We say that two given polynomials $f, g \in R[X]$, over a ring $R$, are equivalent under shifts if there exists a vector $a \in R^n$ such that $f(X+a) = g(X)$. Grigoriev and Karpinski (FOCS 1990), Lakshman and Saunders (SICOMP, 1995), and…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a finite undirected graph without loops and multiple edges. A subset $M \subseteq E$ of edges is a {\em dominating induced matching} ({\em d.i.m.}) in $G$ if every edge in $E$ is intersected by exactly one edge of $M$. In…

For a polynomial $f$ from a class $\mathcal{C}$ of polynomials, we show that the problem to compute all the constant degree irreducible factors of $f$ reduces in polynomial time to polynomial identity tests (PIT) for class $\mathcal{C}$ and…

It is unknown whether two graphs can be tested for isomorphism in polynomial time. A classical approach to the Graph Isomorphism Problem is the d-dimensional Weisfeiler-Lehman algorithm. The d-dimensional WL-algorithm can distinguish many…

Let $p$ be a prime and $n$ a positive integer. As the first main result, we present a deterministic algorithm for deciding whether the matrix algebra $\mathbb{F}_p[A_1,\dots,A_t]$ with $A_1,\dots,A_t \in \mathrm{GL}(n,\mathbb{F}_p)$ is a…

A symbolic determinant under rank-one restriction computes a polynomial of the form $\det(A_0+A_1y_1+\ldots+A_ny_n)$, where $A_0,A_1,\ldots,A_n$ are square matrices over a field $\mathbb{F}$ and $rank(A_i)=1$ for each $i\in[n]$. This class…
