We study the problem of determining the optimal low dimensional projection for maximising the separability of a binary partition of an unlabelled dataset, as measured by spectral graph theory. This is achieved by finding projections which…

We briefly introduce several problems: (1) a generalization of the convex fair partition conjecture, (2) on non-trivial invariants among polyhedrons that can be formed from the same set of face polygons, (3) two questions on assembling…

The properties of the first (largest) eigenvalue and its eigenvector (first eigenvector) are investigated for large sparse random symmetric matrices that are characterized by bimodal degree distributions. In principle, one should be able to…

We consider a refinement of the partition function of graph homomorphisms and present a quasi-polynomial algorithm to compute it in a certain domain. As a corollary, we obtain quasi-polynomial algorithms for computing partition functions…

The elaboration of new quantization methods has recently developed the interest in the study of subalgebras of the Lie algebra of polynomial vector fields over a Euclidean space. In this framework, these subalgebras define maximal…

In this paper, we consider the problem of partitioning a small data sample drawn from a mixture of $k$ product distributions. We are interested in the case that individual features are of low average quality $\gamma$, and we want to use as…

Although many machine learning algorithms involve learning subspaces with particular characteristics, optimizing a parameter matrix that is constrained to represent a subspace can be challenging. One solution is to use Riemannian…

Consider an arrangement of $k$ lines intersecting the unit square. There is some minimum scaling factor so that any placement of a rectangle with aspect ratio $1 \times p$ with $p\geq 1$ must non-transversely intersect some portion of the…

Motivated by applications in robotics and computer vision, we study problems related to spatial reasoning of a 3D environment using sublevel sets of polynomials. These include: tightly containing a cloud of points (e.g., representing an…

We study the optimization version of the equal cardinality set partition problem (where the absolute difference between the equal sized partitions' sums are minimized). While this problem is NP-hard and requires exponential complexity to…

In this paper, we discuss approximating the eigenvalue problem of biharmonic equation. We first present an equivalent mixed formulation which admits amiable nested discretization. Then, we construct multi-level finite element schemes by…

We prove some eigenvalue inequalities for positive semidefinite matrices partitioned into four blocks. The inradius of the numerical range of the off-diagonal block contributes to these estimates. Some related norm inequalities are given…

We propose an algorithm for reduction of the problem of maximization of fraction of two functionals to the equivalent procedure including maximization of difference between the functionals and the solution of an equation of scalar unknown.…

The purpose of this note is to survey a methodology to solve systems of polynomial equations and inequalities. The techniques we discuss use the algebra of multivariate polynomials with coefficients over a field to create large-scale linear…

We give inequalities relating the eigenvalues of the adjacency matrix and the Laplacian of a graph, and its minimum and maximum degrees. The results are applied to derive new conditions for quasi-randomness of graphs.

This paper proposes a new approach to construct high quality space-filling sample designs. First, we propose a novel technique to quantify the space-filling property and optimally trade-off uniformity and randomness in sample designs in…

In this work, we prove an existence result for an optimal partition problem of the form $$\min \{F_s(A_1,\dots,A_m)\colon A_i \in \mathcal{A}_s, \, A_i\cap A_j =\emptyset \mbox{ for } i\neq j\},$$ where $F_s$ is a cost functional with…

The optimal one-sided parametric polynomial approximants of a circular arc are considered. More precisely, the approximant must be entirely in or out of the underlying circle of an arc. The natural restriction to an arc's approximants…

We give a qualitative description of extremals for Morrey's inequality. Our theory is based on exploiting the invariances of this inequality, studying the equation satisfied by extremals and the observation that extremals are optimal for a…

We consider the problem of optimally insulating a given domain $\Omega$ of ${\mathbb{R}}^d$; this amounts to solve a nonlinear variational problem, where the optimal thickness of the insulator is obtained as the boundary trace of the…
