This paper is concerned with linear algebra based methods for solving exactly polynomial systems through so-called Gr\"obner bases, which allow one to compute modulo the polynomial ideal generated by the input equations. This is a topical…
In the long paper "Family Blowup formula, Admissible Graphs and the Enumeration of Singular Curves (I)" (appearing in JDG), the author solved the enumeration problem of nodal (or general singular) curve counting on algebraic surfaces by…
We give a procedure that can be used to automatically satisfy invariants of a certain shape. These invariants may be written with the operations intersection, composition and converse over binary relations, and equality over these…
J. J. Sylvester's four-point problem asks for the probability that four points chosen uniformly at random in the plane have a triangle as their convex hull. Using a combinatorial classification of points in the plane due to Goodman and…
In 1964, Erd\H{o}s, Hajnal and Moon introduced a saturation version of Tur\'an's classical theorem in extremal graph theory. In particular, they determined the minimum number of edges in a $K_r$-free, $n$-vertex graph with the property that…
We extend the well known bottleneck paths problem in two directions for directed unweighted (unit edge cost) graphs with positive real edge capacities. Firstly we narrow the problem domain and compute the bottleneck of the entire network in…
The following system of equations {x_1 \cdot x_1=x_2, x_2 \cdot x_2=x_3, 2^{2^{x_1}}=x_3, x_4 \cdot x_5=x_2, x_6 \cdot x_7=x_2} has exactly one solution in ({\mathbb N}\{0,1})^7, namely (2,4,16,2,2,2,2). Hypothesis 1 states that if a system…
We prove a complexity dichotomy theorem for Holant Problems on 3-regular graphs with an arbitrary complex-valued edge function. Three new techniques are introduced: (1) higher dimensional iterations in interpolation; (2) Eigenvalue Shifted…
In this paper we solve the polarization problem for real Hilbert spaces, a long-standing conjecture that had remained open for nearly three decades. We also confirm that the only extremal configurations are orthonormal sets. These are…
In this paper we apply our results on the geometry of polygons in Cartan subspaces, symmetric spaces and buildings to four problems in algebraic group theory. Two of these problems are generalizations of the problems of finding the…
Harary and Palmer announced an enumeration problem of labelled self-complementary graphs at the end of their book (Graphical Enumeration, Academic Press, New York and London, 1973). This paper resolves this problem. A method for solving…
We generalize the joints problem to sets of varieties and prove almost sharp bound on the number of joints. As a special case, given a set of $N$ $2$-planes in $\mathbb{R}^6$, the number of points at which three $2$-planes intersect and…
In the space of holomorphic functions in a convex domain it is studied the interpolation problem by means of sums of the series of exponentials converging uniformly on all compact sets of the domain. The discrete set of the interpolation…
This paper studies the computational difficulty of clustering problems that are defined directly on a continuous probability density. Rather than working with finite samples, we assume the density is given as a polynomial and ask whether it…
We prove that for a sufficiently ample line bundle $L$ on a surface $S$, the number of $\delta$-nodal curves in a general $\delta$-dimensional linear system is given by a universal polynomial of degree $\delta$ in the four numbers…
Constrained sampling and counting are two fundamental problems in artificial intelligence with a diverse range of applications, spanning probabilistic reasoning and planning to constrained-random verification. While the theory of these…
In recent years many efforts have been devoted to finding bidiagonal factorizations of nonsingular totally positive matrices, since their accurate computation allows to numerically solve several important algebraic problems with great…
Heinz Huber (1956) considered the following problem on the the hyperbolic plane H. Consider a strictly hyperbolic subgroup of automorphisms on H with compact quotient, and choose a conjugacy class in this group. Count the number of vertices…
Consider a problem where we are given a bipartite graph H with vertices arranged on two horizontal lines in the plane, such that the two sets of vertices placed on the two lines form a bipartition of H. We additionally require that H admits…
Given a poset $P$, a family $F$ of elements in the Boolean lattice is said to be $P$-saturated if (1) $F$ contains no copy of $P$ as a subposet and (2) every proper superset of $F$ contains a copy of $P$ as a subposet. The maximum size of a…
