We consider the problem of exact low-rank matrix completion from a geometric viewpoint: given a partially filled matrix M, we keep the positions of specified and unspecified entries fixed, and study how the minimal completion rank depends…
We investigate special cases of the quadratic minimum spanning tree problem (QMSTP) on a graph $G=(V,E)$ that can be solved as a linear minimum spanning tree problem. Characterization of such problems on graphs with special properties are…
Positive semidefinite Hermitian matrices that are not fully specified can be completed provided their underlying graph is chordal. If the matrix is positive definite the completion can be uniquely characterized as the matrix that maximizes…
We initiate a general study of what we call orientation completion problems. For a fixed class C of oriented graphs, the orientation completion problem asks whether a given partially oriented graph P can be completed to an oriented graph in…
The minimum completion (fill-in) problem is defined as follows: Given a graph family $\mathcal{F}$ (more generally, a property $\Pi$) and a graph $G$, the completion problem asks for the minimum number of non-edges needed to be added to $G$…
This paper studies the problem of deterministic rank-one matrix completion. It is known that the simplest semidefinite programming relaxation, involving minimization of the nuclear norm, does not in general return the solution for this…
Given a finite simple graph $G$, an odd cover of $G$ is a collection of complete bipartite graphs, or bicliques, in which each edge of $G$ appears in an odd number of bicliques and each non-edge of $G$ appears in an even number of…
Suppose that $\dot{G}$ is an unbalanced signed graph of order $n$ with $e(\dot{G})$ edges. Let $\rho(\dot{G})$ be the spectral radius of $\dot{G}$, and $\mathcal{K}_4^-$ be the set of the unbalanced $K_4$. In this paper, we prove that if…
The index of a signed graph is the largest eigenvalue of its adjacency matrix. For positive integers $n$ and $m\le n^2/4$, we determine the maximal index of complete signed graphs with $n$ vertices and $m$ negative edges. This settles (the…
We consider the low rank matrix completion problem over finite fields. This problem has been extensively studied in the domain of real/complex numbers, however, to the best of authors' knowledge, there exists merely one efficient algorithm…
Most of the existing works on provable guarantees for low-rank matrix completion algorithms rely on some unrealistic assumptions such that matrix entries are sampled randomly or the sampling pattern has a specific structure. In this work,…
Matrix Completion is the problem of recovering an unknown real-valued low-rank matrix from a subsample of its entries. Important recent results show that the problem can be solved efficiently under the assumption that the unknown matrix is…
Semidefinite programming (SDP) provides a fundamental framework for studying properties of sum-of-squares (sos) representations of nonnegative polynomials. In this paper we study the quartic forms GF = (|x|^4 + F(x))/2 associated with…
The spectra of signed matrices have played a fundamental role in social sciences, graph theory, and control theory. In this work, we investigate the computational problems of identifying symmetric signings of matrices with natural spectral…
We consider the symmetric Toeplitz matrix completion problem, whose matrix under consideration possesses specific row and column structures. This problem, which has wide application in diverse areas, is well-known to be computationally…
We show NP-completeness for several planar variants of the monotone satisfiability problem with bounded variable appearances. With one exception the presented variants have an associated bipartite graph where the vertex degree is bounded by…
We present a necessary and sufficient condition for a graph of odd-girth $2k+1$ to bound the class of $K_4$-minor-free graphs of odd-girth (at least) $2k+1$, that is, to admit a homomorphism from any such $K_4$-minor-free graph. This yields…
In this paper, we show that the low rank matrix completion problem can be reduced to the problem of finding the rank of a certain tensor.
This paper considers the interplay between semidefinite programming, matrix rank, and graph coloring. Karger, Motwani, and Sudan \cite{KMS98} give a vector program for which a coloring of the graph can be encoded as a semidefinite matrix of…
The Minimum Fill-in problem is to decide if a graph can be triangulated by adding at most k edges. Kaplan, Shamir, and Tarjan [FOCS 1994] have shown that the problem is solvable in time O(2^(O(k)) + k2 * nm) on graphs with n vertices and m…
