The provably asymptotically fastest algorithm within a factor of 5 for formally described problems will be constructed. The main idea is to enumerate all programs provably equivalent to the original problem by enumerating all proofs. The…

In 1973, L.A. Levin published an algorithm that solves any inversion problem $\pi$ as quickly as the fastest algorithm $p^*$ computing a solution for $\pi$ in time bounded by $2^{l(p^*)}.t^*$, where $l(p^*)$ is the length of the binary…

Linear programming is a powerful method in combinatorial optimization with many applications in theory and practice. For solving a linear program quickly it is desirable to have a formulation of small size for the given problem. A useful…

The halting problem is undecidable --- but can it be solved for "most" inputs? This natural question was considered in a number of papers, in different settings. We revisit their results and show that most of them can be easily proven in a…

We present a simple transformation of any linear program or semidefinite program into an equivalent convex optimization problem whose only constraints are linear equations. The objective function is defined on the whole space, making…

In numerical linear algebra, considerable effort has been devoted to obtaining faster algorithms for linear systems whose underlying matrices exhibit structural properties. A prominent success story is the method of generalized nested…

We analyze the bit complexity of efficient algorithms for fundamental optimization problems, such as linear regression, $p$-norm regression, and linear programming (LP). State-of-the-art algorithms are iterative, and in terms of the number…

One of the most basic computational problems is the task of finding a desired item in an ordered list of N items. While the best classical algorithm for this problem uses log_2 N queries to the list, a quantum computer can solve the problem…

Algorithmic efficiency is essential to reducing energy and time usage for computational problems. Optimizing efficiency is important for tasks involving multiple resources, for example in stochastic calculations where the size of the random…

We obtain two new algorithms for partial fraction decompositions; the first is over algebraically closed fields, and the second is over general fields. These algorithms takes $O(M^2)$ time, where $M$ is the degree of the denominator of the…

We consider iterative gradient-based optimization algorithms applied to functions that are smooth and strongly convex. The fastest globally convergent algorithm for this class of functions is the Triple Momentum (TM) method. We show that if…

Assuming that P is not equal to NP, the worst-case run time of any algorithm solving an NP-complete problem must be super-polynomial. But what is the fastest run time we can get? Before one can even hope to approach this question, a more…

We give a quantum algorithm for solving semidefinite programs (SDPs). It has worst-case running time $n^{\frac{1}{2}} m^{\frac{1}{2}} s^2 \text{poly}(\log(n), \log(m), R, r, 1/\delta)$, with $n$ and $s$ the dimension and row-sparsity of the…

Given real numbers whose sum is an integer, we study the problem of finding integers which match these real numbers as closely as possible, in the sense of L^p norm, while preserving the sum. We describe the structure of solutions for this…

The fastest quantum algorithms (for the solution of classical computational tasks) known so far are basically variations of the hidden subgroup problem with {$f(U[x])=f(x)$}. Following a discussion regarding which tasks might be solved…

Grover's algorithm can solve NP-complete problems on quantum computers faster than all the known algorithms on classical computers. However, Grover's algorithm still needs exponential time. Due to the BBBV theorem, Grover's algorithm is…

The FIND algorithm is a fast algorithm designed to calculate certain entries of the inverse of a sparse matrix. Such calculation is critical in many applications, e.g., quantum transport in nano-devices. We extended the algorithm to other…

Since many real-world problems arising in the fields of compiler optimisation, automated software engineering, formal proof systems, and so forth are equivalent to the Halting Problem--the most notorious undecidable problem--there is a…

In this paper we propose a fast optimization algorithm for approximately minimizing convex quadratic functions over the intersection of affine and separable constraints (i.e., the Cartesian product of possibly nonconvex real sets). This…

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,…
