The minimum aberration criterion has been frequently used in the selection of fractional factorial designs with nominal factors. For designs with quantitative factors, however, level permutation of factors could alter their geometrical…
A famous conjecture of Littlewood (c. 1930) concerns approximating two real numbers by rationals of the same denominator, multiplying the errors. In a lesser-known paper, Wang and Yu (1981) established an asymptotic formula for the number…
In considering the reliability of numerical programs, it is normal to "limit our study to the semantics dealing with numerical precision" (Martel, 2005). On the other hand, there is a great deal of work on the reliability of programs that…
We revisit a formula for the number of plane partitions due to Almkvist. Using the circle method, we provide modifications to his formula along with estimates of the errors. We show that the improved formula continues to be an asymptotic…
The manifold hypothesis says that natural high-dimensional data lie on or around a low-dimensional manifold. The recent success of statistical and learning-based methods in very high dimensions empirically supports this hypothesis,…
The celebrated Morris counter uses $\log_2\log_2 n + O(\log_2 \sigma^{-1})$ bits to count up to $n$ with a relative error $\sigma$, where if $\hat{\lambda}$ is the estimate of the current count $\lambda$, then…
A method for efficiently constructing polar codes is presented and analyzed. Although polar codes are explicitly defined, straightforward construction is intractable since the resulting polar bit-channels have an output alphabet that grows…
The paper proposes an approximate expression for calculating very complex one-dimensional integrals depending on the parameter $a$. These integrals often occur in computational problems theory of magnetic solitons. The resulting analytical…
In this paper we develop a technique to extend any bound for the minimum distance of cyclic codes constructed from its defining sets (ds-bounds) to abelian (or multivariate) codes through the notion of $\mathbb{B}$-apparent distance. We use…
We give metric theorems for the property of Borel normality for real numbers under the assumption of digit dependencies in their expansion in a given integer base. We quantify precisely how much digit dependence can be allowed such that,…
In the Shortest-Superstring problem, we are given a set of strings S and want to find a string that contains all strings in S as substrings and has minimum length. This is a classical problem in approximation and the best known…
Given a polynomial system f associated with a simple multiple zero x of multiplicity {\mu}, we give a computable lower bound on the minimal distance between the simple multiple zero x and other zeros of f. If x is only given with limited…
Shapiro's notations for natural numbers, and the associated desideratum of acceptability - the property of a notation that all recursive functions are computable in it - is well-known in philosophy of computing. Computable structure theory,…
In this paper, we establish some nontrivial and effective upper bounds for the least common multiple of consecutive terms of a finite arithmetic progression. Precisely, we prove that for any two coprime positive integers $a$ and $b$, with…
We describe an approximate rational arithmetic with round-off errors (both absolute and relative) controlled by the user. The rounding procedure is based on the continued fraction expansion of real numbers. Results of computer experiments…
The complexity $f(n)$ of an integer was introduced in 1953 by Mahler & Popken: it is defined as the smallest number of $1$'s needed in conjunction with arbitrarily many +, * and parentheses to write an integer $n$ (for example, $f(6) \leq…
We study the problem of constructing sequences $(x_n)_{n=1}^{\infty}$ on $[0,1]$ in such a way that $$ D_N^* = \sup_{0 \leq x \leq 1} \left| \frac{ \left\{1 \leq i \leq N: x_i \leq x \right\}}{N} - x \right|$$ is uniformly small. A result…
We give improved lower bounds for binary $3$-query locally correctable codes (3-LCCs) $C \colon \{0,1\}^k \rightarrow \{0,1\}^n$. Specifically, we prove: (1) If $C$ is a linear design 3-LCC, then $n \geq 2^{(1 - o(1))\sqrt{k} }$. A design…
Certain simplicial complexes are used to construct a subset $D$ of $\mathbb{F}_{2^n}^m$ and $D$, in turn, defines the linear code $C_{D}$ over $\mathbb{F}_{2^n}$ that consists of $(v\cdot d)_{d\in D}$ for $v\in \mathbb{F}_{2^n}^m$. Here we…
Given a sufficient statistic for a parametric family of distributions, one can estimate the parameter without access to the data. However, the memory or code size for storing the sufficient statistic may nonetheless still be prohibitive.…
