We consider the algorithm by Ferson et al. (Reliable computing 11(3), p. 207-233, 2005) designed for solving the NP-hard problem of computing the maximal sample variance over interval data, motivated by robust statistics (in fact, the…

In this paper, we present novel deterministic algorithms for multiplying two $n \times n$ matrices approximately. Given two matrices $A,B$ we return a matrix $C'$ which is an \emph{approximation} to $C = AB$. We consider the notion of…

For given positive integers $a_1,a_2,\dots,a_k$ with $\gcd(a_1,a_2,\dots,a_k)=1$, the denumerant $d(n)=d(n;a_1,a_2,\dots,a_k)$ is the number of nonnegative solutions $(x_1,x_2,\dots,x_k)$ of the linear equation $a_1 x_1+a_2 x_2+\dots+a_k…

The intention of this note is two-fold. First, we study integer optimization problems in standard form defined by $A \in\mathbb{Z}^{m\times{}n}$ and present an algorithm to solve such problems in polynomial-time provided that both the…

The Bin Packing Problem is one of the most important optimization problems. In recent years, due to its NP-hard nature, several approximation algorithms have been presented. It is proved that the best algorithm for the Bin Packing Problem…

We discuss classical and quantum algorithms for solvability testing and finding integer solutions x,y of equations of the form af^x + bg^y = c over finite fields GF(q). A quantum algorithm with time complexity q^(3/8) (log q)^O(1) is…

Let S be a map from a language L to the integers satisfying S(vw)=S(v)+S(w) for all words v,w from the language. The classical Frobenius problem asks whether the complement of S(L) in the natural numbers will be infinite or finite, and in…

Inspired by Armin Straub's conjecture (arXiv:1601.07161) about the number and maximal size of (2n+1, 2n+3)-core partitions with distinct parts, we develop relatively efficient, symbolic-computational algorithms, based on non-linear…

We present a method of representing an element of $\mathbb{F}_3^n$ as an element of $\mathbb{F}_n^2 \times \mathbb{F}_n^2$ which in practice will be a pair of unsigned integers. We show how to do addition, subtraction and pointwise…

The nonlinearity of a Boolean function is a key property in deciding its suitability for cryptographic purposes, e.g. as a combining function in stream ciphers, and so the nonlinearity computation is an important problem for applications.…

Fourier series of smooth, non-periodic functions on $[-1,1]$ are known to exhibit the Gibbs phenomenon, and exhibit overall slow convergence. One way of overcoming these problems is by using a Fourier series on a larger domain, say $[-T,T]$…
