Tensors, especially higher-order tensors, are typically represented in low-rank formats to preserve the main information of the high-dimensional data while saving memory space. In practice, only a small fraction elements in high-dimensional…

This article introduces a new optimization method to improve mergesort's runtime complexity, when sorting sequences that have equal keys to $O(n log_2 k)$, where $k$ is the number of distinct keys in the sequence. When $k$ is constant, it…

This article describes lossless compression algorithms for multisets of sequences, taking advantage of the multiset's unordered structure. Multisets are a generalisation of sets where members are allowed to occur multiple times. A multiset…

Any coded subshift X defined by a set C of code words contains a subshift, which we call L, consisting of limits of single code words. We show that when C satisfies a unique decomposition property, the topological entropy h(X) of X is…

This paper can be seen as an attempt of rethinking the {\em Extra-Gradient Philosophy} for solving Variational Inequality Problems. We show that the properly defined {\em Reduced Gradients} can be used instead for finding approximate…

We study sorting in the evolving data model, introduced by [AKMU11], where the true total order changes while the sorting algorithm is processing the input. More precisely, each comparison operation of the algorithm is followed by a…

We define analogues of Boolean operations on not necessarily complete partial orders, they often have as results sets of elements rather than single elements. It proves useful to add to such sets X if they are intended to be sup(X) or…

In this article we define a new reducibility based on the enumeration orders of r.e. sets.

Given an array A[1: n] of n elements drawn from an ordered set, the sorted range selection problem is to build a data structure that can be used to answer the following type of queries efficiently: Given a pair of indices i, j $ (1\le i\le…

We say that a finite almost simple $G$ with socle $S$ is admissible (with respect to the spectrum) if $G$ and $S$ have the same sets of orders of elements. Let $L$ be a finite simple linear or unitary group of dimension at least three over…

The classical comparison-based sorting problem asks us to find the underlying total order of a given set of elements, where we can only access the elements via comparisons. In this paper, we study a restricted version, where, as a hint, a…

Much of the copious literature on the subject of sorting has concentrated on minimizing the number of comparisons and/or exchanges/copies. However, a more appropriate yardstick for the performance of sorting algorithms is based on the total…

We give an algorithm with singly exponential complexity for computing the barcodes up to dimension $\ell$ (for any fixed $\ell \geq 0$) of the filtration of a given semi-algebraic set by the sub-level sets of a given polynomial. Our…

This paper studies the hierarchy of local minimums of a polynomial in the space. For this purpose, we first compute H-minimums, for which the first and second order optimality conditions are satisfied. To compute each H-minimum, we…

The element distinctness problem takes as input a list $I$ of $n$ values from a totally ordered universe and the goal is to decide whether $I$ contains any duplicates. It is a well-studied problem with a classical worst-case $\Omega(n \log…

We use soft heaps to obtain simpler optimal algorithms for selecting the $k$-th smallest item, and the set of~$k$ smallest items, from a heap-ordered tree, from a collection of sorted lists, and from $X+Y$, where $X$ and $Y$ are two…

In this work, we present the \texttt{LLM ORDER BY} semantic operator as a logical abstraction and conduct a systematic study of its physical implementations. First, we propose several improvements to existing semantic sorting algorithms and…

In 1972, Fredman proposes the problem of sorting under partial information: preprocess a directed acyclic graph $G$ with vertex set $X$ so that you can sort $X$ in $O(\log e(G))$ time, where $e(G)$ is the number of sorted orders compatible…

We consider the longest common subsequence (LCS) problem with the restriction that the common subsequence is required to consist of at least $k$ length substrings. First, we show an $O(mn)$ time algorithm for the problem which gives a…

We study the following rearrangement problem: Given $n$ words, rearrange and concatenate them so that the obtained string is lexicographically smallest (or largest, respectively). We show that this problem reduces to sorting the given words…
