Unitary best approximation to the exponential function on an interval on the imaginary axis has been introduced recently. In the present work two algorithms are considered to compute this best approximant: an algorithm based on rational…

Let $l$ be a finite field of cardinality $q$ and let $n$ be in $\mathbb{Z}_{\geq 1}$. Let $f_1,\ldots,f_n \in l[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ not all constant and consider the evaluation map $f=(f_1,\ldots,f_n) \colon l^n \to l^n$. Set…

For a polynomial f: {-1, 1}^n --> C, we define the partition function as the average of e^{lambda f(x)} over all points x in {-1, 1}^n, where lambda in C is a parameter. We present a quasi-polynomial algorithm, which, given such f, lambda…
