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 $n \cdot \text{poly}(S)$…
Let $P \in \mathbb{Z} [X, Y]$ be a given square-free polynomial of total degree $d$ with integer coefficients of bitsize less than $\tau$, and let $V_{\mathbb{R}} (P) := \{ (x,y) \in \mathbb{R}^2, P (x,y) = 0 \}$ be the real planar…
A quantum algorithm for computing the determinant of a unitary matrix $U\in U(N)$ is given. The algorithm requires no preparation of eigenstates of $U$ and estimates the phase of the determinant to $t$ binary digits accuracy with…
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…
We present a polynomial time algorithm to compute any fixed number of the highest coefficients of the Ehrhart quasi-polynomial of a rational simplex. Previously such algorithms were known for integer simplices and for rational polytopes of…
This paper presents a novel algorithm for constructing a sum-of-squares (SOS) decomposition for positive semi-definite polynomials with rational coefficients. Unlike previous methods that typically yield SOS decompositions with…
We extend some results about shifted Schur functions to the general context of shifted Macdonald polynomials. We obtain two explicit formulas for these polynomials: a $q$-integral representation and a combinatorial formula. Our main tool is…
In this work, we study the computational complexity of quantum determinants, a $q$-deformation of matrix permanents: Given a complex number $q$ on the unit circle in the complex plane and an $n\times n$ matrix $X$, the $q$-permanent of $X$…
We propose a novel algorithm for finding square roots modulo p. Although there exists a direct formula to calculate square root of an element modulo prime (3 mod 4), but calculating square root modulo prime (1 mod 4) is non trivial.…
In this paper, we derive some formulae involving coefficients of polynomials which occur quite naturally in the study of restricted partitions. Our method involves a recently discovered sieve technique by Li and Wan (Sci. China. Math.…
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…
A specialized algorithm for quadratic optimization (QO, or, formerly, QP) with disjoint linear constraints is presented. In the considered class of problems, a subset of variables are subject to linear equality constraints, while variables…
We improve upon the running time for finding a point in a convex set given a separation oracle. In particular, given a separation oracle for a convex set $K\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ contained in a box of radius $R$, we show how to either find a…
We present new, faster pseudopolynomial time algorithms for the $k$-Subset Sum problem, defined as follows: given a set $Z$ of $n$ positive integers and $k$ targets $t_1, \ldots, t_k$, determine whether there exist $k$ disjoint subsets…
We consider equations involving the truncated laplacians and having lower order terms with singular potentials posed in punctured balls. We study both the principal eigenvalue problem and the problem of classification of solutions, in…
We present an algorithm for the generalized search problem (searching $k$ marked items among $N$ items) based on a continuous Hamiltonian and exploiting resonance. This resonant algorithm has the same time complexity $O(\sqrt{N/k})$ as the…
We develop a quantum-classical hybrid algorithm for function optimization that is particularly useful in the training of neural networks since it makes use of particular aspects of high-dimensional energy landscapes. Due to a recent…
