The Newton-Raphson (N-R) method is useful to find the roots of a polynomial of degree n. However, this method is limited since it diverges for the case in which polynomials only have complex roots if a real initial condition is taken. In…
We present a new algorithm for finding isolated zeros of a system of real-valued functions in a bounded interval in $\mathbb{R}^n$. It uses the Chebyshev proxy method combined with a mixture of subdivision, reduction methods, and…
A novel very simple method for finding roots of polynomials over finite fields has been proposed. The essence of the proposed method is to search the roots via nested cycles over the subgroups of the multiplicative group of the Galois…
Let F be a finite set of graphs. In the F-Deletion problem, we are given an n-vertex graph G and an integer k as input, and asked whether at most k vertices can be deleted from G such that the resulting graph does not contain a graph from F…

Solitude verification is arguably one of the simplest fundamental problems in distributed computing, where the goal is to verify that there is a unique contender in a network. This paper devises a quantum algorithm that exactly solves the…
A recent trend in parameterized algorithms is the application of polytope tools (specifically, LP-branching) to FPT algorithms (e.g., Cygan et al., 2011; Narayanaswamy et al., 2012). However, although interesting results have been achieved,…
The three-in-a-tree problem asks for an induced tree of the input graph containing three mandatory vertices. In 2006, Chudnovsky and Seymour [Combinatorica, 2010] presented the first polynomial time algorithm for this problem, which has…
We consider the problem of partitioning the edges of a graph into as few paths as possible. This is a~subject of the classic conjecture of Gallai and a recurring topic in combinatorics. Regarding the complexity of partitioning a graph…
We give a separation bound for the complex roots of a trinomial $f \in \mathbb{Z}[X]$. The logarithm of the inverse of our separation bound is polynomial in the size of the sparse encoding of $f$; in particular, it is polynomial in $\log…
We consider global problems, i.e. problems that take at least diameter time, even when the bandwidth is not restricted. We show that all problems considered admit efficient solutions in low-treewidth graphs. By ``efficient'' we mean that…
In this article, we present an $O(N \log N)$ rapidly convergent algorithm for the numerical approximation of the convolution integral with radially symmetric weakly singular kernels and compactly supported densities. To achieve the reduced…

We study the problem of approximating all-pair distances in a weighted undirected graph with differential privacy, introduced by Sealfon [Sea16]. Given a publicly known undirected graph, we treat the weights of edges as sensitive…
We give a new algorithm for performing the distinct-degree factorization of a polynomial P(x) over GF(2), using a multi-level blocking strategy. The coarsest level of blocking replaces GCD computations by multiplications, as suggested by…
We propose an algorithm for quickly evaluating polynomials. It pre-conditions a complex polynomial $P$ of degree $d$ in time $O(d\log d)$, with a low multiplicative constant independent of the precision. Subsequent evaluations of $P$…
