Let $\mathcal{P} \subset [0,1)^S$ be a finite point set of cardinality $N$ in an $S$-dimensional cube, and let $f:[0,1)^S \to \mathbb{R}$ be an integrable function. A QMC integration of $f$ by $\mathcal{P}$ is the average of values of $f$…

Sleeve functions are generalizations of the well-established ridge functions that play a major role in the theory of partial differential equation, medical imaging, statistics, and neural networks. Where ridge functions are non-linear,…

Given a smooth, proper, geometrically integral curve $X$ of genus $g$ with Jacobian $J$ over a number field $K$, Chabauty's method is a $p$-adic technique to bound $\# X(K)$ when $\mathrm{rank}\ J(K) < g$. We study limitations of a variant…

In the context of global optimization and mixed-integer non-linear programming, generalizing a technique of D'Ambrosio, Fampa, Lee and Vigerske for handling the square-root function, we develop a virtuous smoothing method, using cubics,…

The Chabauty--Coleman--Kim method in depth two describes the rational points on a curve in terms of a generalisation of Nekov\'a\v{r}'s $p$-adic height pairing which replaces $\mathbb{G}_m$ with a higher Chow group. It is unclear both what…

The Segment Anything Model (SAM) is a popular vision foundation model; however, its high computational and memory demands make deployment on resource-constrained devices challenging. While Post-Training Quantization (PTQ) is a practical…

It is known that local zeta functions associated with real analytic functions can be analytically continued as meromorphic functions to the whole complex plane. But, in the case of general ($C^{\infty}$) smooth functions, the meromorphic…

We establish existence of steepest descent curves emanating from almost every point of a regular locally Lipschitz quasiconvex functions, where regularity means that the sweeping process flow induced by the sublevel sets is reversible. We…

In this article, we show that (i) any smooth function on compact Riemann surface with non-empty smooth boundary $ (M, \partial M, g) $ can be realized as a Gaussian curvature function; (ii) any smooth function on $ \partial M $ can be…

Quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) methods for high dimensional integrals over unit cubes and products of spheres are well-studied in literature. We study QMC tractability of integrals of functions defined over the product of $m$ copies of the simplex…

In this thesis, a new approach for constructing subdivision algorithms for generalized quadratic and cubic B-spline subdivision for subdivision surfaces and volumes is presented. First, a catalog of quality criteria for these subdivision…

If a smooth function of one variable has maximum one on the unit interval, and has there $d$ zeroes, then its $(d+1)$-st derivative must be "big". This is one of the simplest examples of what we call "smooth rigidity": certain geometric…

The mim-width of a graph is a powerful structural parameter that, when bounded by a constant, allows several hard problems to be polynomial-time solvable - with a recent meta-theorem encompassing a large class of problems [SODA2023]. Since…

This paper is continuation of our previous papers hep-th/0209246 and hep-th/0304077 . We discuss in more detail a new form of solution to the quantum Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equation [qKZ] on level -4 obtained in the paper hep-th/0304077 for…

We fully generalize a previously-developed computational geometry tool [1] to perform large-scale simulations of arbitrary two-dimensional faceted surfaces $z = h(x,y)$. Our method uses a three-component facet/edge/junction storage model,…

Denoting $\mathcal{H}_{d,g,5}$ by the Hilbert scheme of smooth curves of degree $d$ and genus $g$ in $\mathbb{P}^5$, let $\mathcal{H}$ be an irreducible component of $\mathcal{H}_{d,g,5}$. We study the Hilbert function…

We introduce a new algorithm to compute the zeta function of a curve over a finite field. This method extends previous work of ours to all curves for which a good lift to characteristic zero is known. We develop all the necessary bounds,…

Let $X$ be a hypersurface in $\mathbb{P}^N$ with $N\geq 3$ defined over a finite field. The main result of this note is the classification, up to projective equivalence, of hypersurfaces $X$ as above without a linear component when the…

Perspective functions arise explicitly or implicitly in various forms in applied mathematics and in statistical data analysis. To date, no systematic strategy is available to solve the associated, typically nonsmooth, optimization problems.…

A piecewise Chebyshevian spline space is good for design when it possesses a B-spline basis and this property is preserved under knot insertion. The interest in such kind of spaces is justified by the fact that, similarly as for polynomial…
