I provide a novel approach to characterizing the set of interim realizable allocations, in the spirit of Matthews (1984) and Border (1991). The approach allows me to identify precisely why exact characterizations are difficult to obtain in…
Our aim is to investigate the properties of existence and uniqueness of greedy bases in Banach spaces. We show the non-existence of greedy basis in some Nakano spaces and Orlicz sequence spaces and produce the first-known examples of…
It is known that for a conditional quasi-greedy basis $\mathcal{B}$ in a Banach space $\mathbb{X}$, the associated sequence $(k_{m}[\mathcal{B}])_{m=1}^{\infty}$ of its conditionality constants verifies the estimate…
The change-making problem consists of representing a certain amount of money with the least possible number of coins, from a given, pre-established set of denominations. The greedy algorithm works by choosing the coins of largest possible…
More precise estimation of the greedy algorithm complexity for a special case of the set cover problem is given in this paper.
The purpose of this paper is to quantify the size of the Lebesgue constants $(L_m)_{m=1}^{\infty}$ associated with the thresholding greedy algorithm in terms of a new generation of parameters that modulate accurately some features of a…
We provide new approximation guarantees for greedy low rank matrix estimation under standard assumptions of restricted strong convexity and smoothness. Our novel analysis also uncovers previously unknown connections between the low rank…
We show that for quasi-greedy bases in real Banach spaces the error of the thresholding greedy algorithm of order N is bounded by the best N-term error of approximation times a constant which depends on the democracy functions and the…
We continue the study initiated in [F. Albiac and P. Wojtaszczyk, Characterization of $1$-greedy bases, J. Approx. Theory 138 (2006), no. 1, 65-86] of properties related to greedy bases in the case when the constants involved are sharp,…

This paper establishes alternative characterizations of very expressive classes of existential rule sets with decidable query entailment. We consider the notable class of greedy bounded-treewidth sets (gbts) and a new, generalized variant,…
In this paper, we study greedy variants of quasi-Newton methods. They are based on the updating formulas from a certain subclass of the Broyden family. In particular, this subclass includes the well-known DFP, BFGS and SR1 updates. However,…
We briefly discuss the greedy method and a couple of its more efficient variants for approximately maximizing monotone submodular functions.
The fact that finite direct sums of two or more mutually different spaces from the family $\{\ell_{p} : 1\le p<\infty\}\cup c_{0}$ fail to have greedy bases is stated in [Dilworth et al., Greedy bases for Besov spaces, Constr. Approx. 34…
We characterize completey (give a necessary and suffcient condition using special neat embeddings)for a relation algebra to belong to the amalgamation, strong amalgamation, and superamalgamation base of the class of representable algebras.…
We show that, for quasi-greedy bases in Hilbert spaces, the associated conditionality constants grow at most as $O(\log N)^{1-\epsilon}$, for some $\epsilon>0$, answering a question by Temlyakov. We show the optimality of this bound with an…
In this note we extend the notion of greedy bases developed by Lee, Li, and Zelevinsky to rank two generalized cluster algebras, i.e. binomial exchange relations are replaced by polynomial exchange relations. In the process we give a…
A base for a permutation group $G$ acting on a set $\Omega$ is a sequence $\mathcal{B}$ of points of $\Omega$ such that the pointwise stabiliser $G_{\mathcal{B}}$ is trivial. Denote the minimum size of a base for $G$ by $b(G)$. There is a…
We study the problem of improving the greedy constant or the democracy constant of a basis of a Banach space by renorming. We prove that every Banach space with a greedy basis can be renormed, for a given $\vare>0$, so that the basis…
A novel and detailed convergence analysis is presented for a greedy algorithm that was previously introduced for operator reconstruction problems in the field of quantum mechanics. This algorithm is based on an offline/online decomposition…
