Spatial statistics often involves Cholesky decomposition of covariance matrices. To ensure scalability to high dimensions, several recent approximations have assumed a sparse Cholesky factor of the precision matrix. We propose a…

We present two novel, explicit representations of Cholesky factor of a nonsingular correlation matrix. The first representation uses semi-partial correlation coefficients as its entries. The second, uses an equivalent form of the square…

Spectral graph sparsification aims to find ultra-sparse subgraphs whose Laplacian matrix can well approximate the original Laplacian eigenvalues and eigenvectors. In recent years, spectral sparsification techniques have been extensively…

This paper introduces a new class of algorithms for solving large-scale linear inverse problems based on new flexible and inexact Golub-Kahan factorizations. The proposed methods iteratively compute regularized solutions by approximating a…

Stochastic dynamics on sparse graphs and disordered systems often lead to complex behaviors characterized by heterogeneity in time and spatial scales, slow relaxation, localization, and aging phenomena. The mathematical tools and…

The randomly pivoted partial Cholesky algorithm (RPCholesky) computes a factorized rank-k approximation of an N x N positive-semidefinite (psd) matrix. RPCholesky requires only (k + 1) N entry evaluations and O(k^2 N) additional arithmetic…

We describe a new algorithm for Gaussian Elimination suitable for general (unsymmetric and possibly singular) sparse matrices, of any entry type, which has a natural parallel and distributed-memory formulation but degrades gracefully to…

In this work, we develop a fast hierarchical solver for solving large, sparse least squares problems. We build upon the algorithm, spaQR (sparsified QR), that was developed by the authors to solve large sparse linear systems. Our algorithm…

This article generalizes a recently introduced procedure to solve nonlinear systems of equations, radically departing from the conventional Newton-Raphson scheme. The original nonlinear system is first unfolded into three simpler…

The multigrid-reduction-in-time (MGRIT) technique has proven to be successful in achieving higher run-time speedup by exploiting parallelism in time. The goal of this article is to develop and analyze a MGRIT algorithm, using FCF-relaxation…

We propose and analyze a Vanka-type multigrid solver for solving a sequence of complex-shifted Laplacian systems arising in diagonalization-based parallel-in-time algorithms for evolutionary equations. Under suitable assumption, local…

The problem of learning a directed acyclic graph (DAG) up to Markov equivalence is equivalent to the problem of finding a permutation of the variables that induces the sparsest graph. Without additional assumptions, this task is known to be…

We propose a fast greedy algorithm to compute sparse representations of signals from continuous dictionaries that are factorizable, i.e., with atoms that can be separated as a product of sub-atoms. Existing algorithms strongly reduce the…

Large kernel systems are prone to be ill-conditioned. Pivoted Cholesky decomposition (PCD) render a stable and efficient solution to the systems without a perturbation of regularization. This paper proposes a new PCD algorithm by tuning…

Preconditioning for overdetermined least-squares problems has received comparatively little attention, and designing methods that are both effective and memory-efficient remains challenging. We propose a class of ILU-based preconditioners…

Matching and partitioning problems are fundamentals of computer vision applications with examples in multilabel segmentation, stereo estimation and optical-flow computation. These tasks can be posed as non-convex energy minimization…

Cholesky factorization provides photonic lattices that are the isospectral partners or the square root of other arrays of coupled waveguides. The procedure is similar to that used in supersymmetric quantum mechanics. However, Cholesky…

We present the first parallel algorithm for solving systems of linear equations in symmetric, diagonally dominant (SDD) matrices that runs in polylogarithmic time and nearly-linear work. The heart of our algorithm is a construction of a…

Exact recovery of a sparse solution for an underdetermined system of linear equations implies full search among all possible subsets of the dictionary, which is computationally intractable, while l1 minimization will do the job when a…

The practical scalability of many optimization algorithms for large extensive-form games is often limited by the games' huge payoff matrices. To ameliorate the issue, Zhang and Sandholm (2020) recently proposed a sparsification technique…
