We give sufficient conditions on a matrix A ensuring the existence of a partition of this matrix into two submatrices with extremely small norm of the image of any vector. Under some weak conditions on a matrix A we obtain a partition of A…

We apply the geometric approach provided by $\Sigma$-operators to develop a theory of $p$-summability for multilinear operators. In this way, we introduce the notion of Lipschitz $p$-summing multilinear operators and show that it is…

We consider multiple and set-indexed sums of random vectors taking values in Euclidean space of growing dimension. It is shown that, when viewed as finite metric spaces, the sets of values of such sums converge in probability. The limit is…

A property $\Pi$ on a finite set $U$ is \emph{monotone} if for every $X \subseteq U$ satisfying $\Pi$, every superset $Y \subseteq U$ of $X$ also satisfies $\Pi$. Many combinatorial properties can be seen as monotone properties. The problem…

A subset P of N x N is called Schur bounded if every infinite matrix with bounded entries which is zero off of P yields a bounded Schur multiplier on B(H). Such sets are characterized as being the union of a subset with at most k entries in…

Given vectors $\mathbb{v}_1, \ldots, \mathbb{v}_n \in \mathbb{R}^d$ with Euclidean norm at most $1$ and $\mathbb{x}_0 \in [-1,1]^n$, our goal is to sample a random signing $\mathbb{x} \in \{\pm 1\}^n$ with $\mathbb{E}[\mathbb{x}] =…

We propose a general method for optimization with semi-infinite constraints that involve a linear combination of functions, focusing on the case of the exponential function. Each function is lower and upper bounded on sub-intervals by…

We show that computing even very coarse approximations of critical points is intractable for simple classes of nonconvex functions. More concretely, we prove that if there exists a polynomial-time algorithm that takes as input a polynomial…

Submodular functions are a fundamental object of study in combinatorial optimization, economics, machine learning, etc. and exhibit a rich combinatorial structure. Many subclasses of submodular functions have also been well studied and…

We give some necessary and sufficient conditions for the possibility to represent a Hermitian operator on an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space (real or complex) in the form $\sum_{i=1}^nQ_iP_i$, where $P_1,\dots,P_n$, $Q_1,\dots,Q_n$ are…

A data stream is viewed as a sequence of $M$ updates of the form $(\text{index},i,v)$ to an $n$-dimensional integer frequency vector $f$, where the update changes $f_i$ to $f_i + v$, and $v$ is an integer and assumed to be in $\{-m, ...,…

We define a function of two real vectors by a certain homogeneous quotient involving power sums, and show that its supremum grows asymptotically linearly w.r.t. the dimension. From this, we deduce a condition under which a parametric set of…

We present a new method for obtaining norm bounds for random matrices, where each entry is a low-degree polynomial in an underlying set of independent real-valued random variables. Such matrices arise in a variety of settings in the…

Let us assume that $f$ is a continuous function defined on the unit ball of $\mathbb R^d$, of the form $f(x) = g (A x)$, where $A$ is a $k \times d$ matrix and $g$ is a function of $k$ variables for $k \ll d$. We are given a budget $m \in…
