We study the problem of maximizing a monotone submodular set function subject to linear packing constraints. An instance of this problem consists of a matrix $A \in [0,1]^{m \times n}$, a vector $b \in [1,\infty)^m$, and a monotone…
In this paper, we prove effective upper bounds for effective sections of line bundles on projective varieties and hermitian line bundles on arithmetic varieties in terms of the volumes. They are effective versions of the Hilbert--Samuel…
After investigating the $3$-dimensional case [35], we continue to address and close the problems of optimal ball and horoball packings in truncated Coxeter orthoschemes with parallel faces that exist in $n$-dimensional hyperbolic space…
Hyperbolic Programming (HP) --minimizing a linear functional over an affine subspace of a finite-dimensional real vector space intersected with the so-called hyperbolicity cone-- is a class of convex optimization problems that contains…
This paper is concerned with the optimal convergence rate in homogenization of higher order parabolic systems with bounded measurable, rapidly oscillating periodic coefficients. The sharp $O(\va)$ convergence rate in the space $L^2(0,T;…
Delsarte's method and its extensions allow to consider the upper bound problem for codes in 2-point-homogeneous spaces as a linear programming problem with perhaps infinitely many variables, which are the distance distribution. We show that…
In this paper we give an algorithm to round the floating point output of a semidefinite programming solver to a solution over the rationals or a quadratic extension of the rationals. We apply this to get sharp bounds for packing problems,…
We study perfect codes in the sum-rank metric, a generalization of both the Hamming and rank metrics relevant in multishot network coding and space-time coding. A perfect code attains equality in the sphere-packing bound, corresponding to a…
Highly localized kernels constructed by orthogonal polynomials have been fundamental in recent development of approximation and computational analysis on the unit sphere, unit ball and several other regular domains. In this work we first…
We consider constellations of disks which are unions of disjoint hyperbolic disks in the unit disk with fixed radii and unfixed centers. We study the problem of maximizing the conformal capacity of a constellation with a fixed number of…
We prove that the lacunary spherical maximal operator, defined on the $n$-dimensional real hyperbolic space, is bounded on $L^p(\mathbb{H}^n)$ for all $n\ge2$ and $1<p\le\infty$. In particular, the lacunary set is significantly larger than…
The most powerful technique known at present for bounding the size of quantum codes of prescribed minimum distance is the quantum linear programming bound. Unlike the classical linear programming bound, it is not immediately obvious that if…
We study the sphere packing problem in Euclidean space where we impose additional constraints on the separations of the center points. We prove that any sphere packing in dimension $48$, with spheres of radii $r$, such that no two centers…
We use the lexicographic order to define a hierarchy of primal and dual bounds on the optimum of a bounded integer program. These bounds are constructed using lex maximal and minimal feasible points taken under different permutations. Their…
In this paper we formulate the problem of packing unequal rectangles/squares into a fixed size circular container as a mixed-integer nonlinear program. Here we pack rectangles so as to maximise some objective (e.g. maximise the number of…
More than 50 years ago, Golomb and Welch conjectured that there is no perfect Lee codes $C$ of packing radius $r$ in $\mathbb{Z}^{n}$ for $r\geq2$ and $n\geq 3$. Recently, Leung and the second author proved that if $C$ is linear, then the…
The Lov\'{a}sz theta number is a semidefinite programming bound on the clique number of (the complement of) a given graph. Given a vertex-transitive graph, every vertex belongs to a maximal clique, and so one can instead apply this…
We determine the optimal horoball packing densities for Koszul-type Coxeter simplex tilings in hyperbolic $3$-space. Using a parametrization of horoballs by the Busemann function and the symmetry of the tilings, we obtain families of…
We study the Hard Core Model on the graphs ${\rm {\bf \scriptstyle G}}$ obtained from Archimedean tilings i.e. configurations in $\scriptstyle \{0,1\}^{{\rm {\bf G}}}$ with the nearest neighbor 1's forbidden. Our particular aim in choosing…
We construct examples of inhomogeneous isoparametric real hypersurfaces in complex hyperbolic spaces.
