We present an algorithm that given any $n$-vertex, $m$-edge, rank $r$ hypergraph constructs a spectral sparsifier with $O(n \varepsilon^{-2} \log n \log r)$ hyperedges in nearly-linear $\widetilde{O}(mr)$ time. This improves in both size…

How might one "reduce" a graph? That is, generate a smaller graph that preserves the global structure at the expense of discarding local details? There has been extensive work on both graph sparsification (removing edges) and graph…
Sparse grids are tailored to the approximation of smooth high-dimensional functions. On a $d$-dimensional tensor product space, the number of grid points is $N = \mathcal O(h^{-1} |\log h|^{d-1})$, where $h$ is a mesh parameter. The…
