We present an implementation of the algorithm for computing Groebner bases for operads due to the first author and A. Khoroshkin. We discuss the actual algorithms, the choices made for the implementation platform and the data…

Signature-based algorithms have become a standard approach for Gr\"obner basis computations for polynomial systems over fields, but how to extend these techniques to coefficients in general rings is not yet as well understood. In this…

We study the minimization of fixed-degree polynomials over the simplex. This problem is well-known to be NP-hard, as it contains the maximum stable set problem in graph theory as a special case. In this paper, we consider a rational…

Let $(f\_1,\dots, f\_s) \in \mathbb{Q}\_p [X\_1,\dots, X\_n]^s$ be a sequence of homogeneous polynomials with $p$-adic coefficients. Such system may happen, for example, in arithmetic geometry. Yet, since $\mathbb{Q}\_p$ is not an effective…

Many works show that node-level predictions of Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) are unrobust to small, often termed adversarial, changes to the graph structure. However, because manual inspection of a graph is difficult, it is unclear if the…

Signature-based algorithms are the latest and most efficient approach as of today to compute Gr\"obner bases for polynomial systems over fields. Recently, possible extensions of these techniques to general rings have attracted the attention…

In this paper, we continue the study of robust satisfiability of promise CSPs (PCSPs), initiated in (Brakensiek, Guruswami, Sandeep, STOC 2023 / Discrete Analysis 2025), and obtain the following results: For the PCSP 1-in-3-SAT vs NAE-SAT…

Motivated by better understanding the bideterminant (=product of minors) basis on the polynomial ring in $n \times m$ variables, we develop theory \& algorithms for Gr\"obner bases in not only algebras with straightening law (ASLs or Hodge…

We give algorithms for computing multiplier ideals using Gr\"obner bases in Weyl algebras. The algorithms are based on a newly introduced notion which is a variant of Budur--Musta\c{t}\v{a}--Saito's (generalized) Bernstein--Sato polynomial.…

We consider the question of approximating Max 2-CSP where each variable appears in at most $d$ constraints (but with possibly arbitrarily large alphabet). There is a simple $(\frac{d+1}{2})$-approximation algorithm for the problem. We prove…

Exploiting symmetry in Groebner basis computations is difficult when the symmetry takes the form of a group acting by automorphisms on monomials in finitely many variables. This is largely due to the fact that the group elements, being…

We first show a simple but striking result in bilevel optimization: unconstrained $C^\infty$ smooth bilevel programming is as hard as general extended-real-valued lower semicontinuous minimization. We then proceed to a worst-case analysis…

Given a sequence of related modules $M_n$ defined over a sequence of related polynomial rings, one may ask how to simultaneously compute a finite Gr\"obner basis for each $M_n$. Furthermore, one may ask how to simultaneously compute the…
