Optimal matrices for problems involving the matrix numerical radius often have fields of values that are disks, a phenomenon associated with partial smoothness. Such matrices are highly structured: we experiment in particular with the…
Generalizing earlier work characterizing the quantum query complexity of computing a function of an unknown classical ``black box'' function drawn from some set of such black box functions, we investigate a more general quantum query model…
We study a primal-dual interior point method specialized to clustered low-rank semidefinite programs requiring high precision numerics, which arise from certain multivariate polynomial (matrix) programs through sums-of-squares…
We establish several mathematical and computational properties of the nuclear norm for higher-order tensors. We show that like tensor rank, tensor nuclear norm is dependent on the choice of base field --- the value of the nuclear norm of a…
In this work, we introduce an interior-point method that employs tensor decompositions to efficiently represent and manipulate the variables and constraints of semidefinite programs, targeting problems where the solutions may not be…
We apply polynomial techniques (linear programming) to obtain lower and upper bounds on the covering radius of spherical designs as function of their dimension, strength, and cardinality. In terms of inner products we improve the lower…
Atomic norm minimization is a convex optimization framework to recover point sources from a subset of their low-pass observations, or equivalently the underlying frequencies of a spectrally-sparse signal. When the amplitudes of the sources…
Seeking tighter relaxations of combinatorial optimization problems, semidefinite programming is a generalization of linear programming that offers better bounds and is still polynomially solvable. Yet, in practice, a semidefinite program is…
This paper studies a fundamental problem in convex optimization, which is to solve semidefinite programming (SDP) with high accuracy. This paper follows from the existing robust SDP-based interior point method analysis due to [Huang, Jiang,…
Semidefinite programs (SDPs) are a fundamental class of optimization problems with important recent applications in approximation algorithms, quantum complexity, robust learning, algorithmic rounding, and adversarial deep learning. This…
We derive, similar to Lau and Riha, a matrix formulation of a general best approximation theorem of Singer for the special case of spectral approximations of a given matrix from a given subspace. Using our matrix formulation we describe the…
In semidefinite programming the dual may fail to attain its optimal value and there could be a duality gap, i.e., the primal and dual optimal values may differ. In a striking paper, Ramana proposed a polynomial size extended dual that does…
In this paper we generalize the Interior Point-Proximal Method of Multipliers (IP-PMM) presented in [An Interior Point-Proximal Method of Multipliers for Convex Quadratic Programming, Computational Optimization and Applications, 78,…
Tensor completion is a core machine learning algorithm used in recommender systems and other domains with missing data. While the matrix case is well-understood, theoretical results for tensor problems are limited, particularly when the…
Semidefinite programming is an important optimization task, often used in time-sensitive applications. Though they are solvable in polynomial time, in practice they can be too slow to be used in online, i.e. real-time applications. Here we…
Polynomial and rational functions are the number one choice when it comes to modeling of radial distortion of lenses. However, several extrapolation and numerical issues may arise while using these functions that have not been covered by…
A new relaxed variant of interior point method for low-rank semidefinite programming problems is proposed in this paper. The method is a step outside of the usual interior point framework. In anticipation to converging to a low-rank primal…
We study the possibility of designing $N^{o(1)}$-round protocols for problems of substantially super-linear polynomial-time (sequential) complexity in the model of Massively Parallel Computation, where $N$ is the input size. We show that if…
In this paper, the $q$-numerical radius of operators in semi-Hilbertian spaces is studied. New characterizations are established, and sharp upper and lower bounds for the $q$-numerical radius are derived. Moreover, several inequalities…
This paper studies the problem of deterministic rank-one matrix completion. It is known that the simplest semidefinite programming relaxation, involving minimization of the nuclear norm, does not in general return the solution for this…
