In this paper, we reduce the general linear integral equation of the third kind in $L^2(Y,\mu)$, with largely arbitrary kernel and coefficient, to an equivalent integral equation either of the second kind or of the first kind in…

The present paper studies an operator norm that captures the distinguishability of quantum strategies in the same sense that the trace norm captures the distinguishability of quantum states or the diamond norm captures the…

Graph separation and partitioning are fundamental problems that have been extensively studied both in theory and practice. The \textsc{$p$-Size Separator} problem, closely related to the \textsc{Balanced Separator} problem, is to check…

We introduce a projective Riesz $s$-kernel for the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{d-1}$ and investigate properties of $N$-point energy minimizing configurations for such a kernel. We show that these configurations, for $s$ and $N$ sufficiently…

We prove an upper bound on long-range distillable entanglement in $D$ spatial dimensions. Namely, it must decay faster than $1/r$, where $r$ is the distance between entangled regions. For states that are asymptotically rotationally…

The Maximum Mean Discrepancy (MMD) is a cornerstone statistic for nonparametric two-sample testing, but its test power is dictated entirely by the chosen kernel. Because any fixed kernel inherently fails to distinguish certain…

We study the pairwise entanglement close to separable ground states of a class of one dimensional quantum spin models. At T=0 we find that such ground states separate regions, in the space of the Hamiltonian parameters, which are…

Finding the most parsimonious tree inside a phylogenetic network with respect to a given character is an NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem that for many network topologies is essentially inapproximable. In contrast, if the network…

Given an orthogonal connected arrangement of line-segments, Minimum Corridor Guarding(MCG) problem asks for an optimal tree/closed walk such that, if a guard moves through the tree/closed walk, all the line-segments are visited by the…

We study multivariate linear tensor product problems with some special properties in the worst case setting. We consider algorithms that use finitely many continuous linear functionals. We use a unified method to investigate tractability of…

We present and study approximate notions of dimensional and margin complexity, which correspond to the minimal dimension or norm of an embedding required to approximate, rather then exactly represent, a given hypothesis class. We show that…

We construct an example of a purely unrectifiable measure $\mu$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ for which the singular integrals associated to the kernels $\displaystyle{K(x)=\frac{P_{2k+1}(x)}{|x|^{2k+d}}}$, with $k\geq 1$ and $P_{2k+1}$ a homogeneous…

We introduce a distance between kernels based on the Wasserstein distances between their values, study its properties, and prove that it is a metric on an appropriately defined space of kernels. We also relate it to various modes of…

We consider a binary erasure version of the n-channel multiple descriptions problem with symmetric descriptions, i.e., the rates of the n descriptions are the same and the distortion constraint depends only on the number of messages…

Finding the closest separable state to a given target state is a notoriously difficult task, even more difficult than deciding whether a state is entangled or separable. To tackle this task, we parametrize separable states with a neural…

One of the most challenging problems in quantum physics is to quantify the entanglement of $d$-partite states and their separability. We show here that these problems are best addressed using tensors. The geometric measure of entanglement…
