This paper introduces two methods for verifying the singular values of the structured matrix denoted by $R^{-H}AR^{-1}$, where $R$ is a nonsingular matrix and $A$ is a general nonsingular square matrix. The first of the two methods uses the…

Univariate polynomial root-finding is a classical subject, still important for modern computing. Frequently one seeks just the real roots of a real coefficient polynomial. They can be approximated at a low computational cost if the…

We introduce the parametric matroid one-interdiction problem. Given a matroid, each element of its ground set is associated with a weight that depends linearly on a real parameter from a given parameter interval. The goal is to find, for…
We prove an optimal estimate on the smallest singular value of a random subgaussian matrix, valid for all fixed dimensions. For an N by n matrix A with independent and identically distributed subgaussian entries, the smallest singular value…
In many applications, it is of interest to approximate data, given by mxn matrix A, by a matrix B of at most rank k, which is much smaller than m and n. The best approximation is given by singular value decomposition, which is too time…
