The random matrix uniformly distributed over the set of all m-by-n matrices over a finite field plays an important role in many branches of information theory. In this paper a generalization of this random matrix, called k-good random…

A problem of Banach asks whether every infinite-dimensional Banach space which is isomorphic to all its infinite-dimensional subspaces must be isomorphic to a separable Hilbert space. In this paper we prove a result of a Ramsey-theoretic…

A frequently studied performance measure in online optimization is competitive analysis. It corresponds to the worst-case ratio, over all possible inputs of an algorithm, between the performance of the algorithm and the optimal offline…

For any resource theory it is essential to identify tasks for which resource objects offer advantage over free objects. We show that this identification can always be accomplished for resource theories of quantum measurements in which free…

This paper is concerned with model order reduction of parametric Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) using tree-based library approximations. Classical approaches are formulated for PDEs on Hilbert spaces and involve one single linear…

In this paper, we propose a metric on the space of finite sets of trajectories for assessing multi-target tracking algorithms in a mathematically sound way. The main use of the metric is to compare estimates of trajectories from different…

We consider a generalisation of the classical Ramsey theory setting to a setting where each of the edges of the underlying host graph is coloured with a {\em set} of colours (instead of just one colour). We give bounds for monochromatic…

A subspace of matrices over $\mathbb{F}_{q^e}^{m\times n}$ can be naturally embedded as a subspace of matrices in $\mathbb{F}_q^{em\times en}$ with the property that the rank of any of its matrix is a multiple of $e$. It is quite natural to…

Regression trees are one of the oldest forms of AI models, and their predictions can be made without a calculator, which makes them broadly useful, particularly for high-stakes applications. Within the large literature on regression trees,…

Probabilistic metric embedding into trees is a powerful technique for designing online algorithms. The standard approach is to embed the entire underlying metric into a tree metric and then solve the problem on the latter. The overhead in…

This work continues to investigate the link between differentially private (DP) and online learning. Alon, Livni, Malliaris, and Moran (2019) showed that for binary concept classes, DP learnability of a given class implies that it has a…

A Ramsey-like theorem is a statement of the form ``For every 2-coloring of $[\mathbb{N}]^2$, there exists an infinite set~$H \subseteq \mathbb{N}$ such that $[H]^2$ avoids some pattern''. We prove that none of these statements are…

The rooted tree is an important data structure, and the subtree size, height, and depth are naturally defined attributes of every node. We consider the problem of the existence of a k-ary tree given a list of attribute sequences. We give…

We initiate the study of a natural and practically relevant new variant of online caching where the to-be-cached items can have dependencies. We assume that the universe is a tree T and items are tree nodes; we require that if a node v is…

We investigate the behavior of countable Borel equivalence relations (CBERs) on topological Ramsey spaces. First, we give a simple proof of the fact that every CBER on $[\mathbb{N}]^{\mathbb{N}}$ is hyperfinite on some set of the form…
