The Ideal Membership Problem (IMP) tests if an input polynomial $f\in \mathbb{F}[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ with coefficients from a field $\mathbb{F}$ belongs to a given ideal $I \subseteq \mathbb{F}[x_1,\dots,x_n]$. It is a well-known fundamental…
In this paper we consider the Ideal Membership Problem (IMP for short), in which we are given real polynomials $f_0,f_1,\dots, f_k$ and the question is to decide whether $f_0$ belongs to the ideal generated by $f_1,\dots,f_k$. In the more…
Given polynomials $f_0,\dots, f_k$ the Ideal Membership Problem, IMP for short, asks if $f_0$ belongs to the ideal generated by $f_1,\dots, f_k$. In the search version of this problem the task is to find a proof of this fact. The IMP is a…
Given an ideal $I$ and a polynomial $f$ the Ideal Membership Problem is to test if $f\in I$. This problem is a fundamental algorithmic problem with important applications and notoriously intractable. We study the complexity of the Ideal…
We present a new approach to the ideal membership problem for polynomial rings over the integers: given polynomials $f_0,f_1,...,f_n\in\Z[X]$, where $X=(X_1,...,X_N)$ is an $N$-tuple of indeterminates, are there $g_1,...,g_n\in\Z[X]$ such…
For a tuple of $k+1$ convex polytopes $(A, B,\ldots, B)$ we solve the so-called effective membership problem, i.e. for a tuple $f=(f_1,\ldots, f_k)$ of polynomials satisfying some certain properties of generality and having Newton polytope…
Let $\mathbb{F}[X]$ be the polynomial ring over the variables $X=\{x_1,x_2, \ldots, x_n\}$. An ideal $I=\langle p_1(x_1), \ldots, p_n(x_n)\rangle$ generated by univariate polynomials $\{p_i(x_i)\}_{i=1}^n$ is a \emph{univariate ideal}. We…
The main result of this paper is the decidability of the membership problem for $2\times 2$ nonsingular integer matrices. Namely, we will construct the first algorithm that for any nonsingular $2\times 2$ integer matrices $M_1,\dots,M_n$…
We discuss the possibility of representing elements in polynomial ideals in $\C^N$ with optimal degree bounds. Classical theorems due to Macaulay and Max Noether say that such a representation is possible under certain conditions on the…
Many natural combinatorial problems can be expressed as constraint satisfaction problems. This class of problems is known to be NP-complete in general, but certain restrictions on the form of the constraints can ensure tractability. The…
A cofactor representation of an ideal element, that is, a representation in terms of the generators, can be considered as a certificate for ideal membership. Such a representation is typically not unique, and some can be a lot more…
In the Boolean maximum constraint satisfaction problem - Max CSP$(\Gamma)$ - one is given a collection of weighted applications of constraints from a finite constraint language $\Gamma$, over a common set of variables, and the goal is to…
The degree of a CSP instance is the maximum number of times that any variable appears in the scopes of constraints. We consider the approximate counting problem for Boolean CSP with bounded-degree instances, for constraint languages…
We prove that the ideal membership problem and the subalgebra membership problem are algorithmically undecidable for differential polynomial algebras with at least two basic derivation operators.
The degree of a CSP instance is the maximum number of times that a variable may appear in the scope of constraints. We consider the approximate counting problem for Boolean CSPs with bounded-degree instances, for constraint languages…
We use residue currents on toric varieties to obtain bounds on the degrees of solutions to polynomial ideal membership problems. Our bounds depend on (the volume of) the Newton polytope of the polynomial system and are therefore well…
The purpose of this paper is to provide efficient algorithms that decide membership for classes of several Boolean hierarchies for which efficiency (or even decidability) were previously not known. We develop new forbidden-chain…
Set-membership estimation is usually formulated in the context of set-valued calculus and no probabilistic calculations are necessary. In this paper, we show that set-membership estimation can be equivalently formulated in the probabilistic…
In the maximum constraint satisfaction problem (Max CSP), one is given a finite collection of (possibly weighted) constraints on overlapping sets of variables, and the goal is to assign values from a given domain to the variables so as to…
Integer programs (IPs) on constraint matrices with bounded subdeterminants are conjectured to be solvable in polynomial time. We give a strongly polynomial time algorithm to solve IPs where the constraint matrix has bounded subdeterminants…
