Consider the integer best approximations of a linear form in $n\ge 2$ real variables. While it is well-known that any tail of this sequence always spans a lattice is sharp for any $n\ge 2$. In this paper, we determine the exact Hausdorff…
Scalar quantization of large language models (LLMs) is fundamentally limited by information-theoretic bounds. While vector quantization (VQ) overcomes these limits by encoding blocks of parameters jointly, practical implementations must…

This paper partially addresses the problem of characterizing the lengths of vectors in a family of Euclidean lattices that arise from any CM number field. We define a modified quadratic form on these lattices, the weighted norm, that…

The factorization norms of the lower-triangular all-ones $n \times n$ matrix, $\gamma_2(M_{count})$ and $\gamma_{F}(M_{count})$, play a central role in differential privacy as they are used to give theoretical justification of the accuracy…
We consider a high dimensional linear regression problem where the goal is to efficiently recover an unknown vector $\beta^*$ from $n$ noisy linear observations $Y=X\beta^*+W \in \mathbb{R}^n$, for known $X \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times p}$ and…
It is expected that the statistical fluctuations of local observables in large quantum systems obey the central limit theorem, and approximate a normal distribution as their size grows. Here, we prove a version of the Berry-Esseen theorem…
Quantization of neural networks has become common practice, driven by the need for efficient implementations of deep neural networks on embedded devices. In this paper, we exploit an oft-overlooked degree of freedom in most networks - for a…
