We show that if a closed, oriented 3-manifold M is promised to be homeomorphic to a lens space L(n,k) with n and k unknown, then we can compute both n and k in polynomial time in the size of the triangulation of M. The tricky part is the…

We provide an efficient algorithm for the classical problem, going back to Galton, Pearson, and Fisher, of estimating, with arbitrary accuracy the parameters of a multivariate normal distribution from truncated samples. Truncated samples…

Suppose a language $L$ can be decided by a bounded-error randomized algorithm that runs in space $S$ and time $n \cdot \text{poly}(S)$. We give a randomized algorithm for $L$ that still runs in space $O(S)$ and time $n \cdot \text{poly}(S)$…

For a fixed $k$, this study considers $k$-partition minimization of submodular system $(V, f)$ with a finite set $V$ and symmetric submodular function $f: 2^{V} \mapsto \mathbb{R}$. Our algorithm uses the Queyranne's (1998) algorithm for…

Let $\mathrm{R}$ be a real closed field and $\mathrm{D} \subset \mathrm{R}$ an ordered domain. We give an algorithm that takes as input a polynomial $Q \in \mathrm{D}[X_1,\ldots,X_k]$, and computes a description of a roadmap of the set of…

In this paper we study the truncation $\nu_q$ of a valuation $\nu$ on a polynomial $q$. It is known that when $q$ is a key polynomial, then $\nu_q$ is a valuation. It is also known that the converse does not hold. We show that when $q$ is a…
