In this paper we contribute to the frequently studied question of how to decompose a continuous piecewise linear (CPWL) function into a difference of two convex CPWL functions. Every CPWL function has infinitely many such decompositions,…

In an extended abstract Ressayre considered real closed exponential fields and integer parts that respect the exponential function. He outlined a proof that every real closed exponential field has an exponential integer part. In the present…

The multiplicities of the decomposition of the product of an arbitrary number $n$ of spin $s$ states into irreducible $SU(2)$ representations are computed. Two complementary methods are presented, one based on random walks in representation…

We propose a method to reconstruct sparse signals degraded by a nonlinear distortion and acquired at a limited sampling rate. Our method formulates the reconstruction problem as a nonconvex minimization of the sum of a data fitting term and…

We study the slices or sections of a convex polytope by affine hyperplanes. We present results on two key problems: First, we provide tight bounds on the maximum number of vertices attainable by a hyperplane slice of $d$-polytope (a sort of…

For a bounded measurable set $A\subseteq \mathbb{R}$ we denote the Lebesgue measure of $\{(x, y)\in A^2\colon x\le y\le x+1\}$ by $\Phi(A)$. We prove that if $I=A_1\cup\dots\cup A_{k+1}$ partitions an interval $I$ of length $L$ into $k+1$…

In this paper we show how we can compute in a deterministic way the decomposition of a multivariate rational function with a recombination strategy. The key point of our recombination strategy is the used of Darboux polynomials. We study…

Let $p/q$ ($p, q \in \mathbb{N}^*$) be a positive rational number such that $p > q^2$. We show that for any $\epsilon > 0$, there exists a set $A(\epsilon) \subset [0, 1[$, with finite border and with Lebesgue measure $< \epsilon$, for…

This paper presents a method to establish functional inequalities via fuzzy decomposition on the state space, which generalizes earlier results dealing with exact partitions of the state space. Given a reversible Markov chain on a finite…

This paper investigates the multiplicity and the number of limit cycles for planar piecewise linear system divided into two regions by a straight line and each linear subsystem has a node. Through constructing Poincare half maps and a…

We solve the graph bi-partitioning problem in dense graphs with arbitrary degree distribution using the replica method. We find the cut-size to scale universally with <k^1/2>. In contrast, earlier results studying the problem in graphs with…

Holmsen, Kyn\v{c}l and Valculescu recently conjectured that if a finite set $X$ with $\ell n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$ that is colored by $m$ different colors can be partitioned into $n$ subsets of $\ell$ points each, such that each subset…

In this paper we study the maximum number $N$ of limit cycles that can exhibit a planar piecewise linear differential system formed by two pieces separated by a straight line. More precisely, we prove that this maximum number satisfies…

We introduce a formalism to analyze partially defined functions between ordered sets. We show that our construction provides a uniform and conceptual approach to all the main definitions encountered in elementary real analysis including…

In this paper, we introduce a new method which we call it MZ-method, for dividing a natural number $x$ by two and then we use graph as a model to show MZ-algorithm. Applying (recursively) $k$-times of the MZ-method for the number $x$,…

We present a method of computing the generating function $f_P(\x)$ of $P$-partitions of a poset $P$. The idea is to introduce two kinds of transformations on posets and compute $f_P(\x)$ by recursively applying these transformations. As an…

Consider a sequence of real-valued functions of a real variable given by a homogeneous linear recursion with differentiable coefficients. We show that if the functions in the sequence are differentiable, then the sequence of derivatives…

We present a novel strategy to strongly reduce the severity of the sign problem, using line integrals along paths of changing imaginary action. Highly oscillating regions along these paths cancel out, decreasing their contributions. As a…

This paper presents some results on a well-known problem in Algebraic Signal Sampling and in other areas of applied mathematics: reconstruction of piecewise-smooth functions from their integral measurements (like moments, Fourier…

We investigate the problem of finding the minimum number of pieces necessary for dividing a three-dimensional sphere or a ball and reassembling it to form $n$ congruent copies of the original object, generalising a known result by Raphael…
