We study the accuracy of reconstruction of a family of functions $f_\epsilon(x)$, $x\in\mathbb R^2$, $\epsilon\to0$, from their discrete Radon transform data sampled with step size $O(\epsilon)$. For each $\epsilon>0$ sufficiently small,…

Many interesting functions arising in applications map into Riemannian manifolds. We present an algorithm, using the manifold exponential and logarithm, for approximating such functions. Our approach extends approximation techniques for…

We reexamine the recently introduced basis-set correction theory based on density-functional theory consisting in correcting the basis-set incompleteness error of wave-function methods using a density functional. We use a one-dimensional…

A locally testable code (LTC) is an error-correcting code that has a property-tester. The tester reads $q$ bits that are randomly chosen, and rejects words with probability proportional to their distance from the code. The parameter $q$ is…

The family of functions plays a central role in the design and effectiveness of function-correcting codes. By focusing on a well-defined family of functions, function-correcting codes can be constructed with minimal length while still…

$k$-Coloring Reconfiguration is one of the most well-studied reconfiguration problems, which asks to transform a given proper $k$-coloring of a graph to another by repeatedly recoloring a single vertex. Its approximate version, Maxmin…

In this paper, we derive rates of convergence in the high-dimensional central limit theorem for Polyak--Ruppert averaged iterates generated by entropy-regularized asynchronous Q-learning with linear function approximation and a polynomial…

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…

Finding exact circuit size is a notorious optimization problem in practice. Whereas modern computers and algorithmic techniques allow to find a circuit of size seven in blink of an eye, it may take more than a week to search for a circuit…

We present a new local-search algorithm for the $k$-median clustering problem. We show that local optima for this algorithm give a $(2.836+\epsilon)$-approximation; our result improves upon the $(3+\epsilon)$-approximate local-search…

We revisit the Karagiannidis-Lioumpas (KL) approximation of the Q-function by optimizing its coefficients in terms of absolute error, relative error and total error. For minimizing the maximum absolute/relative error, we describe the…

Given Boolean functions \( f, g : \mathbb{F}_2^n \to \{-1,+1\} \), we say they are {\em linearly isomorphic} if there exists \( A \in \mathrm{GL}_n(\mathbb{F}_2) \) such that \( f(x)=g(Ax) \) for all \( x \). We study this problem in the…

This paper addresses black-box smooth optimization problems, where the objective and constraint functions are not explicitly known but can be queried. The main goal of this work is to generate a sequence of feasible points converging…

We consider upper bounds for the approximation error E|g(X)-g(\hat X)|^p, where X and \hat X are random variables such that \hat X is an approximation of X in the L_p-norm, and the function g belongs to certain function classes, which…

The approximate degree of a Boolean function $f: \{-1, 1\}^n \to \{-1, 1\}$ is the minimum degree of a real polynomial that approximates $f$ to within error $1/3$ in the $\ell_\infty$ norm. In an influential result, Aaronson and Shi (J. ACM…

Given a porous compact $K \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ and a continuity modulus $\omega$, we prove a quantitative Jackson-Bernstein type theorem on harmonic approximation. That is, a function $f$ belongs to the class $\mathrm{Lip}_{\omega}(K)$ if…

The model of relative-error property testing of Boolean functions has been the subject of significant recent research effort [CDH+24][CPPS25a][CPPS25b] In this paper we consider the problem of relative-error testing an unknown and arbitrary…

We revisit the method of Carleman linearization for systems of ordinary differential equations with polynomial right-hand sides. This transformation provides an approximate linearization in a higher-dimensional space through the exact…

Capacitated k-median is one of the few outstanding optimization problems for which the existence of a polynomial time constant factor approximation algorithm remains an open problem. In a series of recent papers algorithms producing…

We introduce iR2N, a modified proximal quasi-Newton method for minimizing the sum of a smooth function $f$ and a lower semi-continuous prox-bounded function $h$, allowing inexact evaluations of $f$, its gradient, and the associated proximal…
