Let $A(n, d)$ denote the maximum size of a binary code of length $n$ and minimum Hamming distance $d$. Studying $A(n, d)$, including efforts to determine it as well to derive bounds on $A(n, d)$ for large $n$'s, is one of the most…

Many quantum algorithms for numerical linear algebra assume black-box access to a block-encoding of the matrix of interest, which is a strong assumption when the matrix is not sparse. Kernel matrices, which arise from discretizing a kernel…

The concept of \emph{data depth} in non-parametric multivariate descriptive statistics is the generalization of the univariate rank method to multivariate data. \emph{Halfspace depth} is a measure of data depth. Given a set $S$ of points…

In recent work, it has been shown that maintaining reliability in analog vector--matrix multipliers can be modeled as the following coding problem. Vectors in $\mathbb{R}^k$ are encoded into codewords of a linear $[n,k,d]$ code $C$ over…

An incidence structure consists simply of a set P of points and a set B of blocks, with a relation of incidence between points and blocks.A symmetric (v,k,\lambda) block design is the subject of this paper. The symmetric (n^2+n+1, n+1,1)…

The paper addresses parametric inequality systems described by polynomial functions in finite dimensions, where state-dependent infinite parameter sets are given by finitely many polynomial inequalities and equalities. Such systems can be…

Given a simplicial complex with weights on its simplices, and a nontrivial cycle on it, we are interested in finding the cycle with minimal weight which is homologous to the given one. Assuming that the homology is defined with integer…

Given two graphs $H$ and $G$, the Subgraph Isomorphism problem asks if $H$ is isomorphic to a subgraph of $G$. While NP-hard in general, algorithms exist for various parameterized versions of the problem: for example, the problem can be…

Symbolic regression that aims to detect underlying data-driven models has become increasingly important for industrial data analysis. For most existing algorithms such as genetic programming (GP), the convergence speed might be too slow for…

In this article we study a broad class of integer programming problems in variable dimension. We show that these so-termed {\em n-fold integer programming problems} are polynomial time solvable. Our proof involves two heavy ingredients…

By a codimension-one system we mean a system whose lattice of relations has rank one. We consider codimension-one $A$-hypergeometric systems and explicitly construct some of the logarithmic series solutions at the origin. When the parameter…

A $k$-block in a graph $G$ is a maximal set of at least $k$ vertices no two of which can be separated in $G$ by deleting fewer than $k$ vertices. The block number $\beta(G)$ of $G$ is the maximum integer $k$ for which $G$ contains a…

Semidefinite programming is based on optimization of linear functionals over convex sets defined by linear matrix inequalities, namely, inequalities of the form $$L_A(X)=I-A_1X_1-\dots-A_g X_g\succeq0.$$ Here the $X_j$ are real numbers and…

We derive a new upper bound on the diameter of a polyhedron P = {x \in R^n : Ax <= b}, where A \in Z^{m\timesn}. The bound is polynomial in n and the largest absolute value of a sub-determinant of A, denoted by \Delta. More precisely, we…

The Steinitz constant in dimension $d$ is the smallest value $c(d)$ such that for any norm on $\mathbb{R}^{ d}$ and for any finite zero-sum sequence in the unit ball, the sequence can be permuted such that the norm of each partial sum is…

A number of attempts have been made to improve accuracy and/or scalability of the PC (Peter and Clark) algorithm, some well known (Buhlmann, et al., 2010; Kalisch and Buhlmann, 2007; 2008; Zhang, 2012, to give some examples). We add here…

Consider a class of simplices defined by systems $A x \leq b$ of linear inequalities with $\Delta$-modular matrices. A matrix is called $\Delta$-modular, if all its rank-order sub-determinants are bounded by $\Delta$ in an absolute value.…

In the classic Integer Programming (IP) problem, the objective is to decide whether, for a given $m \times n$ matrix $A$ and an $m$-vector $b=(b_1,\dots, b_m)$, there is a non-negative integer $n$-vector $x$ such that $Ax=b$. Solving (IP)…

A class of one-dimensional convolutional codes will be presented. They are all MDS codes, i. e., have the largest distance among all one-dimensional codes of the same length n and overall constraint length delta. Furthermore, their extended…

Block coordinate descent is an optimization paradigm that iteratively updates one block of variables at a time, making it quite amenable to big data applications due to its scalability and performance. Its convergence behavior has been…
