The Schatten quasi-norm can be used to bridge the gap between the nuclear norm and rank function, and is the tighter approximation to matrix rank. However, most existing Schatten quasi-norm minimization (SQNM) algorithms, as well as for…
Let $0<p,q\leq \infty$ and denote by $\mathcal S_p^N$ and $\mathcal S_q^N$ the corresponding Schatten classes of real $N\times N$ matrices. We study approximation quantities of natural identities $\mathcal S_p^N\hookrightarrow \mathcal…
Sketching and streaming algorithms are in the forefront of current research directions for cut problems in graphs. In the streaming model, we show that $(1-\epsilon)$-approximation for Max-Cut must use $n^{1-O(\epsilon)}$ space; moreover,…
We study active sampling algorithms for linear regression, which aim to query only a few entries of a target vector $b\in\mathbb R^n$ and output a near minimizer to $\min_{x\in\mathbb R^d} \|Ax-b\|$, for a design matrix $A\in\mathbb R^{n…
In this paper, we study the distributed sketching complexity of connectivity. In distributed graph sketching, an $n$-node graph $G$ is distributed to $n$ players such that each player sees the neighborhood of one vertex. The players then…
A common data analysis task is the reduced-rank regression problem: $$\min_{\textrm{rank-}k \ X} \|AX-B\|,$$ where $A \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times c}$ and $B \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times d}$ are given large matrices and $\|\cdot\|$ is some norm.…
We show how to sketch semidefinite programs (SDPs) using positive maps in order to reduce their dimension. More precisely, we use Johnson\hyp{}Lindenstrauss transforms to produce a smaller SDP whose solution preserves feasibility or…
For any real number $p > 0$, we nearly completely characterize the space complexity of estimating $\|A\|_p^p = \sum_{i=1}^n \sigma_i^p$ for $n \times n$ matrices $A$ in which each row and each column has $O(1)$ non-zero entries and whose…
We study how well one can recover sparse principal components of a data matrix using a sketch formed from a few of its elements. We show that for a wide class of optimization problems, if the sketch is close (in the spectral norm) to the…
In this paper we explore the properties of a bounded linear operator defined on a Banach space, in light of operator norm attainment. Using Birkhoff-James orthogonality techniques, we give a necessary condition for a bounded linear operator…
The System of Linear Equations Problem (SLEP) is specified by a complex invertible matrix $A$, the condition number $\kappa$ of $A$, a vector $b$, a Hermitian matrix $M$ and an accuracy $\epsilon$, and the task is to estimate $x^\dagger…
We initiate the study of sub-linear sketching and streaming techniques for estimating the output size of common dictionary compressors such as Lempel-Ziv '77, the run-length Burrows-Wheeler transform, and grammar compression. To this end,…
Let $A,$ $T$ and $B$ be bounded linear operators on a Banach space. This paper is concerned mainly with finding some necessary and sufficient conditions for convergence in operator norm of the sequences $\left\{ A^{n}TB^{n}\right\} $ and…
This paper resolves one of the longest standing basic problems in the streaming computational model. Namely, optimal construction of quantile sketches. An $\varepsilon$ approximate quantile sketch receives a stream of items $x_1,\ldots,x_n$…
In this work, we consider the problem of sampling a $k$-clique in a graph from an almost uniform distribution in sublinear time in the general graph query model. Specifically the algorithm should output each $k$-clique with probability…
We develop an algorithm for estimating the values of a vector x in R^n over a support S of size k from a randomized sparse binary linear sketch Ax of size O(k). Given Ax and S, we can recover x' with ||x' - x_S||_2 <= eps ||x - x_S||_2 with…
Operator learning based on neural operators has emerged as a promising paradigm for the data-driven approximation of operators, mapping between infinite-dimensional Banach spaces. Despite significant empirical progress, our theoretical…
We prove tight lower bounds for the following variant of the counting problem considered by Aaronson, Kothari, Kretschmer, and Thaler (2020). The task is to distinguish whether an input set $x\subseteq [n]$ has size either $k$ or…
Deep neural networks (DNNs) have recently emerged as effective tools for approximating solution operators of partial differential equations (PDEs) including evolutionary problems. Classical numerical solvers for such PDEs often face…
By a theorem of Gordon and Hedenmalm, $\varphi$ generates a bounded composition operator on the Hilbert space $\mathscr{H}^2$ of Dirichlet series $\sum_n b_n n^{-s}$ with square-summable coefficients $b_n$ if and only if $\varphi(s)=c_0…
