For any integers $d, n \geq 2$ and $1/({\min\{n,d\}})^{0.4999} < \varepsilon<1$, we show the existence of a set of $n$ vectors $X\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ such that any embedding $f:X\rightarrow \mathbb{R}^m$ satisfying $$ \forall x,y\in X,\…

We relate the problem of best low-rank approximation in the spectral norm for a matrix $A$ to Kolmogorov $n$-widths and corresponding optimal spaces. We characterize all the optimal spaces for the image of the Euclidean unit ball under $A$…

In this paper, we revisit the old problem of compact finite difference approximations of the homogeneous Dirichlet problem in dimension 1. We design a large and natural set of schemes of arbitrary high order, and we equip this set with an…

We study approximability of subdense instances of various covering problems on graphs, defined as instances in which the minimum or average degree is Omega(n/psi(n)) for some function psi(n)=omega(1) of the instance size. We design new…

In 2018, the longest vector problem (LVP) and the closest vector problem (CVP) in $p$-adic lattices were introduced. These problems are closely linked to the orthogonalization process. In this paper, we first prove that every $p$-adic…
