We study the spectral implications of re-weighting a graph by the $\ell_\infty$-Lewis weights of its edges. Our main motivation is the ER-Minimization problem (Saberi et al., SIAM'08): Given an undirected graph $G$, the goal is to find…

We consider the problem of linear regression where the $\ell_2^n$ norm loss (i.e., the usual least squares loss) is replaced by the $\ell_p^n$ norm. We show how to solve such problems up to machine precision in $O^*(n^{|1/2 - 1/p|})$…

Matrix completion is a classical problem that has received recurring interest across a wide range of fields. In this paper, we revisit this problem in an ultra-sparse sampling regime, where each entry of an unknown, $n\times d$ matrix $M$…
To recover a sparse signal from an underdetermined system, we often solve a constrained L1-norm minimization problem. In many cases, the signal sparsity and the recovery performance can be further improved by replacing the L1 norm with a…
