We consider the Online Boolean Matrix-Vector Multiplication (OMV) problem studied by Henzinger et al. [STOC'15]: given an $n \times n$ Boolean matrix $M$, we receive $n$ Boolean vectors $v_1,\ldots,v_n$ one at a time, and are required to…
We show that every n-by-n matrix is generically a product of [n/2] + 1 Toeplitz matrices and always a product of at most 2n+5 Toeplitz matrices. The same result holds true if the word "Toeplitz" is replaced by "Hankel", and the generic…
Motivated by the problems of computing sample covariance matrices, and of transforming a collection of vectors to a basis where they are sparse, we present a simple algorithm that computes an approximation of the product of two n-by-n real…
In this article, we discuss a novel approach to solving number sequence problems, in which sequences of numbers following unstated rules are given, and missing terms are to be inferred. We develop a methodology of decomposing test sequences…
In the monotone integer dualization problem, we are given two sets of vectors in an integer box such that no vector in the first set is dominated by a vector in the second. The question is to check if the two sets of vectors cover the…
We study several variants of decomposing a symmetric matrix into a sum of a low-rank positive semidefinite matrix and a diagonal matrix. Such decompositions have applications in factor analysis and they have been studied for many decades.…
There have been several algorithms designed to optimise matrix multiplication. From schoolbook method with complexity $O(n^3)$ to advanced tensor-based tools with time complexity $O(n^{2.3728639})$ (lowest possible bound achieved), a lot of…
The Nystr\"{o}m method is routinely used for out-of-sample extension of kernel matrices. We describe how this method can be applied to find the singular value decomposition (SVD) of general matrices and the eigenvalue decomposition (EVD) of…
In calculating integral or discrete transforms, use has been made of fast algorithms for multiplying vectors by matrices whose elements are specified as values of special (Chebyshev, Legendre, Laguerre, etc.) functions. The currently…
The 1-product of matrices $S_1 \in \mathbb{R}^{m_1 \times n_1}$ and $S_2 \in \mathbb{R}^{m_2 \times n_2}$ is the matrix in $\mathbb{R}^{(m_1+m_2) \times (n_1n_2)}$ whose columns are the concatenation of each column of $S_1$ with each column…
Min-plus product of two $n\times n$ matrices is a fundamental problem in algorithm research. It is known to be equivalent to APSP, and in general it has no truly subcubic algorithms. In this paper, we focus on the min-plus product on a…
We consider algorithms with access to an unknown matrix $M\in\mathbb{F}^{n \times d}$ via matrix-vector products, namely, the algorithm chooses vectors $\mathbf{v}^1, \ldots, \mathbf{v}^q$, and observes $M\mathbf{v}^1,\ldots,…
Given as input two $n$-element sets $\mathcal A,\mathcal B\subseteq\{0,1\}^d$ with $d=c\log n\leq(\log n)^2/(\log\log n)^4$ and a target $t\in \{0,1,\ldots,d\}$, we show how to count the number of pairs $(x,y)\in \mathcal A\times \mathcal…
The goal of this paper is to get truly subcubic algorithms for Min-Plus product for less structured inputs than what was previously known, and to apply them to versions of All-Pairs Shortest Paths (APSP) and other problems. The results are…
It is widely known that the lower bound for the algorithmic complexity of square matrix multiplication resorts to at least $n^2$ arithmetic operations. The justification builds upon the following reasoning: given that there are $2 n^2$…
Let ${\cal X }=XX^{\prime}$ be a random matrix associated with a centered $r$-column centered Gaussian vector $X$ with a covariance matrix $P$. In this article we compute expectations of matrix-products of the form $\prod_{1\leq i\leq…
What is the time complexity of matrix multiplication of sparse integer matrices with $m_{in}$ nonzeros in the input and $m_{out}$ nonzeros in the output? This paper provides improved upper bounds for this question for almost any choice of…
An arbitrary $m\times n$ Boolean matrix $M$ can be decomposed {\em exactly} as $M =U\circ V$, where $U$ (resp. $V$) is an $m\times k$ (resp. $k\times n$) Boolean matrix and $\circ$ denotes the Boolean matrix multiplication operator. We…
Many data analysis applications deal with large matrices and involve approximating the matrix using a small number of ``components.'' Typically, these components are linear combinations of the rows and columns of the matrix, and are thus…
Decomposing a matrix into a weighted sum of Pauli strings is a common chore of the quantum computer scientist, whom is not easily discouraged by exponential scaling. But beware, a naive decomposition can be cubically more expensive than…
