Given $v_1,\ldots, v_m\in\mathbb{C}^d$ with $\|v_i\|^2= \alpha$ for all $i\in[m]$ as input and suppose $\sum_{i=1}^m | \langle u, v_i \rangle |^2 = 1$ for every unit vector $u\in\mathbb{C}^d$, Weaver's discrepancy problem asks for a…

In the Subset Sum problem we are given a set of $n$ positive integers $X$ and a target $t$ and are asked whether some subset of $X$ sums to $t$. Natural parameters for this problem that have been studied in the literature are $n$ and $t$ as…

Let $a, b\in \mathbb{N}$ be relatively prime. Previous work showed that exactly one of the two equations $ax + by = (a-1)(b-1)/2$ and $ax + by + 1 = (a-1)(b-1)/2$ has a nonnegative, integral solution; furthermore, the solution is unique.…

An integer $a$ is a quadratic nonresidue for a prime $p$ if $x^2 \equiv a \bmod p$ has no solution. Quadratic nonresidues may be found by probabilistic methods in polynomial time. However, without assuming the Generalized Riemann…

We present an algorithm which computes the multilinear factors of bivariate lacunary polynomials. It is based on a new Gap Theorem which allows to test whether a polynomial of the form P(X,X+1) is identically zero in time polynomial in the…

Myasnikov, Ushakov, and Won introduced power circuits in 2012 to construct a polynomial-time algorithm for the word problem in the Baumslag group, which has a non-elementary Dehn function. Power circuits are computational structures that…

In the PATH COVER problem, one asks to cover the vertices of a graph using the smallest possible number of (not necessarily disjoint) paths. While the variant where the paths need to be pairwise vertex-disjoint, which we call PATH…

We present a novel algorithm attaining excessively fast, the sought solution of linear systems of equations. The algorithm is short in its basic formulation and, by definition, vectorized, while the memory allocation demands are trivial,…

We consider a variety of Euler's conjecture, i.e., whether the Diophantine system \[\begin{cases} n=a_{1}+a_{2}+\cdots+a_{s-1}, a_{1}a_{2}\cdots a_{s-1}(a_{1}+a_{2}+\cdots+a_{s-1})=b^{s} \end{cases}\] has solutions…

Diophantine equations are multivariate equations, usually polynomial, in which only integer solutions are admitted. A brute force method for finding solutions would be to systematically substitute possible integer solutions and check for…

We describe algorithms for computing eigenpairs (eigenvalue-eigenvector pairs) of a complex $n\times n$ matrix $A$. These algorithms are numerically stable, strongly accurate, and theoretically efficient (i.e., polynomial-time). We do not…
