For many popular graph metric sparsifiers, such as spanners, emulators, and preservers, simple and elegant greedy algorithms are known that achieve state-of-the-art or existentially optimal tradeoffs between size and quality. The goal of…
Heffter arrays were introduced by Archdeacon in 2015 as an interesting link between combinatorial designs and topological graph theory. Since the initial paper on this topic, there has been a good deal of interest in Heffter arrays as well…
We consider a network topology design problem in which an initial undirected graph underlying the network is given and the objective is to select a set of edges to add to the graph to optimize the coherence of the resulting network. We show…
In a classical problem in scheduling, one has $n$ unit size jobs with a precedence order and the goal is to find a schedule of those jobs on $m$ identical machines as to minimize the makespan. It is one of the remaining four open problems…
This article provides a new theory for the analysis of forward and backward particle approximations of Feynman-Kac models. Such formulae are found in a wide variety of applications and their numerical (particle) approximation are required…
We extend the relative theory of admissible pairs and $p$-adic Hodge structures introduced in Part II to allow variation in the underlying local systems of $\mathbb{Q}_p$-vector spaces and isocrystals. This extension accommodates, in…
Patience Sorting is a combinatorial algorithm that can be viewed as an iterated, non-recursive form of the Schensted Insertion Algorithm. In recent work the authors have shown that Patience Sorting provides an algorithmic description for…
Many problems in combinatorial linear algebra require upper bounds on the number of solutions to an underdetermined system of linear equations $Ax = b$, where the coordinates of the vector $x$ are restricted to take values in some small…
Value iteration is a popular algorithm for finding near optimal policies for POMDPs. It is inefficient due to the need to account for the entire belief space, which necessitates the solution of large numbers of linear programs. In this…
We introduce a notion of a sheaf of vector spaces on a graph, and develop the foundations of homology theories for such sheaves. One sheaf invariant, its "maximum excess," has a number of remarkable properties. It has a simple definition,…
We introduce a class of paired binary matrices called admixed arrays, which arise in analyses of large-scale genetic data and can be viewed as weighted edge colorings of complete bipartite graphs. This combinatorial structure gives rise to…
Several theorems about the equivalence of familiar theories of reverse mathematics with certain well-ordering principles have been proved by recursion-theoretic and combinatorial methods (Friedman, Marcone, Montalban et al.) and with…
For substructural logics with contraction or weakening admitting cut-free sequent calculi, proof search was analyzed using well-quasi-orders on $\mathbb{N}^d$ (Dickson's lemma), yielding Ackermannian upper bounds via controlled bad-sequence…
Approximate solutions to various NP-hard combinatorial optimization problems have been found by learned heuristics using complex learning models. In particular, vertex (node) classification in graphs has been a helpful method towards…
We introduce a novel framework of ranking with abstention, where the learner can abstain from making prediction at some limited cost $c$. We present a extensive theoretical analysis of this framework including a series of $H$-consistency…
Pairing heaps are shown to have constant amortized time Insert and Meld, thus showing that pairing heaps have the same amortized runtimes as Fibonacci heaps for all operations but Decrease-key.
Variational Inference is a powerful tool in the Bayesian modeling toolkit, however, its effectiveness is determined by the expressivity of the utilized variational distributions in terms of their ability to match the true posterior…
Finite discrete Huffman sequences, together with their extension to n-dimensional arrays, are highly valued because their discrete aperiodic auto-correlations optimally approximate the continuum form of the delta function. We present here…
We study the efficiency of sequential first-price item auctions at (subgame perfect) equilibrium. This auction format has recently attracted much attention, with previous work establishing positive results for unit-demand valuations and…
Biological and physical systems often exhibit distinct structures at different spatial/temporal scales. Persistent homology is an algebraic tool that provides a mathematical framework for analyzing the multi-scale structures frequently…
