In this paper we consider $m$ ($m \geq 1$)conjunctions of Max-atoms that is atoms of the form $\max(z,y) + r \geq x$, where the offset $r$ is a real constant and $x,y,z$ are variables. We show that the Max-atom problem (MAP) belongs to…
For over a decade now we have been witnessing the success of {\em massive parallel computation} (MPC) frameworks, such as MapReduce, Hadoop, Dryad, or Spark. One of the reasons for their success is the fact that these frameworks are able to…
The matrix low-rank approximation problem with additional convex constraints can find many applications and has been extensively studied before. However, this problem is shown to be nonconvex and NP-hard; most of the existing solutions are…

A new matrix product, called the semi-tensor product (STP), is briefly reviewed. The STP extends the classical matrix product to two arbitrary matrices. Under STP the set of matrices becomes a monoid (semi-group with identity). Some related…

Assume that the eigenvalues of a finite hermitian linear operator have been deduced accurately but the linear operator itself could not be determined with precision. Given a set of eigenvalues $\lambda$ and a hermitian matrix $M$, this…
A real square matrix $A$ is called a $Q$-matrix if the linear complementarity problem $LCP(A,q)$ has a solution for all $q \in \mathbb{R}^n$. This means that for every vector $q$ there exists a vector $x$ such that $x \geq 0, y=Ax+q\geq 0$…

The aim of the paper is to find representation for solutions of $2\times 2$ system of ordinary differential equations $$ \mathbf{y^\prime} - B(x)\mathbf{y} = \lambda A(x)\mathbf{y}, \quad \ x \in [0, 1], $$ where $A(x) = diag\{a_1(x),…
Multi-block separable convex problems recently received considerable attention. This class of optimization problems minimizes a separable convex objective function with linear constraints. The algorithmic challenges come from the fact that…
In this paper, we develop efficient decoders for non-binary low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes using the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM). We apply ADMM to two decoding problems. The first problem is linear programming…
The matching problem between two adjacency matrices can be formulated as the NP-hard quadratic assignment problem (QAP). Previous work on semidefinite programming (SDP) relaxations to the QAP have produced solutions that are often tight in…
