Given an $n\times n\times p$ cost array $C$ we consider the problem $p$-P3AP which consists in finding $p$ pairwise disjoint permutations $\varphi_1,\varphi_2,\ldots,\varphi_p$ of $\{1,\ldots,n\}$ such that…

The algebra of holomorphic polynomial Sp_{2n}-invariants of k complex 2n by 2n matrices (under diagonal conjugation action) is generated by the traces of words in these matrices and their symplectic adjoints. No concrete minimal generating…

Let $p(n)$ denote the partition function and define $p(n,k)=\sum_{j=0}^{k}\binom{n-j}{k-j}p(j)$ where $p(0)=1$. We prove that $p(n,k)$ is unimodal and satisfies $p(n,k) < \frac{2.825}{\sqrt{n}}\, 2^n $ for fixed $n\ge 1$ and all $1\le k\le…

Learning meaningful representations of complex objects that can be seen through multiple ($k\geq 3$) views or modalities is a core task in machine learning. Existing methods use losses originally intended for paired views, and extend them…

We consider the classical $k$-means clustering problem in the setting bi-criteria approximation, in which an algoithm is allowed to output $\beta k > k$ clusters, and must produce a clustering with cost at most $\alpha$ times the to the…

For a set P of n points in R^2, the Euclidean 2-center problem computes a pair of congruent disks of the minimal radius that cover P. We extend this to the (2,k)-center problem where we compute the minimal radius pair of congruent disks to…

Fixed-point solvers are ubiquitous in nonlinear PDEs, yet their progress collapses whenever the Jacobian at the solution carries an eigenvalue arbitrarily close to one. We ask whether such stagnation can be removed without storing long…

For a particular experimental design, there is interest in finding which polynomial models can be identified in the usual regression set up. The algebraic methods based on Groebner bases provide a systematic way of doing this. The algebraic…

Let $p$ be a prime greater than $3$ and let $a$ be a rational p-adic integer. In this paper we try to determine $\sum_{k=1}^{[p/3]}\binom{3k}ka^k\pmod p$, and real the connection between cubic congruences and the sum…

The performance of principal component analysis (PCA) suffers badly in the presence of outliers. This paper proposes two novel approaches for robust PCA based on semidefinite programming. The first method, maximum mean absolute deviation…

Partial spread is important in finite geometry and can be used to construct linear codes. From the results in (Designs, Codes and Cryptography 90:1-15, 2022) by Xia Li, Qin Yue and Deng Tang, we know that if the number of the elements in a…

Let p be a prime and let a be a positive integer. In this paper we determine $\sum_{k=0}^{p^a-1}\binom{2k}{k+d}/m^k$ and $\sum_{k=1}^{p-1}\binom{2k}{k+d}/(km^{k-1})$ modulo $p$ for all d=0,...,p^a, where m is any integer not divisible by p.…

In this paper, it is shown that a necessary condition for unique identifiability of $K$ chirps from $N$ regularly spaced samples of their mixture is $N\geq 2K$ when $K\geq 2$. A necessary and sufficient condition is that a rank-constrained…

We present $O(m^3)$ algorithms for specifying the support of minimum-weight words of extended binary BCH codes of length $n=2^m$ and designed distance $d(m,s,i):=2^{m-1-s}-2^{m-1-i-s}$ for some values of $m,i,s$, where $m$ may grow to…

In this book chapter we survey known approaches and algorithms to compute discrepancy measures of point sets. After providing an introduction which puts the calculation of discrepancy measures in a more general context, we focus on the…

Minimum divergence problems under integral constraints appear throughout statistics and probability, including sequential inference, bandit theory, and distributionally robust optimization. In many such settings, dual representations are…

The p-center problem consists in selecting p centers among M to cover N clients, such that the maximal distance between a client and its closest selected center is minimized. For this problem we propose two new and compact integer…

For a digraph $D$ and some $X \subseteq V(D)$, the inversion of $X$ is the operation of flipping all arcs both of whose endvertices are in $X$. We initiate the study of establishing arc-connectivity properties by applying inversions of…

For $n=0,1,2,\ldots$ let $W_n=\sum_{k=0}^{[n/3]}\binom{2k}k \binom{3k}k\binom n{3k}(-3)^{n-3k}$, where $[x]$ is the greatest integer not exceeding $x$. Then $\{W_n\}$ is an Ap\'ery-like sequence. In this paper we deduce many congruences…

Correlation measure of order $k$ is an important measure of randomness in binary sequences. This measure tries to look for dependence between several shifted version of a sequence. We study the relation between the correlation measure of…
