Coded distributed matrix multiplication (CDMM) schemes, such as MatDot codes, seek efficient ways to distribute matrix multiplication task(s) to a set of $N$ distributed servers so that the answers returned from any $R$ servers are…

Let $(X,\mu)$ be a probability space equipped with an invertible, measure-preserving transformation $T\colon X \to X$. We exhibit a wide class of weights $w$ so that whenever $f,g \in L^{\infty}(X)$, the bilinear ergodic averages \[…

This paper examines online distributed Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM). The goal is to distributively optimize a global objective function over a network of decision makers under linear constraints. The global objective…

The zeta and Moebius transforms over the subset lattice of $n$ elements and the so-called subset convolution are examples of unary and binary operations on set functions. While their direct computation requires $O(3^n)$ arithmetic…

In a number of problems in computational physics, a finite sum of kernel functions centered at $N$ particle locations located in a box in three dimensions must be extended by imposing periodic boundary conditions on box boundaries. Even…

Multiple-try Metropolis (MTM) is a popular Markov chain Monte Carlo method with the appealing feature of being amenable to parallel computing. At each iteration, it samples several candidates for the next state of the Markov chain and…

We provide a comprehensive characterisation of the theoretical properties of the divide-and-conquer sequential Monte Carlo (DaC-SMC) algorithm. We firmly establish it as a well-founded method by showing that it possesses the same basic…

The aim of this note is to provide a Master Theorem for some discrete divide and conquer recurrences: $$X_{n}=a_n+\sum_{j=1}^m b_j X_{\lfloor{\frac{n}{m_j}}\rfloor},$$ where the $m_i$'s are integers with $m_i\ge 2$. The main novelty of this…

Alternating direction methods of multipliers (ADMMs) are popular approaches to handle large scale semidefinite programs that gained attention during the past decade. In this paper, we focus on solving doubly nonnegative programs (DNN),…

Unbounded SubsetSum is a classical textbook problem: given integers $w_1,w_2,\cdots,w_n\in [1,u],~c,u$, we need to find if there exists $m_1,m_2,\cdots,m_n\in \mathbb{N}$ satisfying $c=\sum_{i=1}^n w_im_i$. In its all-target version, $t\in…

In this paper, we first introduce some new kinds of weighted amalgam spaces. Then we deal with the vector-valued intrinsic square functions, which are given by \begin{equation*} \mathcal S_\gamma(\vec{f})(x) = \Bigg(\sum_{j=1}^\infty…

This paper considers distributed M-estimation under heterogeneous distributions among distributed data blocks. A weighted distributed estimator is proposed to improve the efficiency of the standard "Split-And-Conquer" (SaC) estimator for…

In computer science, divide and conquer (D&C) is an algorithm design paradigm based on multi-branched recursion. A D&C algorithm works by recursively and monotonically breaking down a problem into sub problems of the same (or a related)…

Ingham studied two types of convolution sums of the divisor function, namely the shifted convolution sum $\sum_{n \le N} d(n) d(n+h)$ and the additive convolution sum $\sum_{n < N} d(n) d(N-n)$ for integers $N, h$ and derived their…

Let $F({\bf x})={\bf x}^tQ_m{\bf x}+\mathbf{b}^t{\bf x}+c\in\mathbb{Z}[{\bf x}]$ be a quadratic polynomial in $\ell (\ge 3 )$ variables ${\bf x} =(x_{1},...,x_{\ell})$, where $F({\bf x})$ is positive when ${\bf x}\in\mathbb{R}_{\ge…

In this work we construct subdivision schemes refining general subsets of R^n and study their applications to the approximation of set-valued functions. Differently from previous works on set-valued approximation, our methods are developed…

In the context of big data analysis, the divide-and-conquer methodology refers to a multiple-step process: first splitting a data set into several smaller ones; then analyzing each set separately; finally combining results from each…

Mixed-Modal Image Retrieval (MMIR) as a flexible search paradigm has attracted wide attention. However, previous approaches always achieve limited performance, due to two critical factors are seriously overlooked. 1) The contribution of…

Let $G=(G_j)_{j\ge 0}$ be a strictly increasing linear recurrent sequence of integers with $G_0=1$ having characteristic polynomial $X^{d}-a_1X^{d-1}-\cdots-a_{d-1}X-a_d$. It is well known that each positive integer $\nu$ can be uniquely…

We consider the learning of algorithmic tasks by mere observation of input-output pairs. Rather than studying this as a black-box discrete regression problem with no assumption whatsoever on the input-output mapping, we concentrate on tasks…
