We propose a recursive algorithm for estimating time-varying signals from a few linear measurements. The signals are assumed sparse, with unknown support, and are described by a dynamical model. In each iteration, the algorithm solves an ℓ1-ℓ1 minimization ...
Symmetric submodular functions are an important family of submodular functions capturing many interesting cases including cut functions of graphs and hypergraphs. In this work, we identify submodular maximization problems for which one can get a better app ...
We study the maximum budgeted allocation problem, i.e., the problem of selling a set of m indivisible goods to n players, each with a separate budget, such that we maximize the collected revenue. Since the natural assignment LP is known to have an integral ...
We consider the problem of finding a K-sparse approximation of a signal, such that the support of the approximation is the union of sets from a given collection, a.k.a. group structure. This problem subsumes the one of finding K-sparse tree approximations. ...
We design a sublinear Fourier sampling algorithm for a case of sparse off-grid frequency recovery. These are signals with the form ; i.e., exponential polynomials with a noise term. The frequencies satisfy and for some . We design a sublinear time randomiz ...
The traditional synthesis question given a specification asks for the automatic construction of a system that satisfies the specification, whereas often there exists a preference order among the different systems that satisfy the given specification. Under ...
We show a close connection between structural hardness for k-partite graphs and tight inapproximability results for scheduling problems with precedence constraints. Assuming a natural but nontrivial generalisation of the bipartite structural hardness resul ...
This paper discusses the upwinded local discontinuous Galerkin methods for the one-term/multi-term fractional ordinary differential equations (FODEs). The natural upwind choice of the numerical fluxes for the initial value problem for FODEs ensures stabili ...
In 2013 the Discrete Logarithm Problem in finite fields of small characteristic enjoyed a rapid series of developments, starting with the heuristic polynomial-time relation generation method due to Gologlu, Granger, McGuire and Zumbragel, and culminating w ...
In this article, we disprove a conjecture of Goemans and Linial; namely, that every negative type metric embeds into ℓ1 with constant distortion. We show that for an arbitrarily small constant δ > 0, for all large enough n, there is an n-point negative ...
