In the general submatrix detection problem, the task is to detect the presence of a small $k \times k$ submatrix with entries sampled from a distribution $\mathcal{P}$ in an $n \times n$ matrix of samples from $\mathcal{Q}$. This…

It is widely known that the lower bound for the algorithmic complexity of square matrix multiplication resorts to at least $n^2$ arithmetic operations. The justification builds upon the following reasoning: given that there are $2 n^2$…

In the present note, we study a new method of constructing efficient coverings for Kronecker powers of matrices, recently proposed by J. Alman, Y. Guan, A. Padaki [arXiv, 2022]. We provide an alternative proof for the case of symmetric…

Arithmetic complexity is considered simpler to understand than Boolean complexity, namely computing Boolean functions via logical gates. And indeed, we seem to have significantly more lower bound techniques and results in arithmetic…

In the light bulb problem, one is given uniformly random vectors $x_1, \ldots, x_n, y_1, \ldots, y_n \in \{-1,1\}^d$. They are all chosen independently except a planted pair $(x_{i^*}, y_{j^*})$ is chosen with correlation $\rho>0$. The goal…

When designing new materials, it is often necessary to tailor the material design (with respect to its design parameters) to have some desired properties (e.g. Young's modulus). As the set of design parameters grow, the search space grows…

Let M_n denote the matrix multiplication tensor for nxn matrices. We use the border substitution method combined with Koszul flattenings to prove the border rank lower bound of 2n^2-log(n)-1 for M_n.

The complexity of matrix multiplication (hereafter MM) has been intensively studied since 1969, when Strassen surprisingly decreased the exponent 3 in the cubic cost of the straightforward classical MM to log 2 (7) $\approx$ 2.8074.…
