One of the equivalent formulations of the Kadison-Singer problem which was resolved in 2013 by Marcus, Spielman and Srivastava, is the "paving conjecture". Roughly speaking, the paving conjecture states that every positive semi-definite…
This diploma thesis is concerned with functional decomposition $f = g \circ h$ of polynomials. First an algorithm is described which computes decompositions in polynomial time. This algorithm was originally proposed by Zippel (1991). A…
We consider the problem of approximating partition functions for Ising models. We make use of recent tools in combinatorial optimization: the Sherali-Adams and Lasserre convex programming hierarchies, in combination with variational methods…
A vector partition function is the number of ways to write a vector as a non-negative integer-coefficient sum of the elements of a finite set of vectors $\Delta$. We present a new algorithm for computing closed-form formulas for vector…
In this note, the first-order Dickson polynomials are introduced through a particular case of the expression of the trace of the $n^{th}$ power of a matrix in terms of powers of the trace and determinant of the matrix itself. The technique…

For compact self-adjoint operators in Hilbert spaces, two algorithms are proposed to provide fully computable a posteriori error estimate for eigenfunction approximation. Both algorithms apply well to the case of tight clusters and multiple…
Gaussian variational approximation is a popular methodology to approximate posterior distributions in Bayesian inference especially in high dimensional and large data settings. To control the computational cost while being able to capture…
First, we show that Sturm algorithm and Sylvester algorithm, which compute the number of real roots of a given univariate polynomial, lead to two dual tridiagonal determinantal representations of the polynomial. Next, we show that the…
This paper is about how to partition decision variables while decomposing a large-scale optimization problem for the best performance of distributed solution methods. Solving a large-scale optimization problem sequen- tially can be…
We apply some recent developments of Baldoni-Beck-Cochet-Vergne on vector partition function, to Kostant's and Steinberg's formulae, for classical Lie algebras $A\_r$, $B\_r$, $C\_r$, $D\_r$. We therefore get efficient {\tt Maple} programs…
We introduce two graph polynomials and discuss their properties. One is a polynomial of two variables whose investigation is motivated by the performance analysis of the Bethe approximation of the Ising partition function. The other is a…
Given data drawn from a mixture of multivariate Gaussians, a basic problem is to accurately estimate the mixture parameters. We give an algorithm for this problem that has a running time, and data requirement polynomial in the dimension and…
We generalize the Robinson-Schensted-Knuth algorithm to the insertion of two row arrays of multisets. This generalization leads to new enumerative results that have representation theoretic interpretations as decompositions of centralizer…
We obtain a unification of two refinements of Euler's partition theorem respectively due to Bessenrodt and Glaisher. A specialization of Bessenrodt's insertion algorithm for a generalization of the Andrews-Olsson partition identity is used…
