One of my recent papers transforms an NP-Complete problem into the question of whether or not a feasible real solution exists to some Linear Program. The unique feature of this Linear Program is that though there is no explicit bound on the…

We study the existence of polynomial kernels for the problem of deciding feasibility of integer linear programs (ILPs), and for finding good solutions for covering and packing ILPs. Our main results are as follows: First, we show that the…

The problem of finding independent components of an indexed object (e.g., a tensor) with arbitrary number of indices and arbitrary linear symmetries is discussed. It is proved that the number of independent components $f(k)$ is a polynomial…

We consider eigenvalue condition numbers and backward errors for a class of symmetric nonlinear eigenvalue problems with eigenvector nonlinearities. For both of these quantities, we derive explicit and computable expressions that can be…

Theories of classification distinguish classes with some good structure theorem from those for which none is possible. Some classes (dense linear orders, for instance) are non-classifiable in general, but are classifiable when we consider…

This paper is concerned with computations of a few smaller eigenvalues (in absolute value) of a large extremely ill-conditioned matrix. It is shown that smaller eigenvalues can be accurately computed for a diagonally dominant matrix or a…

A positive function (conductivity) on the edges of a graph induces the Dirichlet-to- Neumann map between boundary values of harmonic functions. The inverse conductivity problem is to find the conductivity from the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map.…

This paper is concerned with the inverse problem of constructing a symmetric nonnegative matrix from realizable spectrum. We reformulate the inverse problem as an underdetermined nonlinear matrix equation over a Riemannian product manifold.…

There have been some effective tools for solving (constant/parametric) semi-algebraic systems in Maple's library RegularChains since Maple 13. By using the functions of the library, e.g., RealRootClassfication, one can prove and discover…

Numerical homogenization, i.e. the finite-dimensional approximation of solution spaces of PDEs with arbitrary rough coefficients, requires the identification of accurate basis elements. These basis elements are oftentimes found after a…

A sequence $a=(a_n)_{n=1}^\infty$ of non-negative integers is called realizable if there is a self-map $T:X\to X$ on a set $X$ such that $a_n$ is equal to the number of periodic points of $T$ in $X$ of (not necessarily exact) period $n$,…

It is known that for a totally positive (TP) matrix, the eigenvalues are positive and distinct and the eigenvector associated with the smallest eigenvalue is totally nonzero and has an alternating sign pattern. Here, a certain weakening of…

Let n be a positive integer, and let R be a finitely presented (but not necessarily finite dimensional) associative algebra over a computable field. We examine algorithmic tests for deciding (1) if every n-dimensional representation of R is…

The purpose of this note is to attach a name to a natural class of combinatorial problems and to point out that this class includes many important special cases. We also show that a simple problem of placing nonoverlapping labels on a…

A matrix $P$ is said to be a nontrivial generalized reflection matrix over the real quaternion algebra $\mathbb{H}$ if $P^{\ast }=P\neq I$ and $P^{2}=I$ where $\ast$ means conjugate and transpose. We say that $A\in\mathbb{H}^{n\times n}$ is…

All inverse problems rely on data to recover unknown parameters, yet not all data are equally informative. This raises the central question of data selection. A distinctive challenge in PDE-based inverse problems is their inherently…
