A probability distribution over {-1, 1}^n is (eps, k)-wise uniform if, roughly, it is eps-close to the uniform distribution when restricted to any k coordinates. We consider the problem of how far an (eps, k)-wise uniform distribution can…

Selecting appropriate regularization coefficients is critical to performance with respect to regularized empirical risk minimization problems. Existing theoretical approaches attempt to determine the coefficients in order for regularized…

We introduce a new measure of robustness for statistical estimators, which we call \emph{empirical sensitivity}. An estimator $\hat \theta$ has bounded empirical sensitivity if, with high probability over a dataset $X = (X_1, \dots, X_n)…

We improve the upper bound of the following inequalities for the gamma function $\Gamma$ due to H. Alzer and the author. \begin{equation*}…

We compute the constant of approximation for an arbitrary rational point on an arbitrary smooth cubic hypersurface $X$ over a number field $k$, provided that there is a $k$-rational line somewhere on $X$. In the process, we verify the Coba…

We consider a class of double exponential sums studied in a paper of Sinai and Ulcigrai. They proved a linear bound for these sums along the sequence of denominators in the continued fraction expansion of $\alpha$, provided $\alpha$ is…

We investigate the approximation for computing the sum $a_1+...+a_n$ with an input of a list of nonnegative elements $a_1,..., a_n$. If all elements are in the range $[0,1]$, there is a randomized algorithm that can compute an…

Unitary estimation is the task to estimate an unknown unitary operator $U\in\mathrm{SU}(d)$ with $n$ queries to the corresponding unitary operation, and its accuracy is evaluated by an estimation fidelity. We show that the optimal…

Let $R(n)$ denote the number of rich words of length $n$ over a given finite alphabet. In 2017 it was proved that $\lim_{n\rightarrow\infty} \sqrt[n]{R(n)}=1$; it means the number of rich words has a subexponential growth. However, up to…

We quantify the density of rational points in the unit sphere $S^n$, proving analogues of the classical theorems on the embedding of $\q^n$ into $\r^n$. Specifically, we prove a Dirichlet theorem stating that every point $\alpha \in S^n$ is…

In coding and information theory, it is desirable to construct maximal codes that can be either variable length codes or error control codes of fixed length. However deciding code maximality boils down to deciding whether a given NFA is…

Let ${X_1,...,X_n}$ be i.i.d. random observations. Let $\mathbb{S}=\mathbb{L}+\mathbb{T}$ be a $U$-statistic of order $k\ge2$ where $\mathbb{L}$ is a linear statistic having asymptotic normal distribution, and $\mathbb{T}$ is a…

We show that for any rational p \in [1,\infty) except p = 1, 2, unless P = NP, there is no polynomial-time algorithm for approximating the matrix p-norm to arbitrary relative precision. We also show that for any rational p\in [1,\infty)…

We consider in this paper the optimal approximations of convex univariate functions with feed-forward Relu neural networks. We are interested in the following question: what is the minimal approximation error given the number of…

In this paper, we settle the problem of learning optimal linear contracts from data in the offline setting, where agent types are drawn from an unknown distribution and the principal's goal is to design a contract that maximizes her…

For a given irrational number, we consider the properties of best rational approximations of given parities. There are three different kinds of rational numbers according to the parity of the numerator and denominator, say odd/odd, even/odd…

We consider whether L = limsup_{n to infty} n ||T^{n+1}-T^n|| < infty implies that the operator T is power bounded. We show that this is so if L<1/e, but it does not necessarily hold if L=1/e. As part of our methods, we improve a result of…

Linear programs with quadratic regularization are attracting renewed interest due to their applications in optimal transport: unlike entropic regularization, the squared-norm penalty gives rise to sparse approximations of optimal transport…

For any fixed positive integer $k$, let $\alpha_{k}$ denote the smallest $\alpha \in (0,1)$ such that the random graph sequence $\left\{G\left(n, n^{-\alpha}\right)\right\}$ does not satisfy the zero-one law for the set $\mathcal{E}_{k}$ of…

A recent asymptotic expansion for the positive zeros $x=j_{\nu,m}$ ($m=1,2,3,\ldots$) of the Bessel function of the first kind $J_{\nu}(x)$ is studied, where the order $\nu$ is positive. Unlike previous well-known expansions in the…
