In this paper, we derive entrywise error bounds for low-rank approximations of kernel matrices obtained using the truncated eigen-decomposition (or singular value decomposition). While this approximation is well-known to be optimal with…
This note considers the inexact cubic-regularized Newton's method (CR), which has been shown in \cite{Cartis2011a} to achieve the same order-level convergence rate to a secondary stationary point as the exact CR \citep{Nesterov2006}.…

We address the inverse Frobenius--Perron problem: given a prescribed target distribution $\rho$, find a deterministic map $M$ such that iterations of $M$ tend to $\rho$ in distribution. We show that all solutions may be written in terms of…
We revisit a formula that connects the minimal ranks of triangular parts of a matrix and its inverse and relate the result to structured rank matrices. We also address the generic minimal rank problem.
Suppose that the matrix equation $AXB=C$ with unknown matrix $X$ is given, where $A$, $B$, and $C$\ are known matrices of suitable sizes. The matrix nearness problem is considered over the general and least squares solutions of the matrix…
