Geometry of interpolation sets in derivative free optimization
We consider derivative free methods based on sampling approaches for nonlinear optimization problems where derivatives of the objective function are not available and cannot be dir...

On the Hardness and Smoothed Complexity of Quasi-Concave Minimization
In this paper, we resolve the smoothed and approximative complexity of low-rank quasi-concave minimization, providing both upper and lower bounds. As an upper bound, we provide th...

Finding effective support-tree preconditioners
In 1995, Gremban, Miller, and Zagha introduced supporttree preconditioners and a parallel algorithm called supporttree conjugate gradient (STCG) for solving linear systems of the ...

Adventures in time and space
Abstract. This paper investigates what is essentially a call-by-value version of PCF under a complexity-theoretically motivated type system. The programming formalism, ATR, has its...

Learning juntas
We consider a fundamental problem in computational learning theory: learning an arbitrary Boolean function which depends on an unknown set of k out of n Boolean variables. We give...
