The joint optimization of the integer matrix $\mathbf{A}$ and the power scaling matrix $\mathbf{D}$ is central to achieving the capacity-approaching performance of Integer-Forcing (IF) precoding. This problem, however, is known to be…
We study the structure of the set of all possible affine hyperplane sections of a convex polytope. We present two different cell decompositions of this set, induced by hyperplane arrangements. Using our decomposition, we bound the number of…
We consider the disjoint bilinear programming problem in which one of the disjoint subsets has the structure of an acute-angled polytope. An optimality criterion for such a problem is formulated and proved, and based on this, a polynomial…
Several algorithms are available in the literature for finding the entire set of Pareto-optimal solutions in MultiObjective Linear Programming (MOLP). However, it has not been proposed so far an interior point algorithm that finds all…
Morse complexes and Morse-Smale complexes are topological descriptors popular in topology-based visualization. Comparing these complexes plays an important role in their applications in feature correspondences, feature tracking, symmetry…
We study the problems of covering or partitioning a polygon $P$ (possibly with holes) using a minimum number of small pieces, where a small piece is a connected sub-polygon contained in an axis-aligned unit square. For covering, we seek to…
We provide formulas and algorithms for computing the excess numbers of certain ideals. The solution for monomial ideals is given by the mixed volumes of certain polytopes. These results enable us to design specific homotopies for numerical…
Let $G$ be a bipartite graph where every node has a strict ranking of its neighbors. For every node, its preferences over neighbors extend naturally to preferences over matchings. Matching $N$ is more popular than matching $M$ if the number…
An optimal 3-point quadrature formula of closed type is derived. Various error inequalities are established. Applications in numerical integration are also given.
We present a comprehensive analysis of an algorithm for evaluating high-dimensional polynomials that are invariant under permutations and rotations. The key bottleneck is the contraction of a high-dimensional symmetric and sparse tensor…
This paper describes the adaptation of a well-scaling parallel algorithm for computing Morse-Smale segmentations based on path compression to a distributed computational setting. Additionally, we extend the algorithm to efficiently compute…
In this paper, we give an algorithm that finds an epsilon-approximate solution to a mixed integer quadratic programming (MIQP) problem. The algorithm runs in polynomial time if the rank of the quadratic function and the number of integer…
Approximating a definite integral of product of cosines to within an accuracy of n binary digits where the integrand depends on input integers x[k] given in binary radix, is equivalent to counting the number of equal-sum partitions of the…
We develop an algorithmic theory of convex optimization over discrete sets. Using a combination of algebraic and geometric tools we are able to provide polynomial time algorithms for solving broad classes of convex combinatorial…
To compute solutions of sparse polynomial systems efficiently we have to exploit the structure of their Newton polytopes. While the application of polyhedral methods naturally excludes solutions with zero components, an irreducible…
For an arbitrary tree we investigate the problems of constructing a maximum matching which minimizes or maximizes the cardinality of a maximum matching of the graph obtained from original one by its removal and present corresponding…
In this paper we propose an approach for computing multiple high-quality near-isometric dense correspondences between a pair of 3D shapes. Our method is fully automatic and does not rely on user-provided landmarks or descriptors. This…
We show that the problem of counting perfect matchings remains #P-complete even if we restrict the input to very dense graphs, proving the conjecture in [5]. Here "dense graphs" refer to bipartite graphs of bipartite independence number…
This paper studies the copositive optimization problem whose objective is a sparse polynomial, with linear constraints over the nonnegative orthant. We propose sparse Moment-SOS relaxations to solve it. Necessary and sufficient conditions…
The optimal binning is the optimal discretization of a variable into bins given a discrete or continuous numeric target. We present a rigorous and extensible mathematical programming formulation for solving the optimal binning problem for a…
