We study the computational complexity of two hard problems on determinantal point processes (DPPs). One is maximum a posteriori (MAP) inference, i.e., to find a principal submatrix having the maximum determinant. The other is probabilistic…

The number of n-gram features grows exponentially in n, making it computationally demanding to compute the most frequent n-grams even for n as small as 3. Motivated by our production machine learning system built on n-gram features, we ask:…

Let $A$ be a set in a prime field $\mathbb{F}_p$. In this paper, we prove that $d\times d$ matrices with entries in $A$ determine almost $|A|^{3+\frac{1}{45}}$ distinct determinants and almost $|A|^{2-\frac{1}{6}}$ distinct permanents when…

We study the enumeration of diagonally and antidiagonally symmetric alternating sign matrices (DASASMs) of fixed odd order by introducing a case of the six-vertex model whose configurations are in bijection with such matrices. The model…

In this short note, we prove that for $\mathcal{E} \subset \mathbb{F}_q^d$ with $|\mathcal{E}| \geq q^{d-1} + O(q^2)$ then the set of determinants generated by $\mathcal{E}$ is $\mathbb{F}_q.$ This result is nearly optimal and generalizes…

An error model with asymmetric single magnitude four error is considered. This paper is about constructions of codes correcting single error over $\mathbb{Z}_{2^{a}3^{b}r}$. Firstly, we reduce the construction of a maximal size…

Let $C$ be an arithmetic circuit of $poly(n)$ size given as input that computes a polynomial $f\in\mathbb{F}[X]$, where $X=\{x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_n\}$ and $\mathbb{F}$ is any field where the field arithmetic can be performed efficiently. We…

A new type of complex Hadamard matrices of order 9 are constructed. The studied matrices are symmetric, block circulant with circulant blocks ($BCCB$) and form an until now unknown non-reducible and non-affine two-parameter orbit. Several…

We consider questions related to the computation of the capacity of codes that avoid forbidden difference patterns. The maximal number of $n$-bit sequences whose pairwise differences do not contain some given forbidden difference patterns…

We study the existence and construction of circulant matrices $C$ of order $n\geq2$ with diagonal entries $d\geq0$, off-diagonal entries $\pm1$ and mutually orthogonal rows. These matrices generalize circulant conference ($d=0$) and…

For every positive integer $k$ such that $k>1,$ there are an infinity of odd integers $h$ with $\omega(h) =k$ distinct prime divisors such that there do not exist a Circulant Hadamard matrix $H$ of order $n=4h^2.$ Moreover, our main result…

Let \((a_n)_{n \in \mathbb{N}}\) be a lacunary sequence of integers satisfying the Hadamard gap condition. For any fixed dimension $d \geq 1$, we establish asymptotic upper bounds for the maximal gap in the set of dilates…

For $U\in O(N)$ we have $||U||_1\leq N\sqrt{N}$, with equality if and only if $U=H/\sqrt{N}$, with $H$ Hadamard matrix. Motivated by this remark, we discuss in this paper the algebraic and analytic aspects of the computation of the maximum…

This paper treats two topics: matrices with sign patterns and Jacobians of certain mappings. The main topic is counting the number of plus and minus coefficients in the determinant expansion of sign patterns and of these Jacobians. The…

In 1984, Frankl and Pach proved that, for positive integers $n$ and $d$, the maximum size of a $(d+1)$-uniform set family $\mathcal{F}$ on an $n$-element set with VC-dimension at most $d$ is at most ${n\choose d}$; and they suspected that…

A $Cretan(4t+1)$ matrix, of order $4t+1$, is an orthogonal matrix whose elements have moduli $\leq 1$. The only $Cretan(4t+1)$ matrices previously published are for orders 5, 9, 13, 17 and 37. This paper gives infinitely many new…

We consider a family, $\mathcal{F}$, of subsets of an $n$-set such that the cardinality of the symmetric difference of any two elements $F,F'\in\mathcal{F}$ is not a multiple of 4. We prove that the maximal size of $\mathcal{F}$ is bounded…

We consider the set $\mathcal{M}_n(\mathbb Z; H)$ of $n\times n$-matrices with integer elements of size at most $H$ and obtain a new upper bound on the number of matrices from $\mathcal{M}_n(\mathbb Z; H)$ with a given characteristic…

It is known that real Mutually Unbiased Bases (MUBs) do not exist for any dimension $d > 2$ which is not divisible by 4. Thus, the next combinatorial question is how one can construct Approximate Real MUBs (ARMUBs) in this direction with…

Several new applications and a number of new mathematical techniques have increased the research on error-correcting codes in the Lee metric in the last decade. In this work we consider several coding problems and constructions of…
