In this work, we propose a (linearized) Alternating Direction Method-of-Multipliers (ADMM) algorithm for minimizing a convex function subject to a nonconvex constraint. We focus on the special case where such constraint arises from the specification that a ...
We are interested in decompositions xnf1f2 of the majority function over n odd arguments x1, ...,xnsuch that f1and f2do not depend on xn. In this paper, we derive the conditions for f1and f2that satisfy the decomposition. Such decompositions play a centr ...
We present a coding paradigm that provides a new achievable rate for the primitive relay channel by combining compress-and-forward and decode-and-forward with a chaining construction. In the primitive relay channel model, the source broadcasts a message to ...
Kato introduced the exotic nilpotent cone to be a substitute for the ordinary nilpotent cone of type C with cleaner properties. Here we describe the irreducible components of exotic Springer fibres (the fibres of the resolution of the exotic nilpotent cone ...
Latest quantum technologies promise realization of extremely large circuits, whereas, reversible logic synthesis, the key automation step for quantum computing suffers from scalability bottleneck. Sealability can be achieved with Decision Diagram (DD)-base ...
The kernel of the Cooray-Rubinstein formula in the time domain involves a modified Bessel function of order zero. In this letter, approximations of the kernel are proposed, which do not use any special function, and, hence, are able to simplify the numeric ...

Macrophages are a heterogeneous group of cells that are capable of carrying out distinct functions in different tissues, as well as in different locations within a given tissue. Some of these tissue macrophages lie on, or close to, the outer (abluminal) su ...
Symmetric submodular functions are an important family of submodular functions capturing many interesting cases, including cut functions of graphs and hypergraphs. Maximization of such functions subject to various constraints receives little attention by c ...
Sparsity-based models have proven to be very effective in most image processing applications. The notion of sparsity has recently been extended to structured sparsity models where not only the number of components but also their support is important. This ...
In 1977 L.T. Ramsey showed that any sequence in Z 2 with bounded gaps contains arbitrarily many collinear points. Thereafter, in 1980, C. Pomerance provided a density version of this result, relaxing the condition on the sequence from having bounded gaps t ...
