We describe and analyze a numerical algorithm for computing the homology (Betti numbers and torsion coefficients) of semialgebraic sets given by Boolean formulas. The algorithm works in weak exponential time. This means that outside a…
Nowhere dense classes of graphs are very general classes of uniformly sparse graphs with several seemingly unrelated characterisations. From an algorithmic perspective, a characterisation of these classes in terms of uniform quasi-wideness,…
We study distributed training of deep learning models in time-constrained environments. We propose a new algorithm that periodically pulls workers towards the center variable computed as a weighted average of workers, where the weights are…
We describe an algorithm to compute Gr\"obner bases which combines F4-style reduction with the F5 criteria. Both F4 and F5 originate in the work of Jean-Charles Faug\`ere, who has successfully computed many Gr\"obner bases that were…
Gr\"obner bases can be used for computing the Hilbert basis of a numerical submonoid. By using these techniques, we provide an algorithm that calculates a basis of a subspace of a finite-dimensional vector space over a finite prime field…
In statistical physics, the multivariate hard-core model describes a system of particles, each of which receives its own fugacity. In graph-theoretic language, the partition function of the model translates to the multivariate independence…
In this paper, we investigate the solubility of homogeneous polynomial equations. The work of Browning, Le boudec, Sawin [3] shows that almost all homogeneous equations of degree $d\geq 4$ in $d+1$ or more variables satisfy the Hasse…
We study quantum algorithms for approximating Lasserre's hierarchy values for polynomial optimization. Let $f,g_1,\ldots,g_m$ be real polynomials in $n$ variables and $f^\star$ the infimum of $f$ over the semialgebraic set $S(g)=\{x:…

The issue of computing (co)homology generators of a cell complex is gaining a pivotal role in various branches of science. While this issue can be rigorously solved in polynomial time, it is still overly demanding for large scale problems.…
This paper is concerned with orthonormal systems in real intervals, given with zero Dirichlet boundary conditions. More specifically, our interest is in systems with a skew-symmetric differentiation matrix (this excludes orthonormal…
Root separation bounds play an important role as a complexity measure in understanding the behaviour of various algorithms in computational algebra, e.g., root isolation algorithms. A classic result in the univariate setting is the…
We study skew-orthogonal polynomials with respect to the weight function $\exp[-2V(x)]$, with $V(x)=\sum_{K=1}^{2d}(u_{K}/{K})x^{K}$, $u_{2d} > 0$, $d > 0$. A finite subsequence of such skew-orthogonal polynomials arising in the study of…

We study a natural generalization of the maximum weight many-to-one matching problem. We are given an undirected bipartite graph $G= (A \cup P, E)$ with weights on the edges in $E$, and with lower and upper quotas on the vertices in $P$. We…
For a graph $G$, let $Z(G,\lambda)$ be the partition function of the monomer-dimer system defined by $\sum_k m_k(G)\lambda^k$, where $m_k(G)$ is the number of matchings of size $k$ in $G$. We consider graphs of bounded degree and develop a…

Given polynomials $g$ and $f_1,\dots,f_p$, all in $\Bbbk[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ for some field $\Bbbk$, we consider the problem of computing the critical points of the restriction of $g$ to the variety defined by $f_1=\cdots=f_p=0$. These are…
Algorithmic computation in polynomial rings is a classical topic in mathematics. However, little attention has been given to the case of rings with an infinite number of variables until recently when theoretical efforts have made possible…
