Two elementary formulae for Mertens function $M(n)$ are obtained. With these formulae, $M(n)$ can be calculated directly and simply, which can be easily implemented by computer. $M (1) \sim M (2 \times 10^7) $ are calculated one by one.…
The classic algorithm [Papadimitriou, J.ACM '81] for IPs has a running time $n^{O(m)}(m\cdot\max\{\Delta,\|\textbf{b}\|_{\infty}\})^{O(m^2)}$, where $m$ is the number of constraints, $n$ is the number of variables, and $\Delta$ and…
Let s,t,m,n be positive integers such that sm=tn. Let M(m,s;n,t) be the number of m x n matrices over {0,1,2,...} with each row summing to s and each column summing to t. Equivalently, M(m,s;n,t) counts 2-way contingency tables of order m x…
We study the Matrix Multiplication Verification Problem (MMV) where the goal is, given three $n \times n$ matrices $A$, $B$, and $C$ as input, to decide whether $AB = C$. A classic randomized algorithm by Freivalds (MFCS, 1979) solves MMV…
We propose a novel stochastic algorithm that randomly samples entire rows and columns of the matrix as a way to approximate an arbitrary matrix function using the power series expansion. This contrasts with existing Monte Carlo methods,…
An improved algorithm is proposed for Monte Carlo methods to study fermion systems interacting with adiabatical fields. To obtain a weight for each Monte Carlo sample with a fixed configuration of adiabatical fields, a series expansion…
Let p(n, k) denote the number of partitions of n into parts less than or equal to k. We show several properties of this function modulo 2. First, we prove that for fixed positive integers k and m, p(n,k) is periodic modulo m. Using this, we…
Computing the simulation preorder of a given Kripke structure (i.e., a directed graph with $n$ labeled vertices) has crucial applications in model checking of temporal logic. It amounts to solving a specific two-players reachability game,…
Herein we explore a dual tree algorithm for matrix multiplication of $A\in \mathbb{R}^{M\times D}$ and $B\in\mathbb{R}^{D\times N}$, very narrowly effective if the normalized rows of $A$ and columns of $B$, treated as vectors in…
We consider the problem of reconstructing a rank-$k$ $n \times n$ matrix $M$ from a sampling of its entries. Under a certain incoherence assumption on $M$ and for the case when both the rank and the condition number of $M$ are bounded, it…
In this paper, considering the concept of Universal Multiplication Table, we show that for every $n\geq 2$, the inequality: $$ M(n)=#\{ij|1\leq i,j\leq n\}\geq\frac{n^2}{\mathfrak{N}(n^2)}, $$ holds true with: $$…
A Monte Carlo method for computing the action of a matrix exponential for a certain class of matrices on a vector is proposed. The method is based on generating random paths, which evolve through the indices of the matrix, governed by a…
In this paper we study the number $M_{m,n}$ of ways to place nonattacking pawns on an $m\times n$ chessboard. We find an upper bound for $M_{m,n}$ and analyse its asymptotic behavior. It turns out that $\lim_{m,n\to\infty}(M_{m,n})^{1/mn}$…
