Oblivious low-distortion subspace embeddings are a crucial building block for numerical linear algebra problems. We show for any real $p, 1 \leq p < \infty$, given a matrix $M \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times d}$ with $n \gg d$, with constant…

We study the complexity of representing polynomials as a sum of products of polynomials in few variables. More precisely, we study representations of the form $$P = \sum_{i = 1}^T \prod_{j = 1}^d Q_{ij}$$ such that each $Q_{ij}$ is an…

For non-negative integers $k\leq n$, we prove a combinatorial identity for the $p$-binomial coefficient $\binom{n}{k}_p$ based on abelian p-groups. A purely combinatorial proof of this identity is not known. While proving this identity, for…
