The goal of this paper is to understand how exponential-time approximation algorithms can be obtained from existing polynomial-time approximation algorithms, existing parameterized exact algorithms, and existing parameterized approximation…

Given a set of $n$ vectors in $\mathbb{R}^d$, the goal of the \emph{determinant maximization} problem is to pick $k$ vectors with the maximum volume. Determinant maximization is the MAP-inference task for determinantal point processes (DPP)…

We consider two optimization problems in planar graphs. In Maximum Weight Independent Set of Objects we are given a graph $G$ and a family $\mathcal{D}$ of objects, each being a connected subgraph of $G$ with a prescribed weight, and the…

Voronoi diagrams are a fundamental geometric data structure for obtaining proximity relations. We consider collections of axis-aligned orthogonal polyhedra in two and three-dimensional space under the max-norm, which is a particularly…

For a Borel set $A$ and a homogeneous Poisson point process $\eta$ in $\R^d$ of intensity $\lambda >0$, define the Poisson--Voronoi approximation $ A_\eta$ of $A$ as a union of all Voronoi cells with nuclei from $\eta$ lying in $A$. If $A$…

We consider the typical Poisson-Voronoi cell in the Euclidean space R d and in particular the maximal distance D from a vertex of that cell to its nucleus. We provide a sharp asymptotics for the tail distribution of D. As a byproduct, we…

The authors present a new simple algorithm to approximate weakly stochastic differential equations in the spirit of [1] and [2]. They apply it to the problem of pricing Asian options under the Heston stochastic volatility model, and compare…

In the present paper we study a non-modular variant of the Short Integer Solution problem over the integers. Given a random matrix $A \in \mathbb{Z}^{n\times m}$ with entries $a_{ij}$ such that $0\le a_{ij}< Q,$ for some $Q>0,$ the goal is…

The problem of finding short vectors in Euclidean lattices is a central hard problem in complexity theory. The case of module lattices (i.e., lattices which are also modules over a number ring) is of particular interest for cryptography and…

We construct a quasi-polynomial time deterministic approximation algorithm for computing the volume of an independent set polytope with restrictions. Randomized polynomial time approximation algorithms for computing the volume of a convex…

The weighted low-rank approximation problem is a fundamental numerical linear algebra problem and has many applications in machine learning. Given a $n \times n$ weight matrix $W$ and a $n \times n$ matrix $A$, the goal is to find two…

We initiate a systematic study of utilizing predictions to improve over approximation guarantees of classic algorithms, without increasing the running time. We propose a systematic method for a wide class of optimization problems that ask…

Let $S$ be a set of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^2$. Our goal is to preprocess $S$ to efficiently compute the smallest enclosing disk of the points in $S$ that lie inside an axis-aligned query rectangle. Previous data structures for this…

We propose an efficient method for the numerical approximation of a general class of two dimensional semilinear parabolic problems on polygonal meshes. The proposed approach takes advantage of the properties of the serendipity version of…

Voronoi constellations (VCs) are finite sets of vectors of a coding lattice enclosed by the translated Voronoi region of a shaping lattice, which is a sublattice of the coding lattice. In conventional VCs, the shaping lattice is a scaled-up…

In the Upper Degree-Constrained Partial Orientation problem we are given an undirected graph $G=(V,E)$, together with two degree constraint functions $d^-,d^+ : V \to \mathbb{N}$. The goal is to orient as many edges as possible, in such a…

We consider the semi-random graph model of [Makarychev, Makarychev and Vijayaraghavan, STOC'12], where, given a random bipartite graph with $\alpha$ edges and an unknown bipartition $(A, B)$ of the vertex set, an adversary can add arbitrary…

Voronoi tessellations are used to partition the Euclidean space into polyhedral regions, which are called Voronoi cells. Labeling the Voronoi cells with the class information, we can map any classification problem into a Voronoi…

We present a strategy for proving an asymptotic upper bound on the number of defects (non-hexagonal Voronoi cells) in the $n$ generator optimal quantizer on a closed surface (i.e., compact 2-manifold without boundary). The program is based…

We prove that the $L^2$ CVP distance from a random short ring element to the log-unit lattice of $\Q(\zeta_{2^k})$ converges to $\frac{\pi}{2\sqrt{6}}\sqrt{n}$ as $n=2^{k-1}\to\infty$. We then show that this target lies inside the Voronoi…
