Consider a polynomial optimization problem. Adding polynomial equations generated by the Fritz John conditions to the constraint set does not change the optimal value. As proved in [arXiv:2205.04254 (2022)], the objective polynomial has…
This paper is about the general truncated matrix-valued moment problem. Let $\mathcal{H}_q$ denote the complex Hermitian $q\times q$-matrices, $q\in \mathbb{N}$. Suppose that $(\mathcal{X},\mathfrak{X})$ is a measurable space and…
Quantum computing and modern tensor-based computing have a strong connection, which is especially demonstrated by simulating quantum computations with tensor networks. The other direction is less studied: quantum computing is not often…
We present a new algorithm for computing a truncated Markov basis of a lattice. In general, this new algorithm is faster than existing methods. We then extend this new algorithm so that it solves the linear integer feasibility problem with…

We study a bi-objective optimization problem, which for a given positive real number $n$ aims to find a vector $X = \{x_0,\cdots,x_{k-1}\} \in \mathbb{R}^{k}_{\ge 0}$ such that $\sum_{i=0}^{k-1} x_i = n$, minimizing the maximum of $k$…
