In the monotone integer dualization problem, we are given two sets of vectors in an integer box such that no vector in the first set is dominated by a vector in the second. The question is to check if the two sets of vectors cover the…
We study arithmetic proof systems P_c(F) and P_f(F) operating with arithmetic circuits and arithmetic formulas, respectively, that prove polynomial identities over a field F. We establish a series of structural theorems about these proof…
In recent years, a very exciting and promising method for proving lower bounds for arithmetic circuits has been proposed. This method combines the method of {\it depth reduction} developed in the works of Agrawal-Vinay [AV08], Koiran…
We consider the Rosenfeld-Groebner algorithm for computing a regular decomposition of a radical differential ideal generated by a set of ordinary differential polynomials in n indeterminates. For a set of ordinary differential polynomials…
We establish new hardness results for decision tree optimization problems, adding to a line of work that dates back to Hyafil and Rivest in 1976. We prove, under randomized ETH, superpolynomial lower bounds for two basic problems: given an…
We continue a line of work on extracting random bits from weak sources that are generated by simple processes. We focus on the model of locally samplable sources, where each bit in the source depends on a small number of (hidden) uniformly…
Let X = (x_0,...,x_{n-1})$ be a sequence of n numbers. For \epsilon > 0, we say that x_i is an \epsilon-approximate median if the number of elements strictly less than x_i, and the number of elements strictly greater than x_i are each less…
A central question in mathematics and computer science is the question of determining whether a given ideal $I$ is prime, which geometrically corresponds to the zero set of $I$, denoted $Z(I)$, being irreducible. The case of principal…
We consider the problem of approximating the reachable set of a discrete-time polynomial system from a semialgebraic set of initial conditions under general semialgebraic set constraints. Assuming inclusion in a given simple set like a box…
Obtaining a non-trivial (super-linear) lower bound for computation of the Fourier transform in the linear circuit model has been a long standing open problem. All lower bounds so far have made strong restrictions on the computational model.…
An algorithm to generate a minimal comprehensive Gr\"obner\, basis of a parametric polynomial system from an arbitrary faithful comprehensive Gr\"obner\, system is presented. A basis of a parametric polynomial ideal is a comprehensive…
In this paper, we generalize the notion of border bases of zero-dimensional polynomial ideals to the module setting. To this end, we introduce order modules as a generalization of order ideals and module border bases of submodules with…
We prove lower bounds of order $n\log n$ for both the problem to multiply polynomials of degree $n$, and to divide polynomials with remainder, in the model of bounded coefficient arithmetic circuits over the complex numbers. These lower…
The best known size lower bounds against unrestricted circuits have remained around $3n$ for several decades. Moreover, the only known technique for proving lower bounds in this model, gate elimination, is inherently limited to proving…
We develop the tools to bound extreme roots of multivariate real zero polynomials globally. This is done through the use of a relaxation that approximates their rigidly convex sets. This relaxation can easily be constructed using the degree…
Agrawal and Vinay [AV08] showed how any polynomial size arithmetic circuit can be thought of as a depth four arithmetic circuit of subexponential size. The resulting circuit size in this simulation was more carefully analyzed by Korian…
Let $R=k[x,y,z]$ be a standard graded $3$-variable polynomial ring, where $k$ denotes any field. We study grade $3$ homogeneous ideals $I \subseteq R$ defining compressed rings with socle $k(-s)^{\ell} \oplus k(-2s+1)$, where $s \geq3$ and…
$f,g_1,...,g_m$ be elements of the polynomial ring $\mathbb{R}[x_1,...,x_n]$. The paper deals with the general problem of computing a lower bound for $f$ on the subset of $\mathbb{R}^n$ defined by the inequalities $g_i\ge 0$, $i=1,...,m$.…
This paper is a continuation of a previous work by the author and G. Puninski where iterated intersections of powers of ideals were studied in rings of iterated differential polynomials. We present a method which can be used to show that…
Given polynomials $g$ and $f_1,\dots,f_p$, all in $\Bbbk[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ for some field $\Bbbk$, we consider the problem of computing the critical points of the restriction of $g$ to the variety defined by $f_1=\cdots=f_p=0$. These are…
