Cilleruelo conjectured that if $f\in\mathbb{Z}[x]$ of degree $d\ge 2$ is irreducible over the rationals, then $\log\operatorname{lcm}(f(1),\ldots,f(N))\sim(d-1)N\log N$ as $N\to\infty$. He proved it for the case $d = 2$. Very recently,…

Lower bounds against strong algebraic proof systems and specifically fragments of the Ideal Proof System (IPS), have been obtained in an ongoing line of work. All of these bounds, however, are proved only over large (or characteristic $0$)…

Elementary symmetric polynomials $S_n^k$ are used as a benchmark for the bounded-depth arithmetic circuit model of computation. In this work we prove that $S_n^k$ modulo composite numbers $m=p_1p_2$ can be computed with much fewer…

DeepLLL algorithm (Schnorr, 1994) is a famous variant of LLL lattice basis reduction algorithm, and PotLLL algorithm (Fontein et al., 2014) and $S^2$LLL algorithm (Yasuda and Yamaguchi, 2019) are recent polynomial-time variants of DeepLLL…

We study the minimum number of constraints needed to formulate random instances of the maximum stable set problem via linear programs (LPs), in two distinct models. In the uniform model, the constraints of the LP are not allowed to depend…

A polynomial identity testing algorithm must determine whether an input polynomial (given for instance by an arithmetic circuit) is identically equal to 0. In this paper, we show that a deterministic black-box identity testing algorithm for…

The method of shifted partial derivatives was used to prove a super-polynomial lower bound on the size of depth four circuits needed to compute the permanent. We show that this method alone cannot prove that the padded permanent $\ell^{n-m}…

For codes equipped with metrics such as Hamming metric, symbol pair metric or cover metric, the Johnson bound guarantees list-decodability of such codes. That is, the Johnson bound provides a lower bound on the list-decoding radius of a…

In this paper we associate to each multivariate polynomial $f$ that is homogeneous relative to a subset of its variables a series of polynomial families $P_\lambda (f)$ of $m$-tuples of homogeneous polynomials of equal degree such that the…

The framework of algebraically natural proofs was independently introduced in the works of Forbes, Shpilka and Volk (2018), and Grochow, Kumar, Saks and Saraf (2017), to study the efficacy of commonly used techniques for proving lower…

In this paper we derive aggregate separation bounds, named after Davenport-Mahler-Mignotte (\dmm), on the isolated roots of polynomial systems, specifically on the minimum distance between any two such roots. The bounds exploit the…

Low-degree polynomials have emerged as a powerful paradigm for providing evidence of statistical-computational gaps across a variety of high-dimensional statistical models [Wein25]. For detection problems -- where the goal is to test a…

We consider equation systems of the form X_1 = f_1(X_1, ..., X_n), ..., X_n = f_n(X_1, ..., X_n) where f_1, ..., f_n are polynomials with positive real coefficients. In vector form we denote such an equation system by X = f(X) and call f a…

In this work, we establish separation theorems for several subsystems of the Ideal Proof System (IPS), an algebraic proof system introduced by Grochow and Pitassi (J. ACM, 2018). Separation theorems are well-studied in the context of…

Deriving sharp and computable upper bounds of the Lipschitz constant of deep neural networks is crucial to formally guarantee the robustness of neural-network based models. We analyse three existing upper bounds written for the $l^2$ norm.…

Strong algebraic proof systems such as IPS (Ideal Proof System; Grochow-Pitassi [GP18]) offer a general model for deriving polynomials in an ideal and refuting unsatisfiable propositional formulas, subsuming most standard propositional…

There has been significant work recently on integer programs (IPs) $\min\{c^\top x \colon Ax\leq b,\,x\in \mathbb{Z}^n\}$ with a constraint marix $A$ with bounded subdeterminants. This is motivated by a well-known conjecture claiming that,…
