Many applications, including rank aggregation, crowd-labeling, and graphon estimation, can be modeled in terms of a bivariate isotonic matrix with unknown permutations acting on its rows and/or columns. We consider the problem of estimating…
In this paper we describe how to improve the performance of the symbolic-numeric method in (Li and Zhi,2009, 2011) for computing the multiplicity structure and refining approximate isolated singular solutions in the breadth one case. By…
A long-standing open question in Integer Programming is whether integer programs with constraint matrices with bounded subdeterminants are efficiently solvable. An important special case thereof are congruency-constrained integer programs…
We give an improved polynomial bound on the complexity of the equation solvability problem, or more generally, of finding the value sets of polynomials over finite nilpotent rings. Our proof depends on a result in additive combinatorics,…
This paper is concerned with the factorization and equivalence problems of multivariate polynomial matrices. We present some new criteria for the existence of matrix factorizations for a class of multivariate polynomial matrices, and obtain…
In this brief paper the probability density of a random real, complex and quaternion determinant is rederived using singular values. The behaviour of suitably rescaled random determinants is studied in the limit of infinite order of the…
We consider the binomial random set model $[n]_p$ where each element in $\{1,\dots,n\}$ is chosen independently with probability $p:=p(n)$. We show that for essentially all regimes of $p$ and very general conditions for a matrix $A$ and a…
We obtain new lower bounds on the number of smooth squarefree integers up to $x$ in residue classes modulo a prime $p$, relatively large compared to $x$, which in some ranges of $p$ and $x$ improve that of A. Balog and C. Pomerance (1992).…
Given a primitive collection of vectors in the integer lattice, we count the number of ways it can be extended to a basis by vectors with sup-norm bounded by $T$, producing an asymptotic estimate as $T \to \infty$. This problem can be…
The eigenproblem of low-rank updated matrices are of crucial importance in many applications. Recently, an upper bound on the number of distinct eigenvalues of a perturbed matrix was established. The result can be applied to estimate the…
Given a prime $p$ and a positive integer $k$, let $\mathrm{M}_{n}(\mathbb{Z}/p^{k}\mathbb{Z})$ be the ring of $n \times n$ matrices over $\mathbb{Z}/p^{k}\mathbb{Z}$. We consider the number of solutions $X \in…
We investigate some extremal problems in Fourier analysis and their connection to a problem in prime number theory. In particular, we improve the current bounds for the largest possible gap between consecutive primes assuming the Riemann…
We study the singularity probability of n*n random matrices with i.i.d. entries from highly biased discrete distributions. We obtain sharp non-asymptotic bounds for this probability and derive estimates on the least singular values. Our…
We discuss the problem to count, or, more modestly, to estimate the number f(m,n) of unimodular triangulations of the planar grid of size $m\times n$. Among other tools, we employ recursions that allow one to compute the (huge) number of…
Many upper bounds for the moduli of polynomial roots have been proposed but reportedly assessed on selected examples or restricted classes only. Regarding quality measured in terms of worst-case relative overestimation of the maximum…
In this paper, we investigate the stabilizers of certain multisets $\mod p^k$ with respect to their natural multiplicative action, completely describing them for a certain family of polynomials whenever $p$ is an odd prime. This elucidates…
We consider the problem of exact low-rank matrix completion from a geometric viewpoint: given a partially filled matrix M, we keep the positions of specified and unspecified entries fixed, and study how the minimal completion rank depends…
In this paper, we investigate generalizations of the Mahler-Popkens complexity of integers. Specifically, we generalize to $k$-th roots of unity, polynomials over the naturals, and the integers mod $m$. In cyclotomic rings, we establish…
This monograph considers a few topics in the theory of primitive roots g(p) modulo a prime p>=2. A few estimates of the least primitive roots g(p) and the least prime primitive roots g^*(p) modulo p, a large prime, are determined. One of…
In this paper we shed more light on determinants of interval matrices. Computing the exact bounds on a determinant of an interval matrix is an NP-hard problem. Therefore, attention is first paid to approximations. NP-hardness of both…
