Multi-homogeneous polynomial systems arise in many applications. We provide bit complexity estimates for solving them which, up to a few extra other factors, are quadratic in the number of solutions and linear in the height of the input…
We describe algorithms for computing eigenpairs (eigenvalue-eigenvector pairs) of a complex $n\times n$ matrix $A$. These algorithms are numerically stable, strongly accurate, and theoretically efficient (i.e., polynomial-time). We do not…
In various areas of applied numerics, the problem of calculating the logarithm of a matrix A emerges. Since series expansions of the logarithm usually do not converge well for matrices far away from the identity, the standard numerical…

We show that the number of solutions of Schroedinger Maxwell system on a smooth bounded domain in R^3 depends on the topological properties of the domain. In particular we consider the Lusternik-Schnirelmann category and the Poincar\'e…
We present detailed computations of the 'at least finite' terms (three dominant orders) of the free energy in a one-cut matrix model with a hard edge a, in beta-ensembles, with any polynomial potential. beta is a positive number, so not…
In this paper we study the equation \[ -\Delta u +(\log |\cdot|*|u|^2)u=(\log|\cdot|*|u|^q)|u|^{q-2}u, \qquad \hbox{ in }\mathbb{R}^2, \] where $8/3 < q < 4$. By means of variational arguments, we find infinitely many radially symmetric…

We propose a numerical method for evaluating eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of Schr\"odinger operators with general confining potentials. The method is selective in the sense that only the eigenvalue closest to a chosen input energy is…

We investigate the differentiability of minimal average energy associated to the functionals $S_\ep (u) = \int_{\mathbb{R}^d} (1/2)|\nabla u|^2 + \ep V(x,u)\, dx$, using numerical and perturbative methods. We use the Sobolev gradient…
We derive upper bounds for the potential energy of spherical designs of cardinality close to the Delsarte-Goethals-Seidel bound. These bounds are obtained by linear programming with the use of the Hermite interpolating polynomial of the…
Distributing points on a (possibly high-dimensional) sphere with minimal energy is a long-standing problem in and outside the field of mathematics. This paper considers a novel energy function that arises naturally from statistics and…
This paper proposes a very simple perturbative technique to calculate the low-lying eigenvalues and eigenstates of a parity-symmetric quantum-mechanical potential. The technique is to solve the time-independent Schroedinger eigenvalue…
We revisit a classical question: how large is the minimal logarithmic energy of $n$ points on $\mathbb{S}^2$ $$ \mathcal{E}_{\log}(n) = \min_{x_1, \dots, x_n \in \mathbb{S}^2} \quad \sum_{i,j =1 \atop i \neq j}^{n}{…
We study the convergence properties of a pair of learning algorithms (learning with and without memory). This leads us to study the dominant eigenvalue of a class of random matrices. This turns out to be related to the roots of the…
We consider polynomials of degree $d$ with only real roots and a fixed value of discriminant, and study the problem of minimizing the absolute value of polynomials at a fixed point off the real line. There are two explicit families of…
