Binary Decision Diagrams (BDDs) are widely used for the representation of Boolean functions. Context-Free-Language Ordered Decision Diagrams (CFLOBDDs) are a plug-compatible replacement for BDDs -- roughly, they are BDDs augmented with a…

We analyze a new random algorithm for numerical integration of $d$-variate functions over $[0,1]^d$ from a weighted Sobolev space with dominating mixed smoothness $\alpha\ge 0$ and product weights $1\ge\gamma_1\ge\gamma_2\ge\cdots>0$, where…

We consider the problem of estimating how well a model class is capable of fitting a distribution of labeled data. We show that it is often possible to accurately estimate this "learnability" even when given an amount of data that is too…

We show that deep neural networks (DNNs) can efficiently learn any composition of functions with bounded $F_{1}$-norm, which allows DNNs to break the curse of dimensionality in ways that shallow networks cannot. More specifically, we derive…

We define a measure for the complexity of Boolean functions related to their implementation in neural networks, and in particular close related to the generalization ability that could be obtained through the learning process. The measure…

In the moldable job scheduling problem one has to assign a set of $n$ jobs to $m$ machines, in order to minimize the time it takes to process all jobs. Each job is moldable, so it can be assigned not only to one but any number of the equal…

We give a new framework for proving the existence of low-degree, polynomial approximators for Boolean functions with respect to broad classes of non-product distributions. Our proofs use techniques related to the classical moment problem…

Federated learning (FL) can dramatically speed up reinforcement learning by distributing exploration and training across multiple agents. It can guarantee an optimal convergence rate that scales linearly in the number of agents, i.e., a…

We define tests of boolean functions which distinguish between linear (or quadratic) polynomials, and functions which are very far, in an appropriate sense, from these polynomials. The tests have optimal or nearly optimal trade-offs between…

In this contribution we consider sequences of monic polynomials orthogonal with respect to a Sobolev-type inner product \[ \langle f,g \rangle _{S}:= \langle {\bf u}, f g\rangle +N (\mathscr D_q f)(\alpha) (\mathscr D _{q}g)(\alpha),\qquad…

In this paper we model discontinuous extended real functions in pointfree topology following a lattice-theoretic approach, in such a way that, if $L$ is a subfit frame, arbitrary extended real functions on $L$ are the elements of the…

In deep learning, a central issue is to understand how neural networks efficiently learn high-dimensional features. To this end, we explore the gradient descent learning of a general Gaussian Multi-index model…

The most important open problem in Monotone Operator Theory concerns the maximal monotonicity of the sum of two maximally monotone operators provided that Rockafellar's constraint qualification holds. In this paper, we prove the maximal…

A L\'evy process on $R^d$ with distribution $\mu$ at time 1 is denoted by $X^{(\mu)}=\{X_t^{(\mu)}\}$. If the improper stochastic integral $\int_0^{\infty-} f(s)dX_s^{(\mu)}$ of $f$ with respect to $X^{(\mu)}$ is definable, its distribution…

This paper revisits the problem of learning a k-CNF Boolean function from examples in the context of online learning under the logarithmic loss. In doing so, we give a Bayesian interpretation to one of Valiant's celebrated PAC learning…

Let $t_{i}=\frac{i}{n}$ for $i=0,...,n$ be equally spaces knots in the unit interval $[0,1].$ Let $\mathcal{S}_{n}$ be the space of piecewise linear continuous functions on $[0,1]$ with knots $\pi_{n}=\{t_{i}:0\leq i\leq n\}.$ Then we have…

Let $(0, a_1, \ldots, a_{d-1})_n$ denote the function $f_n(x_0, x_1, \ldots, x_{n-1})$ of degree $d$ in $n$ variables generated by the monomial $x_0x_{a_1} \cdots x_{a_{d-1}}$ and having the property that $f_n$ is invariant under cyclic…

We show that a Boolean degree $d$ function on the slice $\binom{[n]}{k} = \{ (x_1,\ldots,x_n) \in \{0,1\} : \sum_{i=1}^n x_i = k \}$ is a junta, assuming that $k,n-k$ are large enough. This generalizes a classical result of Nisan and…

Lasserre [La] proved that for every compact set $K\subset\mathbb R^n$ and every even number $d$ there exists a unique homogeneous polynomial $g_0$ of degree $d$ with $K\subset G_1(g_0)=\{x\in\mathbb R^n:g_0(x)\leq 1\}$ minimizing $|G_1(g)|$…

Let $G$ be a group. For any $\mathbb{Z} G$--module $M$ and any integer $d>0$, we define a function $FV_{M}^{d+1}\colon \mathbb{N} \to \mathbb{N} \cup \{\infty\}$ generalizing the notion of $(d+1)$--dimensional filling function of a group.…
