An important conjecture in knot theory relates the large-$N$, double scaling limit of the colored Jones polynomial $J_{K,N}(q)$ of a knot $K$ to the hyperbolic volume of the knot complement, $\text{Vol}(K)$. A less studied question is…

Polynomial multiplication is a fundamental problem in symbolic computation. There are efficient methods for the multiplication of two univariate polynomials. However, there is rarely efficiently nontrivial method for the multiplication of…

For smooth finite fields $F_q$ (i.e., when $q-1$ factors into small primes) the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) leads to the fastest known algebraic algorithms for many basic polynomial operations, such as multiplication, division,…

Kauffman's bracket is an invariant of regular isotopy of knots and links which since its discovery in 1985 it has been used in many different directions: (a) it implies an easy proof of the invariance of (in fact, it is equivalent to) the…

Clustering is one of the most important tools for analysis of large datasets, and perhaps the most popular clustering algorithm is Lloyd's algorithm for $k$-means. This algorithm takes $n$ vectors $V=[v_1,\dots,v_n]\in\mathbb{R}^{d\times…

Finding roots of univariate polynomials is one of the fundamental tasks of numerics, and there is still a wide gap between root finders that are well understood in theory and those that perform well in practice. We investigate the root…

The Unbounded Subset-Sum Problem (USSP) is defined as: given sum $s$ and a set of integers $W\leftarrow \{p_1,\dots,p_n\}$ output a set of non-negative integers $\{y_1,\dots,y_n\}$ such that $p_1y_1+\dots+p_ny_n=s$. The USSP is an…

Topological nodal line semimetals host stable chained, linked, or knotted line degeneracies in momentum space protected by symmetries. In this paper, we use the Jones polynomial as a general topological invariant to capture the global knot…

Network applications, such as multimedia streaming and video conferencing, impose growing requirements over Quality of Service (QoS), including bandwidth, delay, jitter, etc. Meanwhile, networks are expected to be load-balanced,…

We consider the classic scheduling problem of minimizing the total weighted flow-time on a single machine (min-WPFT), when preemption is allowed. In this problem, we are given a set of $n$ jobs, each job having a release time $r_j$, a…

Many problems are NP-hard and, unless P = NP, do not admit polynomial-time exact algorithms. The fastest known exact algorithms exactly usually take time exponential in the input size. Much research effort has gone into obtaining faster…

In 2008, Ben-Amram, Jones and Kristiansen showed that for a simple programming language - representing non-deterministic imperative programs with bounded loops, and arithmetics limited to addition and multiplication - it is possible to…

Jones and Boston conjectured that the factorization process for iterates of irreducible quadratic polynomials over finite fields is approximated by a Markov model. In this paper, we find unexpected and intricate behavior for some quadratic…

Time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) is rapidly emerging as a premier method for solving dynamical many-body problems in physics and chemistry. The mathematical foundations of TDDFT are established through the formal existence…

Convolutional neural networks owe much of their success to hard-coding translation equivariance. Quantum convolutional neural networks (QCNNs) have been proposed as near-term quantum analogues, but the relevant notion of translation depends…

We give an explicit algorithm for calculating the Kauffman bracket of a link diagram from a Goeritz matrix for that link. Further, we show how the Jones polynomial can be recovered from a Goeritz matrix when the corresponding checkerboard…

We establish the average-case hardness of the algorithmic problem of exact computation of the partition function associated with the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model of spin glasses with Gaussian couplings and random external field. In…

Partitioning a connected graph into $k$~vertex-disjoint connected subgraphs of similar (or given) orders is a classical problem that has been intensively investigated since late seventies. Given a connected graph $G=(V,E)$ and a weight…

We consider a family of quantum spin systems which includes as special cases the ferromagnetic XY model and ferromagnetic Ising model on any graph, with or without a transverse magnetic field. We prove that the partition function of any…

We examine the number T of queries that a quantum network requires to compute several Boolean functions on {0,1}^N in the black-box model. We show that, in the black-box model, the exponential quantum speed-up obtained for partial functions…
