A function $F$ defined on all subsets of a finite ground set $E$ is quasi-concave if $F(X\cup Y)\geq\min\{F(X),F(Y)\}$ for all $X,Y\subset E$. Quasi-concave functions arise in many fields of mathematics and computer science such as social…

Branching and weak probabilistic bisimilarities are two well-known notions capturing behavioral equivalence between nondeterministic probabilistic systems. For probabilistic systems, divergence is of major concern. Recently several…

We consider the problem of approximating a given element $f$ from a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ by means of greedy algorithms and the application of such procedures to the regression problem in statistical learning theory. We improve on the…

Weak bisimilarity is a distribution-based equivalence notion for Markov automata. It has gained some popularity as the coarsest reasonable behavioural equivalence on Markov automata. This paper studies a strictly coarser notion: Late weak…

We show that a very simple modification of the Pure Greedy Algorithm for approximating functions by sparse sums from a dictionary in a Hilbert or more generally a Banach space has optimal convergence rates on the class of convex…

While the basic greedy algorithm gives a semi-streaming algorithm with an approximation guarantee of $2$ for the \emph{unweighted} matching problem, it was only recently that Paz and Schwartzman obtained an analogous result for weighted…

Let $X$ be a Banach space and $\mathcal{K}$ be a compact subset in $X$. We consider a greedy algorithm for finding an $n$-dimensional subspace $V_n\subset X$ which can be used to approximate the elements of $\mathcal{K}$. We are interested…

We first study labeled transition systems with explicit successful termination. We establish the notions of strong, weak, and branching bisimulation in terms of boolean matrix theory, introducing thus a novel and powerful algebraic…

In many prediction problems, it is not uncommon that the number of variables used to construct a forecast is of the same order of magnitude as the sample size, if not larger. We then face the problem of constructing a prediction in the…

We consider a general task called partial Wasserstein covering with the goal of providing information on what patterns are not being taken into account in a dataset (e.g., dataset used during development) compared with another dataset(e.g.,…

We study the greedy (exploitation-only) algorithm in bandit problems with a known reward structure. We allow arbitrary finite reward structures, while prior work focused on a few specific ones. We fully characterize when the greedy…

Weak approximations have been developed to calculate the expectation value of functionals of stochastic differential equations, and various numerical discretization schemes (Euler, Milshtein) have been studied by many authors. We present a…

It is known that a Lipschitz continuous map from the Euclidean domain to a metric space is metrically differentiable almost everywhere. When the metric space is a Banach space dual to separable, the metric differential has its linear…

In this article, we present a family of numerical approaches to solve high-dimensional linear non-symmetric problems. The principle of these methods is to approximate a function which depends on a large number of variates by a sum of tensor…

This paper provides conditions (i) to distinguish weak supercyclicity form supercyclicity for operators acting on normed and Banach spaces, and also (ii) to ensure when weak supercyclicity implies weak stability.

Submodular maximization has been widely studied over the past decades, mostly because of its numerous applications in real-world problems. It is well known that the standard greedy algorithm guarantees a worst-case approximation factor of…

We consider the problem of sparse atomic optimization, where the notion of "sparsity" is generalized to meaning some linear combination of few atoms. The definition of atomic set is very broad; popular examples include the standard basis,…

In this note the result by A. Swift concerning the embeddability of countably branching bundle graphs into Banach spaces is extended from the context of reflexive spaces with an unconditional asymptotic structure to the context of dual…

A $k$-submodular function naturally generalizes submodular functions by taking as input $k$ disjoint subsets, rather than a single subset. Unlike standard submodular maximization, which only requires selecting elements for the solution,…

Quasi-invariant and pseudo-differentiable measures on a Banach space $X$ over a non-Archimedean locally compact infinite field with a non-trivial valuation are defined and constructed. Measures are considered with values in $\bf R$.…
