With reference to a baseline parametrization, we explore highly efficient fractional factorial designs for inference on the main effects and, perhaps, some interactions. Our tools include approximate theory together with certain carefully…

For a rational matrix function $\Phi$ with poles outside the unit circle, we estimate the degree of the unique superoptimal approximation $\A\Phi$ by matrix functions analytic in the unit disk. We obtain sharp estimates in the case of…

We study the problem of finding a superoptimal solution to the four block problem. Given a bounded block matrix function $\left(\begin{array}{cc}\Phi_{11} &\Phi_{12}\\\Phi_{21}&\Phi_{22}\end{array}\right)$ on the unit circle the four block…

A number of recent results on optimization problems involving submodular functions have made use of the multilinear relaxation of the problem. These results hold typically in the value oracle model, where the objective function is…

We define a new class of set functions that in addition to being monotone and subadditive, also admit a very limited form of submodularity defined over a permutation of the ground set. We refer to this permutation as a submodular order.…

When an Approximation Theorist looks at well-posed PDE problems or operator equations, and standard solution algorithms like Finite Elements, Rayleigh-Ritz or Trefftz techniques, methods of fundamental or particular solutions and their…

Submodular functions and their optimization have found applications in diverse settings ranging from machine learning and data mining to game theory and economics. In this work, we consider the constrained maximization of a submodular…

In a previous paper [Adcock & Huybrechs, 2019] we described the numerical approximation of functions using redundant sets and frames. Redundancy in the function representation offers enormous flexibility compared to using a basis, but…

We present new results on Boolean matrix factorization and a new algorithm based on these results. The results emphasize the significance of factorizations that provide from-below approximations of the input matrix. While the previously…

In this paper, we will show a new characterization of operator monotone functions by a matrix reverse Cauchy inequality.

Operator learning refers to the application of ideas from machine learning to approximate (typically nonlinear) operators mapping between Banach spaces of functions. Such operators often arise from physical models expressed in terms of…

In this paper, necessary and sufficient conditions are established for the factorization of a closed, in general, unbounded operator $T=AB$ into a product of two nonnegative selfadjoint operators $A$ and $B.$ Already the special case, where…

We study the maximum Hamming distance (or rather, the complementary notion of "minimum approximability") of a general function on a finite group $G$ to either of the sets $\operatorname{End}(G)$ and $\operatorname{Aff}(G)$, of group…

Given an operator ideal I, a Banach space E has the I-approximation property if operators on E can be uniformly approximated on compact subsets of E by operators belonging to I. In this paper the I- approximation property is studied in…

We develop a general theory of operator realizations, or ``linear representations" of analytic functions in several non-commuting variables about a matrix-centre. In particular we show that a non-commutative function has a matrix-centre…

The development of randomized algorithms for numerical linear algebra, e.g. for computing approximate QR and SVD factorizations, has recently become an intense area of research. This paper studies one of the most frequently discussed…

Maximizing a single submodular set function subject to a cardinality constraint is a well-studied and central topic in combinatorial optimization. However, finding a set that maximizes multiple functions at the same time is much less…

Some extremalities for quadrature operators are proved for convex functions of higher order. Such results are known in the numerical analysis, however they are often proved under suitable differentiability assumptions. In our considerations…

The nonnegative matrix factorization is a widely used, flexible matrix decomposition, finding applications in biology, image and signal processing and information retrieval, among other areas. Here we present a related matrix factorization.…

This article summarises the theory of several bounded functional calculi for unbounded operators that have recently been discovered. The extend the Hille--Phillips calculus for (negative) generators $A$ of certain bounded $C_0$-semigroups,…
