In 1968, Atkinson proved the existence of functions that satisfy all S-matrix axioms in four spacetime dimensions. His proof is constructive and to our knowledge it is the only result of this type. Remarkably, the methods to construct such…

We present a new algorithm for fast matrix multiplication using tensor decompositions which have special features. Thanks to these features we obtain exponents lower than what the rank of the tensor decomposition suggests. In particular for…
In 1989 we proposed to employ Vandermonde and Hankel multipliers to transform into each other the matrix structures of Toeplitz, Hankel, Vandermonde and Cauchy types as a means of extending any successful algorithm for the inversion of…
This paper deals with circulant matrices. It is shown that a circulant matrix can be multiplied by a vector in time O(n log(n)) in a ring with roots of unity without making use of an FFT algorithm. With our algorithm we achieve a speedup of…

Fast matrix-by-matrix multiplication (hereafter MM) is a highly recognized research subject. The record upper bound 3 of 1968 on the exponent of the complexity MM decreased below 2.38 by 1987, applies to celebrated problems in many areas of…
In [1], a new construction called red-black hierarchy characterizing Laman graphs and an algorithm for computing it were presented. For a Laman graph G=(V,E) with n vertices it runs in O(n^2) time assuming that a partition of (V,E+e) into…
We present the first linear time algorithm to construct the $2n$-bit version of the Lyndon array for a string of length $n$ using only $o(n)$ bits of working space. A simpler variant of this algorithm computes the plain ($n\lg n$-bit)…
Consider an invertible n \times n matrix over some field. The Gauss-Jordan elimination reduces this matrix to the identity matrix using at most n^2 row operations and in general that many operations might be needed. In [1] the authors…
This note presents fast Cholesky/LU/QR decomposition algorithms with $O(n^{2.529})$ time complexity when using the fastest known matrix multiplication. The algorithms have potential application, since a quickly made implementation using…
Vassilevska and Williams (STOC 2009) showed how to count simple paths on $k$ vertices and matchings on $k/2$ edges in an $n$-vertex graph in time $n^{k/2+O(1)}$. In the same year, two different algorithms with the same runtime were given by…
In this paper, we present an improved algorithm for the All Pairs Non-decreasing Paths (APNP) problem on weighted simple digraphs, which has running time $\tilde{O}(n^{\frac{3 + \omega}{2}}) = \tilde{O}(n^{2.686})$. Here $n$ is the number…
Permutation patterns and pattern avoidance have been intensively studied in combinatorics and computer science, going back at least to the seminal work of Knuth on stack-sorting (1968). Perhaps the most natural algorithmic question in this…
We study matrix multiplication in the low-bandwidth model: There are $n$ computers, and we need to compute the product of two $n \times n$ matrices. Initially computer $i$ knows row $i$ of each input matrix. In one communication round each…
We observe that any $T(n)$ time algorithm (quantum or classical) for several central linear algebraic problems, such as computing $\det(A)$, $tr(A^3)$, or $tr(A^{-1})$ for an $n \times n$ integer matrix $A$, yields a $O(T(n)) + \tilde…
For matrices with displacement structure, basic operations like multiplication, inversion, and linear system solving can all be expressed in terms of the following task: evaluate the product $\mathsf{A}\mathsf{B}$, where $\mathsf{A}$ is a…
In this paper we study a worst case to average case reduction for the problem of matrix multiplication over finite fields. Suppose we have an efficient average case algorithm, that given two random matrices $A,B$ outputs a matrix that has a…
