Consider an ideal $I \subset R = \bC[x_1,...,x_n]$ defining a complex affine variety $X \subset \bC^n$. We describe the components associated to $I$ by means of {\em numerical primary decomposition} (NPD). The method is based on the…

We consider the demixing problem of two (or more) high-dimensional vectors from nonlinear observations when the number of such observations is far less than the ambient dimension of the underlying vectors. Specifically, we demonstrate an…

This paper studies the \emph{subset sampling} problem. The input is a set $\mathcal{S}$ of $n$ records together with a function $\textbf{p}$ that assigns each record $v\in\mathcal{S}$ a probability $\textbf{p}(v)$. A query returns a random…

In the Nonnegative Matrix Factorization (NMF) problem we are given an $n \times m$ nonnegative matrix $M$ and an integer $r > 0$. Our goal is to express $M$ as $A W$ where $A$ and $W$ are nonnegative matrices of size $n \times r$ and $r…

We present a fast algorithm for modular exponentiation when the factorization of the modulus is known. Let $a,n,m$ be positive integers and suppose $m$ factors canonically as $\prod_{i=1}^k p_i^{e_i}$. Choose integer parameters $t_i\in [1,…

Functional graphs (FGs) model the graph structures used to analyse the behaviour of functions from a discrete set to itself. In turn, such functions are used to study real complex phenomena evolving in time. As the systems involved can be…

We adress the problem of the algebraic decoding of any cyclic code up to the true minimum distance. For this, we use the classical formulation of the problem, which is to find the error locator polynomial in terms of the syndroms of the…

The discrete logarithm problem in a finite group is the basis for many protocols in cryptography. The best general algorithms which solve this problem have time complexity of $\mathcal{O}(\sqrt{N}\log N)$, and a space complexity of…

Integer factorization is a famous computational problem unknown whether being solvable in the polynomial time. With the rise of deep neural networks, it is interesting whether they can facilitate faster factorization. We present an approach…

We show how one can encode $n$ bits with $n^{o(1)}$ ``wave-bits'' using still hypothetical filter-machines (here $o(1)$ denotes a positive quantity which goes to 0 as $n$ goes to infity). Our present result - in a completely different…

We give a deterministic algorithm that, given a composite number $N$ and a target order $D \ge N^{1/6}$, runs in time $D^{1/2+o(1)}$ and finds either an element $a \in \mathbb{Z}_N^*$ of multiplicative order at least $D$, or a nontrivial…

We investigate time encoding as an alternative method to classical sampling, and address the problem of reconstructing classes of non-bandlimited signals from time-based samples. We consider a sampling mechanism based on first filtering the…

Let $p$ be an odd prime. In this paper we investigate quadratic residues modulo $p$ and related permutations, congruences and identities. If $a_1<\ldots<a_{(p-1)/2}$ are all the quadratic residues modulo $p$ among $1,\ldots,p-1$, then the…

Determining whether a given integer is prime or composite is a basic task in number theory. We present a primality test based on quantum order finding and the converse of Fermat's theorem. For an integer $N$, the test tries to find an…

We establish the average-case hardness of the algorithmic problem of exact computation of the partition function associated with the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model of spin glasses with Gaussian couplings and random external field. In…

A new effective method for factorization of a class of nonrational $n\times n$ matrix-functions with \emph{stable partial indices} is proposed. The method is a generalization of the one recently proposed by the authors which was valid for…

In this paper, we extend the work of (Abbondati et al., 2024) on decoding simultaneous rational number codes by addressing two important scenarios: multiplicities and the presence of bad primes (divisors of denominators). First, we…

In this article we study a broad class of integer programming problems in variable dimension. We show that these so-termed {\em n-fold integer programming problems} are polynomial time solvable. Our proof involves two heavy ingredients…

We give an incremental polynomial time algorithm for enumerating the vertices of any polyhedron $\mathcal{P}(A,\mathbf{1})=\{x\in\RR^n \mid Ax\geq \b1,~x\geq \b0\}$, when $A$ is a totally unimodular matrix. Our algorithm is based on…

Constructing $r$-th nonresidue over a finite field is a fundamental computational problem. A related problem is to construct an irreducible polynomial of degree $r^e$ (where $r$ is a prime) over a given finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of…
