This paper is our third step towards developing a theory of testing monomials in multivariate polynomials and concentrates on two problems: (1) How to compute the coefficients of multilinear monomials; and (2) how to find a maximum…
The purpose of this article is to develop a technique to estimate certain bounds for entropy numbers of diagonal operator on spaces of p-summable sequences for finite p greater than 1. The approximation method we develop in this direction…
We provide some conditions for the graph of a Hoelder-continuous function on \bar{D}, where \bar{D} is a closed disc in the complex plane, to be polynomially convex. Almost all sufficient conditions known to date --- provided the function…
We first show that a continuous function f is nonnegative on a closed set $K\subseteq R^n$ if and only if (countably many) moment matrices of some signed measure $d\nu =fd\mu$ with support equal to K, are all positive semidefinite (if $K$…
We prove that any extended formulation that approximates the matching polytope on $n$-vertex graphs up to a factor of $(1+\varepsilon)$ for any $\frac2n \le \varepsilon \le 1$ must have at least $\binom{n}{{\alpha}/{\varepsilon}}$ defining…
In this paper we study the local zero behavior of orthogonal polynomials around an algebraic singularity, that is, when the measure of orthogonality is supported on $ [-1,1] $ and behaves like $ h(x)|x - x_0|^\lambda dx $ for some $ x_0 \in…
The algorithms of Pan (1995) and(2002) approximate the roots of a complex univariate polynomial in nearly optimal arithmetic and Boolean time but require precision of computing that exceeds the degree of the polynomial. This causes…
In this paper we derive aggregate separation bounds, named after Davenport-Mahler-Mignotte (\dmm), on the isolated roots of polynomial systems, specifically on the minimum distance between any two such roots. The bounds exploit the…
We prove that, for any measurable phase space subset $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{2d}$ with $0<|\Omega|<\infty$ and any $1\le p < \infty$, the nonlinear concentration problem $$ \sup_{f \in…
The optimal one-sided parametric polynomial approximants of a circular arc are considered. More precisely, the approximant must be entirely in or out of the underlying circle of an arc. The natural restriction to an arc's approximants…
We address some questions concerning indecomposable polynomials and their behaviour under specialization. For instance we give a bound on a prime $p$ for the reduction modulo $p$ of an indecomposable polynomial $P(x)\in \Zz[x]$ to remain…
We examine the necessary and sufficient complexity of neural networks to approximate functions from different smoothness spaces under the restriction of encodable network weights. Based on an entropy argument, we start by proving lower…
We study $\{0, 1\}$ and $\{-1, 1\}$ polynomials $f(z)$, called Newman and Littlewood polynomials, that have a prescribed number $N(f)$ of zeros in the open unit disk $\mathcal{D} = \{z \in \mathbb{C}: |z| < 1\}$. For every pair $(k, n) \in…
Let $R^h$ denote the polynomial ring in variables $x_1,\,\ldots,\, x_h$ over a specified field $K$. We consider all of these rings simultaneously, and in each use lexicographic (lex) monomial order with $x_1 > \cdots > x_h$. Given a fixed…
This paper is concerned with the numerical minimization of energy functionals in Hilbert spaces involving convex constraints coinciding with a semi-norm for a subspace. The optimization is realized by alternating minimizations of the…

Let $\mathbf{X} \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ be a closed set, and consider the problem of computing the minimum $f_{\min}$ of a polynomial $f$ on $\mathbf{X}$. Given a measure $\mu$ supported on $\mathbf{X}$, Lasserre (SIAM J. Optim. 21(3),…
We consider the problem of approximating the reachable set of a discrete-time polynomial system from a semialgebraic set of initial conditions under general semialgebraic set constraints. Assuming inclusion in a given simple set like a box…
We introduce appropriate computable moduli of smoothness to characterize the rate of best approximation by multivariate polynomials on a connected and compact $C^2$-domain $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^d$. This new modulus of smoothness is…
