles to its equilibrium…
Let $F_1,\dotsc,F_R$ be quadratic forms with integer coefficients in $n$ variables. When $n\geq 9R$ and the variety $V(F_1,\dotsc,F_R)$ is a smooth complete intersection, we prove an asymptotic formula for the number of integer points in an…
Many astrophysical phenomena exhibit relativistic radiative flows. While velocities in excess of $v \sim 0.1c$ can occur in these systems, it has been common practice to approximate radiative transfer to $\cO(v/c)$. In the case of neutrino…
In this paper we develop tools for studying limit theorems by means of convexity. We establish bounds for the discrepancy in total variation between probability measures $\mu$ and $\nu$ such that $\nu$ is log-concave with respect to $\mu$.…
All wavelets can be associated to a multiresolution like structure, i.e. an incr easing sequence of subspaces of L^2(R). We consider the interaction of a wavel et and the translation operator in terms of which of the subspaces in this multi…
We make quantitative improvements to recently obtained results on the structure of the image of a large difference set under certain quadratic forms and other homogeneous polynomials. Previous proofs used deep results of Benoist-Quint on…
We present a method to obtain upper bounds on covering numbers. As applications of this method, we reprove and generalize results of Rogers on economically covering Euclidean $n$-space with translates of a convex body, or more generally,…
We develop techniques to convexify a set that is invariant under permutation and/or change of sign of variables and discuss applications of these results. First, we convexify the intersection of the unit ball of a permutation and…
This paper is concerned with the density of rational points of bounded height lying on a variety defined by an integral quadratic form Q. In the case of four variables, we give an estimate that does not depend on the coefficients of Q. For…
We extend the recent improvement of Roth's theorem on three term arithmetic progressions by Sanders to obtain similar results for the problem of locating non-trivial solutions to translation invariant linear equations in many variables in…
The resolution of linear system with positive integer variables is a basic yet difficult computational problem with many applications. We consider sparse uncorrelated random systems parametrised by the density $c$ and the ratio $\alpha=N/M$…
The encoding complexity of a general (en,ek) quasi-cyclic code is O[(e^2)(n-k)k]. This paper presents a novel low-complexity encoding algorithm for quasi-cyclic (QC) codes based on matrix transformation. First, a message vector is encoded…
We study perturbations of random dynamical systems whose associated transfer operators admit a uniform spectral gap. We provide a $k^{\text{th}}$-order approximation for the invariant density of the associated random dynamical system. We…
A classical result in additive combinatorics, which is a combination of Balog-Szemer\'edi-Gowers theorem and a variant of Freiman's theorem due to Ruzsa, says that if a subset $A$ of $\mathbb{F}_p^n$ contains at least $c |A|^3$ additive…
In this letter we give the equation of state of QCD at finite temperatures and densities. The recently proposed overlap improving multi-parameter reweighting technique is used to determine observables at nonvanishing chemical potentials.…
We provide some general conditions which ensure that a system of inequalities involving homogeneous polynomials with coefficients in a S-adic field has nontrivial S-integral solutions. The proofs are based on the strong approximation…
