We consider the problem of best subset selection (BSS) under high-dimensional sparse linear regression model. Recently, Guo et al. (2020) showed that the model selection performance of BSS depends on a certain identifiability margin, a…

Proving lower bounds remains the most difficult of tasks in computational complexity theory. In this paper, we show that whereas most natural NP-complete problems belong to NLIN (linear time on nondeterministic RAMs), some of them,…

Given complex numbers $w_1, \ldots, w_n$, we define the weight $w(X)$ of a set $X$ of 0-1 vectors as the sum of $w_1^{x_1} \cdots w_n^{x_n}$ over all vectors $(x_1, \ldots, x_n)$ in $X$. We present an algorithm, which for a set $X$ defined…

We prove that uniform circuits of size n can be evaluated in space O(n/log n). Thus, Space(O(n)) is not in uniform Size(o(n*log n)). For uniformity, we only require that the circuit is O(n/log n)-Space uniform. We also generalize the…

Numerical heating in particle-in-cell (PIC) codes currently precludes the accurate simulation of cold, relativistic plasma over long periods, severely limiting their applications in astrophysical environments. We present a spatially…

We introduce the task of out-of-order membership to a formal language L, where the letters of a word w are revealed one by one in an adversarial order. The length |w| is known in advance, but the content of w is streamed as pairs (i, w[i]),…
