Driven by the need to solve increasingly complex optimization problems in signal processing and machine learning, there has been increasing interest in understanding the behavior of gradient-descent algorithms in non-convex environments. Most available wor ...
Weighted flow time is a fundamental and very well-studied objective function in scheduling. In this paper, we study the setting of a single machine with preemptions. The input consists of a set of jobs, characterized by their processing times, release time ...
We study discretizations of polynomial processes using finite state Markov processes satisfying suitable moment matching conditions. The states of these Markov processes together with their transition probabilities can be interpreted as Markov cubature rul ...
We establish new recurrence and multiple recurrence results for a rather large family of non-polynomial functions which contains tempered functions and (non-polynomial) functions from a Hardy field with polynomial growth. In particular, we show that, somew ...
We obtain new results pertaining to convergence and recurrence of multiple ergodic averages along functions from a Hardy field. Among other things, we confirm some of the conjectures posed by Frantzikinakis in [Fra10; Fra16] and obtain combinatorial applic ...
An integer program (IP) is a problem of the form min{f(x):Ax=b,l≤x≤u,x∈Zn}, where A∈Zm×n, b∈Zm, l,u∈Zn, and f:Zn→Z is a separable convex objective function.
The problem o ...
The evaluation of small degree polynomials is critical for the computation of elementary functions. It has been extensively studied and is well documented. In this article, we evaluate existing methods for polynomial evaluation on superscalar architecture. ...
The Ring Learning with Errors (RLWE) problem has become one of the most widely used cryptographic assumptions for the construction of modern cryptographic primitives. Most of these solutions make use of power-of-two cyclotomic rings mainly due to its simpl ...
We consider the problem of solving integer programs of the form min {c^⊺ x : Ax = b, x ∈ ℤ_{⩾ 0}}, where A is a multistage stochastic matrix in the following sense: the primal treedepth of A is bounded by a parameter d, which means that the columns of A ca ...

Determination of the local void fraction in BWRs from in-core neutron noise measurements requires the knowledge of the axial velocity of the void. The purpose of this paper is to revisit the problem of determining the axial void velocity profile from the t ...
