We prove various theorems on approximation using polynomials with integer coefficients in the Bernstein basis of any given order. In the extreme, we draw the coefficients from $\{ \pm 1\}$ only. A basic case of our results states that for…

We improve the Modified Winitzki's Approximation of the error function $erf(x)\cong \sqrt{1-e^{-x^2\frac{\frac{4}{\pi}+0.147x^2}{1+0.147x^2}}}$ which has error $|\varepsilon (x)| < 1.25 \cdot 10^{-4}$ $\forall x \ge 0$ till reaching 4…

In this article, we develop a new method to approximate numerically the fractional Laplacian of functions defined on $\mathbb R$, as well as some more general singular integrals. After mapping $\mathbb R$ into a finite interval, we…

We prove the quasi-optimal convergence of a standard adaptive finite element method (AFEM) for nonlinear elliptic second-order equations of monotone type. The adaptive algorithm is based on residual-type a posteriori error estimators and…

Approximate Counting refers to the problem where we are given query access to a function $f : [N] \to \{0,1\}$, and we wish to estimate $K = #\{x : f(x) = 1\}$ to within a factor of $1+\epsilon$ (with high probability), while minimizing the…

Classical results show that gradient descent converges linearly to minimizers of smooth strongly convex functions. A natural question is whether there exists a locally nearly linearly convergent method for nonsmooth functions with quadratic…
