The $\ell_p$ linear regression problem is to minimize $f(x)=||Ax-b||_p$ over $x\in\mathbb{R}^d$, where $A\in\mathbb{R}^{n\times d}$, $b\in \mathbb{R}^n$, and $p>0$. To avoid overfitting and bound $||x||_2$, the constrained $\ell_p$…

We establish deterministic hardness of approximation results for the Shortest Vector Problem in $\ell_p$ norm ($\mathsf{SVP}_p$) and for Unique-SVP ($\mathsf{uSVP}_p$) for all $p > 2$. Previously, no deterministic hardness results were…
The $\ell_p$-norm regression problem is a classic problem in optimization with wide ranging applications in machine learning and theoretical computer science. The goal is to compute $x^{\star} =\arg\min_{Ax=b}\|x\|_p^p$, where $x^{\star}\in…
We consider the problem of computing the (two-sided) Hausdorff distance between the unit $\ell_{p_{1}}$ and $\ell_{p_{2}}$ norm balls in finite dimensional Euclidean space for $1 \leq p_1 < p_2 \leq \infty$, and derive a closed-form formula…
