We establish that the optimal bound for the size of the smallest integral solution of the Oppenheim Diophantine approximation problem $\abs{Q(x)-\xi}< \epsilon$ for a generic ternary form $Q$ is $\abs{x}\ll \epsilon^{-1}$. We also establish…

In this paper we associate to each multivariate polynomial $f$ that is homogeneous relative to a subset of its variables a series of polynomial families $P_\lambda (f)$ of $m$-tuples of homogeneous polynomials of equal degree such that the…

Proving complexity lower bounds remains a challenging task: we only know how to prove conditional uniform lower bounds and nonuniform lower bounds in restricted circuit models. Williams (STOC 2010) showed how to derive nonuniform lower…

This paper investigates the cost of solving systems of sparse polynomial equations by homotopy continuation. First, a space of systems of $n$-variate polynomial equations is specified through $n$ monomial bases. The natural locus for the…

It is already shown that a Boolean function for a NP-complete problem can be computed by a polynomial-sized circuit if its variables have enough number of automorphisms. Looking at this previous study from the different perspective gives us…

We prove general theorems for isoperimetric problems on lattices of the form ${\mathbb{Z}}^{k} \times {\mathbb{N}}^{d}$ which state that the perimeter of the optimal set is a monotonically increasing function of the volume under certain…

For a large prime $p$, and a polynomial $f$ over a finite field $F_p$ of $p$ elements, we obtain a lower bound on the size of the multiplicative subgroup of $F_p^*$ containing $H\ge 1$ consecutive values $f(x)$, $x = u+1, \ldots, u+H$,…

We obtain an explicit upper bound on the size of the coefficients of the elliptic modular polynomials $\Phi_N$ for any $N\geq1$. These polynomials vanish at pairs of $j$-invariants of elliptic curves linked by cyclic isogenies of degree…

We present a similarity transformation theory based on a polynomial form of a particle-hole pair excitation operator. In the weakly correlated limit, this polynomial becomes an exponential, leading to coupled cluster doubles. In the…

Let $P: \F \times \F \to \F$ be a polynomial of bounded degree over a finite field $\F$ of large characteristic. In this paper we establish the following dichotomy: either $P$ is a moderate asymmetric expander in the sense that $|P(A,B)|…

The paper addresses the calculation of correlation functions of permanental polynomials of matrices with random entries. By exploiting a convenient contour integral representation of the matrix permanent some explicit results are provided…

We conjecture that bounded generalised polynomial functions cannot be generated by finite automata, except for the trivial case when they are periodic away from a finite set. Using methods from ergodic theory, we are able to partially…

This paper introduces a framework to study discrete optimization problems which are parametric in the following sense: their constraint matrices correspond to matrices over the ring $\mathbb{Z}[x]$ of polynomials in one variable. We…

We prove tight lower bounds for the coefficients of the generalized $h$-vector of a rational polytope with a symmetry of prime order that is fixed--point--free on the boundary. These bounds generalize results of R.~Stanley and R.~Adin for…

We study the projections in vector spaces over finite fields. We prove finite fields analogues of the bounds on the dimensions of the exceptional sets for Euclidean projection mapping. We provide examples which do not have exceptional…

We present fully polynomial approximation schemes for a broad class of Holant problems with complex edge weights, which we call Holant polynomials. We transform these problems into partition functions of abstract combinatorial structures…

Polynomial Systems, or at least their algorithms, have the reputation of being doubly-exponential in the number of variables [Mayr and Mayer, 1982], [Davenport and Heintz, 1988]. Nevertheless, the Bezout bound tells us that that number of…

We establish new hardness results for decision tree optimization problems, adding to a line of work that dates back to Hyafil and Rivest in 1976. We prove, under randomized ETH, superpolynomial lower bounds for two basic problems: given an…

Marginal polytopes are important geometric objects that arise in statistics as the polytopes underlying hierarchical log-linear models. These polytopes can be used to answer geometric questions about these models, such as determining the…
