Sampling methods for graph signals in the graph spectral domain are presented. Though conventional sampling of graph signals can be regarded as sampling in the graph vertex domain, it does not have the desired characteristics in regard to…
This document consists of lecture notes for a graduate course, which focuses on the relations between Information Theory and Statistical Physics. The course is aimed at EE graduate students in the area of Communications and Information…
In this study, a spectral graph-theoretic grouping strategy for weakly supervised classification is introduced, where a limited number of labelled samples and a larger set of unlabelled samples are used to construct a larger annotated…
These are expanded notes of a two-semester course on Lie groups and Lie algebras given by the author at MIT.
Spectral graph theory is a captivating area of graph theory that employs the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of matrices associated with graphs to study them. In this paper, we present a collection of $20$ topics in spectral graph theory,…
In graph learning, maps between graphs and their subgraphs frequently arise. For instance, when coarsening or rewiring operations are present along the pipeline, one needs to keep track of the corresponding nodes between the original and…
I developed the lecture notes based on my ``Linear Model'' course at the University of California, Berkeley over the past ten years. This book provides an intermediate-level introduction to the linear model. It balances rigorous proofs and…
These notes are based on lectures at the PSSCMP/PiTP summer school that was held at Princeton University and the Institute for Advanced Study in July, 2015. They are devoted largely to topological phases of matter that can be understood in…
These notes gather recent results on robust statistical learning theory. The goal is to stress the main principles underlying the construction and theoretical analysis of these estimators rather than provide an exhaustive account on this…
We describe extensive computational experiments on spectral properties of random objects - random cubic graphs, random planar triangulations, and Voronoi and Delaunay diagrams of random (uniformly distributed) point sets on the sphere). We…
These are extended lecture notes of a PhD course that the author gave at the Universita degli studi di Torino in Italy in spring 2013.
This mini-course of 20 lectures aims at highlights of spectral theory for self-adjoint partial differential operators, with a heavy emphasis on problems with discrete spectrum. Part I: Discrete Spectrum (ODE preview, Laplacian - computable…
We consider the problem of training input-output recurrent neural networks (RNN) for sequence labeling tasks. We propose a novel spectral approach for learning the network parameters. It is based on decomposition of the cross-moment tensor…
Lecture notes on selected topics in the theory of gravitation.
These are lecture notes compiled for a short lecture series at the 2023 Condensed Matter Summer School at the University of Minnesota. They are designed to be conversational and fun, and not to take the place of review articles that do a…
These are lecture notes based on the first part of a course on 'Mathematical Data Science', which I taught to final year BSc students in the UK in 2019-2020. Topics include: concentration of measure in high dimensions; Gaussian random…
Studying the spectral theory of Schroedinger operator on metric graphs (also known as quantum graphs) is advantageous on its own as well as to demonstrate key concepts of general spectral theory. There are some excellent references for this…
We define a (pseudo-)distance between graphs based on the spectrum of the normalized Laplacian, which is easy to compute or to estimate numerically. It can therefore serve as a rough classification of large empirical graphs into families…

These are notes of a series of lectures on sieves, presented during the Special Activity in Analytic Number Theory, at the Max-Planck Institute for Mathematics in Bonn, during the period January--June 2002.
