ABSTRACT A feature in many multicriteria problems is a preference for ‘balance’, understood as achieving a desired distribution (e.g., equality or target proportions) of resources across stakeholders or conceptual categories. This paper presents a normative exploration of the implications of balance preferences when baselines are uncertain or contested.

Randomized Algorithms for Streaming Low‐Rank Approximation in Tree Tensor Network Format
ABSTRACT In this work, we present the tree tensor network Nyström (TTNN), an algorithm that extends recent research on streamable tensor approximation, such as for Tucker and tensor‐train formats, to the more general tree tensor network format, enabling a unified treatment of various existing methods.

The passion of butterflies: Notes on “translating” a Navajo poem by Rex Lee Jim
Abstract This essay honors three kinds of tradition. The first tradition is the poetry of Rex Lee Jim. The second tradition is the translation work of Blackhorse Mitchell. The third tradition is the discourse‐centered and ethnopoetic tradition of linguistic anthropology. I do this by focusing on a brief poem in Navajo by Rex Lee Jim.

When is the graph of a random 0/1 polytope a clique?
Abstract We study graph‐theoretic properties of random 0/1$0/1$ polytopes. Specifically, let Qpn⊆{0,1}n$Q_p^n \subseteq \lbrace 0,1\rbrace ^n$ be a random subset where each point is included independently with probability p$p$, and consider the graph Gp$G_p$ of the polytope conv(Qpn)$\operatorname{conv}(Q_p^n)$.
