The Mahler measure of a polynomial is a measure of complexity formed by taking the modulus of the leading coefficient times the modulus of the product of its roots outside the unit circle. The roots of a real degree $N$ polynomial chosen…
We focus on two central themes in this dissertation. The first one is on decomposing polytopes and polynomials in ways that allow us to perform nonlinear optimization. We start off by explaining important results on decomposing a polytope…
The DLG root-squaring iterations, due to Dandelin 1826 and rediscovered by Lobachevsky 1834 and Graeffe 1837, have been the main approach to root-finding for a univariate polynomial p(x) in the 19th century and beyond, but not so nowadays…
We address the problem of solving systems of two bivariate polynomials of total degree at most $d$ with integer coefficients of maximum bitsize $\tau$. It is known that a linear separating form, that is a linear combination of the variables…
We refine the bit complexity analysis of an algorithm for the computation of at least one point per connected component of a smooth real algebraic set, yielding exponential speedup (with respect to the number of variables) compared to prior…
We study the decomposition of multivariate polynomials as sums of powers of linear forms. We give a randomized algorithm for the following problem: If a homogeneous polynomial $f \in K[x_1 , . . . , x_n]$ (where $K \subseteq \mathbb{C}$) of…
Let $f \in \mathbb{Z}[y]$ be a polynomial such that $f(\mathbb{N}) \subseteq \mathbb{N}$, and let $p_{\mathcal{A}_{f}}(n)$ denote number of partitions of $n$ whose parts lie in the set $\mathcal{A}_f:=\{f(n):n \in \mathbb{N}\}$. Under…

Let $\mathbf{K}$ be a field and $\phi$, $\mathbf{f} = (f_1, \ldots, f_s)$ in $\mathbf{K}[x_1, \dots, x_n]$ be multivariate polynomials (with $s < n$) invariant under the action of $\mathcal{S}_n$, the group of permutations of $\{1, \dots,…
The standard way of solving a polynomial eigenvalue problem associated with a matrix polynomial starts by embedding the matrix coefficients of the polynomial into a matrix pencil, known as a strong linearization. This process transforms the…
A wide variety of problems in combinatorics and discrete optimization depend on counting the set $S$ of integer points in a polytope, or in some more general object constructed via discrete geometry and first-order logic. We take a tour…
Computing the roots of a univariate polynomial is a fundamental and long-studied problem of computational algebra with applications in mathematics, engineering, computer science, and the natural sciences. For isolating as well as for…
Until recently, the only known method of finding the roots of polynomials over prime power rings, other than fields, was brute force. One reason for this is the lack of a division algorithm, obstructing the use of greatest common divisors.…
We study the problem of computing the isolated regular solutions of a system \((f_1,\ldots,f_n)\) of \(n\) polynomial equations in \(n\) variables \((X_1, \dots, X_n)\) over a field of characteristic zero \(k\). We focus on systems with a…
Given an approximation to a multiple isolated solution of a polynomial system of equations, we have provided a symbolic-numeric deflation algorithm to restore the quadratic convergence of Newton's method. Using first-order derivatives of…
We study the approximation capabilities of two families of univariate polynomials that arise in applications of quantum signal processing. Although approximation only in the domain $[0,1]$ is physically desired, these polynomial families…
Let $T=\alpha_0 I + \alpha_1 D + ...+\alpha_n D^n$, where $D$ is the differentiation operator and $\alpha_0\not= 0$, and let $f$ be a square-free polynomial with large minimum root separation. We prove that the roots of $Tf$ are close to…
Recursive maps of high order of convergence $m$ (say $m=2^{10}$ or $m=2^{20}$) induce certain monotone step functions from which one can filter relevant information needed to globally separate and compute the real roots of a function on a…
Causal Bayesian networks are widely used tools for summarising the dependencies between variables and elucidating their putative causal relationships. By restricting the search to trees, for example, learning the optimum from data is…
The vanishing ideal is a set of polynomials that takes zero value on the given data points. Originally proposed in computer algebra, the vanishing ideal has been recently exploited for extracting the nonlinear structures of data in many…
