Recently there emerge many distributed algorithms that aim at solving subgraph matching at scale. Existing algorithm-level comparisons failed to provide a systematic view to the pros and cons of each algorithm mainly due to the intertwining…

Using well-known mathematical problems for encryption is a widely used technique because they are computationally hard and provide security against potential attacks on the encryption method. The subset sum problem (SSP) can be defined as…

Debugging accumulation of floating-point errors is hard; ideally, computer should track it automatically. Here we consider twofold approximation of an exact real with value + error pair of floating-point numbers. Normally, value + error sum…

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…

It is well known that the following Collatz Conjecture is one of the unsolved problems in mathematics. Collatz Conjecture: For any positive integer $n>1$, the following recursive algorithm will convergent to 1 by a finite number of steps.…

We give an endorsement for Cornacchia's famous algorithm. Thus we do not claim anything new but an approach which is supposed to be simpler than those of previous works written with the same aim.

We propose a fast proximal Newton-type algorithm for minimizing regularized finite sums that returns an $\epsilon$-suboptimal point in $\tilde{\mathcal{O}}(d(n + \sqrt{\kappa d})\log(\frac{1}{\epsilon}))$ FLOPS, where $n$ is number of…

Although some recent works show potential complementarity among different state-of-the-art systems, few works try to investigate this problem in text summarization. Researchers in other areas commonly refer to the techniques of reranking or…

A coreset (or core-set) of an input set is its small summation, such that solving a problem on the coreset as its input, provably yields the same result as solving the same problem on the original (full) set, for a given family of problems…

We derive a simple lower bound for the multi-version coding problem formulated in [1]. We also propose simple algorithms that almost match the lower bound derived. Another lower bound is proven for an extended version of the multi-version…

This paper establishes the exact comparison complexity of finding an element repeated $n$ times in a $2n$-element array containing $n+1$ distinct values, under the equality-comparison model with $O(1)$ extra space. We present a simple…

We give a new, elementary proof of a key inequality used by Rudelson in the derivation of his well-known bound for random sums of rank-one operators. Our approach is based on Ahlswede and Winter's technique for proving operator Chernoff…

Queries involving aggregation are typical in database applications. One of the main ideas to optimize the execution of an aggregate query is to reuse results of previously answered queries. This leads to the problem of rewriting aggregate…

A decomposition of a natural number n is a sequence of consecutive natural numbers that sums to n. We construct a one-to-one correspondence between the odd factors of a natural number and its decompositions. We study the decompositions by…

A new O(N) algorithm based on a recursion method, in which the computational effort is proportional to the number of atoms N, is presented for calculating the inverse of an overlap matrix which is needed in electronic structure calculations…

Assuming that we have a soft-decision list decoding algorithm of a linear code, a new hard-decision list decoding algorithm of its repeated code is proposed in this article. Although repeated codes are not used for encoding data, due to…

We consider the problem of inserting a new item into an ordered list of N-1 items. The length of an algorithm is measured by the number of comparisons it makes between the new item and items already on the list. Classically, determining the…

We present two sets of 12 integers that have the same sets of 4-sums. The proof of the fact that a set of 12 numbers is uniquely determined by the set of its 4-sums published 50 years ago is wrong, and we demonstrate an incorrect…

We reprove the countable splitting lemma by adapting Nawrotzki's algorithm which produces a sequence that converges to a solution. Our algorithm combines Nawrotzki's approach with taking finite cuts. It is constructive in the sense that…

We show how the differentiability method employed in the paper ``Differentiable Integer Linear Programming'', Geng, et al., 2025 as shown in its theorem 5 is incorrect. Moreover, there already exists some downstream work that inherits the…
