The \Problem{knapsack} problem is a fundamental problem in combinatorial optimization. It has been studied extensively from theoretical as well as practical perspectives as it is one of the most well-known NP-hard problems. The goal is to…
This document contains notes based on lectures given by Hendrik Lenstra at the PCMI summer school 2022. There are many problems in algebraic number theory which one would like to solve algorithmically, for example computation of the maximal…
We address complexity issues for linear differential equations in characteristic $p>0$: resolution and computation of the $p$-curvature. For these tasks, our main focus is on algorithms whose complexity behaves well with respect to $p$. We…
The random access problem for compressed strings is to build a data structure that efficiently supports accessing the character in position $i$ of a string given in compressed form. Given a grammar of size $n$ compressing a string of size…
We give a positive answer to a question raised by Davis et al. ({\em Discrete Mathematics} 341, 2018), concerning permutations with the same pinnacle set. Given $\pi\in S_n$, a {\em pinnacle} of $\pi$ is an element $\pi_i$ ($i\neq 1,n$)…
We call an objective function or algorithm symmetric with respect to an input if after swapping two parts of the input in any algorithm, the solution of the algorithm and the output remain the same. More formally, for a permutation $\pi$ of…
In-place associative integer sorting technique was proposed for integer lists which requires only constant amount of additional memory replacing bucket sort, distribution counting sort and address calculation sort family of algorithms. The…
A well known numerical task is the inversion of large symmetric tridiagonal Toeplitz matrices, i.e., matrices whose entries equal $a$ on the diagonal and $b$ on the extra diagonals ($a, b\in \mathbb R$). The inverses of such matrices are…
Using the theory of representations of the symmetric group, we propose an algorithm to compute the invariant ring of a permutation group. Our approach have the goal to reduce the amount of linear algebra computations and exploit a thinner…
In this note we consider the question how the set of inversions of a permutation $\pi \in S_n$ can be partitioned into two subset, such that those are itself inversion sets of permutations. This is archived by exploiting a connection to a…
We introduce two efficient algorithms for computing the partial Fourier transforms in one and two dimensions. Our study is motivated by the wave extrapolation procedure in reflection seismology. In both algorithms, the main idea is to…
An alternative to the matrix inverse procedure is presented. Given a bit register which is arbitrarily large, the matrix inverse to an arbitrarily large matrix can be peformed in ${\cal O}(N^2)$ operations, and to matrix multiplication on a…
We give a self-contained randomized algorithm based on shifted inverse iteration which provably computes the eigenvalues of an arbitrary matrix $M\in\mathbb{C}^{n\times n}$ up to backward error $\delta\|M\|$ in…
It has recently been shown that starting with a classical query algorithm (decision tree) and a guessing algorithm that tries to predict the query answers, we can design a quantum algorithm with query complexity $O(\sqrt{GT})$ where $T$ is…
In this paper, we describe randomized Shellsort--a simple, randomized, data-oblivious version of the Shellsort algorithm that always runs in O(n log n) time and, as we show, succeeds in sorting any given input permutation with very high…
We introduce a compressed suffix array representation that, on a text $T$ of length $n$ over an alphabet of size $\sigma$, can be built in $O(n)$ deterministic time, within $O(n\log\sigma)$ bits of working space, and counts the number of…
The proliferation of number of processing elements (PEs) in parallel computer systems, along with the use of more extensive parallelization of algorithms causes the interprocessor communications dominate VLSI chip space. This paper proposes…

We describe a RAM algorithm computing all runs (maximal repetitions) of a given string of length $n$ over a general ordered alphabet in $O(n\log^{\frac{2}3} n)$ time and linear space. Our algorithm outperforms all known solutions working in…
We revisit the 3SUM problem in the \emph{preprocessed universes} setting. We present an algorithm that, given three sets $A$, $B$, $C$ of $n$ integers, preprocesses them in quadratic time, so that given any subsets $A' \subseteq A$, $B'…
