We show that for the problem of minimizing (or maximizing) the ratio of two supermodular functions, no bounded approximation ratio can be achieved via polynomial number of queries, if the two supermodular functions are both monotone…
Originally developed for imputing missing entries in low rank, or approximately low rank matrices, matrix completion has proven widely effective in many problems where there is no reason to assume low-dimensional linear structure in the…
Consider a class of simplices defined by systems $A x \leq b$ of linear inequalities with $\Delta$-modular matrices. A matrix is called $\Delta$-modular, if all its rank-order sub-determinants are bounded by $\Delta$ in an absolute value.…

The nonnegative integer rank of a matrix is a variant of the classical nonnegative rank, introduced in the 1980s, where factorizations are required to have integer entries. While computing nonnegative integer rank is generally very hard, we…
Let 1_k 0_l denote the (k+l)\times 1 column of k 1's above l 0's. Let q. (1_k 0_l) $ denote the (k+l)xq matrix with q copies of the column 1_k0_l. A 2-design S_{\lambda}(2,3,v) can be defined as a vx(\lambda/3)\binom{v}{2} (0,1)-matrix with…
In solving a system of $n$ linear equations in $d$ variables $Ax=b$, the condition number of the $n,d$ matrix $A$ measures how much errors in the data $b$ affect the solution $x$. Estimates of this type are important in many inverse…
