We focus on two central themes in this dissertation. The first one is on decomposing polytopes and polynomials in ways that allow us to perform nonlinear optimization. We start off by explaining important results on decomposing a polytope…
In this paper we present methods for the synthesis of polynomial invariants for probabilistic transition systems. Our approach is based on martingale theory. We construct invariants in the form of polynomials over program variables, which…
Multivariate linear mixed models (mvLMMs) have been widely used in many areas of genetics, and have attracted considerable recent interest in genome-wide association studies (GWASs). However, fitting mvLMMs is computationally non-trivial,…
We consider the low rank matrix completion problem over finite fields. This problem has been extensively studied in the domain of real/complex numbers, however, to the best of authors' knowledge, there exists merely one efficient algorithm…
In the maximum constraint satisfaction problem (MAX CSP), one is given a finite collection of (possibly weighted) constraints on overlapping sets of variables, and the goal is to assign values from a given finite domain to the variables so…
The $2 \rightarrow q$ norm of a matrix $X \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times d}$ is defined as $\lVert X \rVert_{2 \rightarrow q} = \sup_{\lVert v \rVert_2 = 1} \lVert Xv \rVert_q$. We give polynomial-time multiplicative approximation algorithms for…
Solving linear systems is of great importance in numerous fields. Proposed quantum algorithms for preparing solutions for linear systems include the HHL algorithm with subsequent refinements and variational methods. Circulant linear systems…
Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (HMC) has emerged as a powerful Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method to sample from complex continuous distributions. However, a fundamental limitation of HMC is that it can not be applied to distributions with…
We develop a new tool, namely polynomial and linear algebraic methods, for studying systems of word equations. We illustrate its usefulness by giving essentially simpler proofs of several hard problems. At the same time we prove extensions…
In this paper, we propose two new methods for solving Set Constraint Problems, as well as a potential polynomial solution for NP-Complete problems using quantum computation. While current methods of solving Set Constraint Problems focus on…
Matrices with low numerical rank are omnipresent in many signal processing and data analysis applications. The pivoted QLP (p-QLP) algorithm constructs a highly accurate approximation to an input low-rank matrix. However, it is…
Quadratically Constrained Quadratic Programs (QCQPs) are an important class of optimization problems with diverse real-world applications. In this work, we propose a variational quantum algorithm for general QCQPs. By encoding the variables…
In many spatial and spatial-temporal models, and more generally in models with complex dependencies, it may be too difficult to carry out full maximum likelihood (ML) analysis. Remedies include the use of pseudo-likelihood (PL) and…
A novel algorithm for computing the action of a matrix exponential over a vector is proposed. The algorithm is based on a multilevel Monte Carlo method, and the vector solution is computed probabilistically generating suitable random paths…
There are a variety of choices to be made in both computer algebra systems (CASs) and satisfiability modulo theory (SMT) solvers which can impact performance without affecting mathematical correctness. Such choices are candidates for…
The ellipsoid algorithm is a fundamental algorithm for computing a solution to the system of $m$ linear inequalities in $n$ variables $(P): A^{\top}x \le u$ when its set of solutions has positive volume. However, when $(P)$ is infeasible,…
We propose new algorithms for computing triangular decompositions of polynomial systems incrementally. With respect to previous works, our improvements are based on a {\em weakened} notion of a polynomial GCD modulo a regular chain, which…
In this paper, we give an algorithm that finds an epsilon-approximate solution to a mixed integer quadratic programming (MIQP) problem. The algorithm runs in polynomial time if the rank of the quadratic function and the number of integer…
In this paper, we study the generalized problem that minimizes or maximizes a multi-order complex quadratic form with constant-modulus constraints on all elements of its optimization variable. Such a mathematical problem is commonly…
We present a numerical algorithm for finding real non-negative solutions to polynomial equations. Our methods are based on the expectation maximization and iterative proportional fitting algorithms, which are used in statistics to find…
