We revisit the 3SUM problem in the \emph{preprocessed universes} setting. We present an algorithm that, given three sets $A$, $B$, $C$ of $n$ integers, preprocesses them in quadratic time, so that given any subsets $A' \subseteq A$, $B'…

A Las Vegas randomized algorithm is given to compute the Smith multipliers for a nonsingular integer matrix $A$, that is, unimodular matrices $U$ and $V$ such that $AV=US$, with $S$ the Smith normal form of $A$. The expected running time of…
He and Yuan's prediction-correction framework [SIAM J. Numer. Anal. 50: 700-709, 2012] is able to provide convergent algorithms for solving separable convex optimization problems at a rate of $O(1/t)$ ($t$ represents iteration times) in…
Exploiting higher-order derivatives in convex optimization is known at least since 1970's. In each iteration higher-order (also called tensor) methods minimize a regularized Taylor expansion of the objective function, which leads to faster…
Polynomial-time algorithms are given to find a central decomposition of maximum size for a finite p-group of class 2 and for a nilpotent Lie ring of class 2. The algorithms use Las Vegas probabilistic routines to compute the structure of…

Lattice rules and polynomial lattice rules are quadrature rules for approximating integrals over the $s$-dimensional unit cube. Since no explicit constructions of such quadrature methods are known for dimensions $s > 2$, one usually has to…
