The hierarchical overlap graph (HOG) is a graph that encodes overlaps from a given set P of n strings, as the overlap graph does. A best known algorithm constructs HOG in O(||P|| log n) time and O(||P||) space, where ||P|| is the sum of…

We give an algorithm for finding an $\epsilon$-fixed point of a contraction map $f:[0,1]^k\mapsto[0,1]^k$ under the $\ell_\infty$-norm with query complexity $O (k\log (1/\epsilon ) )$.

We revisit conformal time $\eta$ in a spatially flat Friedmann--Robertson--Walker universe and use a $1+1$-dimensional setting as a technically transparent pedagogical arena. Our purpose is to clarify the relation among cosmic time $t$,…

For all $n, \epsilon >0$, we show that the set of Poisson Binomial distributions on $n$ variables admits a proper $\epsilon$-cover in total variation distance of size $n^2+n \cdot (1/\epsilon)^{O(\log^2 (1/\epsilon))}$, which can also be…

Given a semi-Hamiltonian system, we construct an $F$-manifold with a connection satisfying a suitable compatibility condition with the product. We exemplify this procedure in the case of the so-called $\epsilon$-system. The corresponding…

We introduce a relaxed version of the metric definition of quasiconformality that is natural also for mappings of low regularity, including $W_{\mathrm{loc}}^{1,1}(\mathbb{R}^n;\mathbb{R}^n)$-mappings. Then we show on the plane that this…

Surface parameterizations have been widely used in computer graphics and geometry processing. In particular, as simply-connected open surfaces are conformally equivalent to the unit disk, it is desirable to compute the disk conformal…

A translation-invariant gapped local Hamiltonian is in the trivial phase if it can be connected to a completely decoupled Hamiltonian with a smooth path of translation-invariant gapped local Hamiltonians. For the ground state of such a…
