We review the recent exact solution of a matrix model which interpolates between flat and random lattices. The importance of the results is twofold: Firstly, we have developed a new large N technique capable of treating a class of matrix…
We present an extension of two policy-iteration based algorithms on weighted graphs (viz., Markov Decision Problems and Max-Plus Algebras). This extension allows us to solve the following inverse problem: considering the weights of the…
We consider the matrix completion problem under a form of row/column weighted entrywise sampling, including the case of uniform entrywise sampling as a special case. We analyze the associated random observation operator, and prove that with…
We investigate the existence of heavy columns in binary matrices with distinct rows. A column of an m x n binary matrix is called heavy if the number of ones in it is at least m/2. We introduce two recursive algorithms, A1 and A2, that…
We exactly solve a special matrix model of dually weighted planar graphs describing pure two-dimensional quantum gravity with an R^2 interaction. It permits us to study the intermediate regimes between the gravitating and flat metric. Flat…
A conjecture of May states that there is an up-to-adjunction strictification of symmetric bimonoidal functors between bipermutative categories. The main result of this paper proves a weaker form of May's conjecture that starts with…
We make use of the improved K-matrix algorithm to obtain unitarized amplitudes in $R+\alpha R^2$ gravity (the so-called Starobisnsky model, of cosmological relevance). The procedure is of some complexity because infrared divergences are…
This note generalizes factorization for formulas with multiplicities and conjectures that the connection method along with this feature is computationally as powerful as resolution, also seen from a complexity point of view.
A recent approach to the Beck-Fiala conjecture, a fundamental problem in combinatorics, has been to understand when random integer matrices have constant discrepancy. We give a complete answer to this question for two natural models:…
This is a PhD thesis about generated Jacobian equations; our purpose is twofold. First, we provide an introduction to these equations, whilst, at the same time, collating some results scattered throughout the literature. The other goal is…
Given an element $f$ in a regular local ring, we study matrix factorizations of $f$ with $d \ge 2$ factors, that is, we study tuples of square matrices $(\varphi_1,\varphi_2,\dots,\varphi_d)$ such that their product is $f$ times an identity…
We derive formulas for the Fourier coefficients of $|f|^2$, where $f(z_1,z_2)=(1-\frac{z_1+z_2}{r})^{-\alpha}$, in terms of hypergeometric functions. Using these formulas we provide additional counterexamples to the weak Shanks conjecture,…
In this short note, we find an equivalent combinatorial condition only involving finite sums under which a centered Gaussian random vector with multinomial covariance matrix satisfies the Gaussian product inequality (GPI) conjecture. These…
This paper addresses the numerical solution of the matrix square root problem. Two fixed point iterations are proposed by rearranging the nonlinear matrix equation $A - X^2 = 0$ and incorporating a positive scaling parameter. The proposals…
Affine matrix rank minimization problem is a fundamental problem with a lot of important applications in many fields. It is well known that this problem is combinatorial and NP-hard in general. In this paper, a continuous promoting low rank…
This paper is devoted to the study of quantitative weighted norm estimates for martingale square functions in both scalar-weighted and matrix-weighted settings. In particular, we introduce the martingale square functions $S_W$ via matrix…
We prove a conjecture of H.Widom stated in [W] (math/0108008) about the reality of eigenvalues of certain infinite matrices arising in asymptotic analysis of large Toeplitz determinants. As a byproduct we obtain a new proof of A.Okounkov's…
We consider a general family of Carleson sequences associated with dyadic $A_2$ weights and find sharp -- or, in one case, simply best known -- upper and lower bounds for their Carleson norms in terms of the $A_2$-characteristic of the…
Let $f$ be a monic quadratic polynomial over a finite field of odd characteristic. In 2012, Boston and Jones constructed a Markov process based on the post-critical orbit of $f$, and conjectured that its limiting distribution explains the…
A generalization of Young's inequality for convolution with sharp constant is conjectured for scenarios where more than two functions are being convolved, and it is proven for certain parameter ranges. The conjecture would provide a unified…
