We consider fast, provably accurate algorithms for approximating functions on the $d$-dimensional torus, $f: \mathbb{ T }^d \rightarrow \mathbb{C}$, that are sparse (or compressible) in the Fourier basis. In particular, suppose that the…

The Hausdorff distance is a metric commonly used to compute the set similarity of geometric sets. For sets containing a total of $n$ points, the exact distance can be computed na\"{i}vely in $O(n^2)$ time. In this paper, we show how to…

We study the problem of interpolating a noisy Fourier-sparse signal in the time duration $[0, T]$ from noisy samples in the same range, where the ground truth signal can be any $k$-Fourier-sparse signal with band-limit $[-F, F]$. Our main…

We assume the permutation $\pi$ is given by an $n$-element array in which the $i$-th element denotes the value $\pi(i)$. Constructing its inverse in-place (i.e. using $O(\log{n})$ bits of additional memory) can be achieved in linear time…

Statistical and machine-learning algorithms are frequently applied to high-dimensional data. In many of these applications data is scarce, and often much more costly than computation time. We provide the first sample-efficient…

We give a polynomial-time approximation algorithm for the (not necessarily metric) $k$-Median problem. The algorithm is an $\alpha$-size-approximation algorithm for $\alpha < 1 + 2 \ln(n/k)$. That is, it guarantees a solution having size at…

One of the prominent open problems in combinatorics is the discrepancy of set systems where each element lies in at most $t$ sets. The Beck-Fiala conjecture suggests that the right bound is $O(\sqrt{t})$, but for three decades the only…
