The change-making problem consists of representing a certain amount of money with the least possible number of coins, from a given, pre-established set of denominations. The greedy algorithm works by choosing the coins of largest possible…
We delve into the connection between base $\frac{3}{2}$ and the greedy partition of non-negative integers into 3-free sequences. Specifically, we find a fractal structure on strings written with digits 0, 1, and 2. We use this structure to…
We give criteria for finding the greedy $\beta$-expansion for $1$ for families of Salem numbers that approach a given Pisot number. We show that these expansions are related to the greedy expansion under the Pisot base. This expands on the…

Expansion of real numbers is a basic research topic in number theory. Usually we expand real numbers in one given base. In this paper, we begin to systematically study expansions in multiple given bases in a reasonable way, which is a…
The main goal of this paper is twofold. First, we extend some results known in the case of weak greedy algorithms with a scalar parameter to the case of weak greedy algorithms with a weakness sequence. Second, we formulate a new setting of…
The fact that finite direct sums of two or more mutually different spaces from the family $\{\ell_{p} : 1\le p<\infty\}\cup c_{0}$ fail to have greedy bases is stated in [Dilworth et al., Greedy bases for Besov spaces, Constr. Approx. 34…
We describe a very general abstract form of sieve based on a large sieve inequality which generalizes both the classical sieve inequality of Montgomery (and its higher-dimensional variants), and our recent sieve for Frobenius over function…
We show that for quasi-greedy bases in real or complex Banach spaces the error of the thresholding greedy algorithm of order N is bounded by the best N- term error of approximation times a function of N which depends on the democracy…
In this paper we propose a unified way of analyzing a certain kind of greedy-type algorithms in Banach spaces. We define a class of the Weak Biorthogonal Greedy Algorithms that contains a wide range of greedy algorithms. In particular, we…
The random greedy algorithm for constructing a large partial Steiner-Triple-System is defined as follows. Begin with a complete graph on $n$ vertices and proceed to remove the edges of triangles one at a time, where each triangle removed is…
Submodular maximization has been widely studied over the past decades, mostly because of its numerous applications in real-world problems. It is well known that the standard greedy algorithm guarantees a worst-case approximation factor of…
Identifying the structure of a partially observed causal system is essential to various scientific fields. Recent advances have focused on constraint-based causal discovery to solve this problem, and yet in practice these methods often face…
In \cite{O2015}, T. Oikhberg introduced and studied variants of the greedy and weak greedy algorithms for sequences with gaps. In this paper, we extend some of the notions that appear naturally in connection with these algorithms to the…
A countable, bounded degree graph is almost finite if it has a tiling with isomorphic copies of finitely many F\o lner sets, and we call it strongly almost finite, if the tiling can be randomized so that the probability that a vertex is on…
