Approximating Submodular Functions Everywhere [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Twentieth Annual ACM-SIAM Symposium on Discrete Algorithms, 2009
URL to paper from conference site ; Submodular functions are a key concept in combinatorial optimization. Algorithms that involve submodular functions usually assume that they are given by a (value) oracle. Many interesting problems involving submodular functions can be solved using only polynomially many queries to the oracle, e.g., exact minimization

Discretised sum‐product theorems by Shannon‐type inequalities

open access: yesJournal of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 112, Issue 6, December 2025.
Abstract By making use of arithmetic information inequalities, we give a strong quantitative bound for the discretised ring theorem. In particular, we show that if A⊂[1,2]$A \subset [1,2]$ is a (δ,σ)$(\delta,\sigma)$‐set, with |A|=δ−σ$|A| = \delta ^{-\sigma }$, then A+A$A+A$ or AA$AA$ has δ$\delta$‐covering number at least δ−c|A|$\delta ^{-c}|A|$ for ...

Does Twin Transition Facilitate Exporting? The Case of Logistics Innovation

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, Volume 34, Issue 7, Page 8194-8212, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Firms need to overcome two hurdles to enter foreign markets: deciding whether to export and the intensity of their export sales. Although logistics plays a crucial role in exporting, the link between logistics innovation and exporting remains unexplored.

Target Return Strategy

open access: yesFinancial Review, Volume 60, Issue 4, Page 1483-1503, November 2025.
ABSTRACT We study the target return strategy (TRS), which exits the market once the return reaches a preset target. We show that the holding‐period return (HPR) cannot mean‐variance dominate TRS, but TRS can mean‐variance dominate HPR. We theoretically analyze TRS and quantitatively illustrate that training targets by a mean‐variance utility ...

Multimodal Hierarchical Dirichlet Process-Based Active Perception by a Robot

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurorobotics, 2018
In this paper, we propose an active perception method for recognizing object categories based on the multimodal hierarchical Dirichlet process (MHDP). The MHDP enables a robot to form object categories using multimodal information, e.g., visual, auditory,

An Algorithmic Theory of Dependent Regularizers, Part 1: Submodular Structure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We present an exploration of the rich theoretical connections between several classes of regularized models, network flows, and recent results in submodular function theory.

A note on Laplacian bounds, deformation properties, and isoperimetric sets in metric measure spaces

open access: yesJournal of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 112, Issue 5, November 2025.
Abstract In the setting of length PI spaces satisfying a suitable deformation property, it is known that each isoperimetric set has an open representative. In this paper, we construct an example of a length PI space (without the deformation property) where an isoperimetric set does not have any representative whose topological interior is nonempty ...

Dynamic Stepsize Techniques in DR-Submodular Maximization

open access: yesMathematics
The Diminishing-Return (DR)-submodular function maximization problem has garnered significant attention across various domains in recent years. Classic methods often employ continuous greedy or Frank–Wolfe approaches to tackle this problem; however, high

Marginal Reputation

open access: yesEconometrica, Volume 93, Issue 6, Page 2007-2042, November 2025.
We study reputation formation where a long‐run player repeatedly observes private signals and takes actions. Short‐run players observe the long‐run player's past actions but not her past signals. The long‐run player can thus develop a reputation for playing a distribution over actions, but not necessarily for playing a particular mapping from signals ...

You Can Recharge With Detouring: Optimizing Placement for Roadside Wireless Charger

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2018
Wireless energy transfer technologies have played an important role in the development of Internet of Things. Most of the previous studies focus on scheduling mobile chargers efficiently for rechargeable sensor nodes.
