Scattering in Flatland: Efficient Representations via Wave Atoms
This paper presents a numerical compression strategy for the boundary integral equation of acoustic scattering in two dimensions. These equations have oscillatory kernels that we ...

A Note on the Finite Variance of the Averaging Function for Polynomial System Solving
In [BP08], the average complexity of linear homotopy methods to solve polynomial equations with random initial input (in a sense to be described below) was proven to be finite, an...

On the Ranks and Border Ranks of Symmetric Tensors
Motivated by questions arising in signal processing, computational complexity, and other areas, we study the ranks and border ranks of symmetric tensors using geometric methods. We...

Iterative Thresholding Meets Free-Discontinuity Problems
Free-discontinuity problems describe situations where the solution of interest is defined by a function and a lower dimensional set consisting of the discontinuities of the funct...

Self-Concordant Barriers for Convex Approximations of Structured Convex Sets
We show how to approximate the feasible region of structured convex optimization problems by a family of convex sets with explicitly given and efficient (if the accuracy of the ap...

Algebraic Structures of B-series
B-series are a fundamental tool in practical and theoretical aspects of numerical integrators for ordinary differential equations. A composition law for B-series permits an elega...

Combinatorial Sublinear-Time Fourier Algorithms
We study the problem of estimating the best k term Fourier representation for a given frequency-sparse signal (i.e., vector) A of length N k. More explicitly, we investigate how t...
