A lifting and recombination algorithm for rational factorization of sparse polynomials
We propose a new lifting and recombination scheme for rational bivariate
polynomial factorization that takes advantage of the Newton polytope geometry.
We obtain a deterministic algorithm that can be seen as a sparse version of an
algorithm of Lecerf, with now a polynomial complexity in the volume of the
Newton polytope. We adopt a geometrical point of view, the main tool being
derived from some algebraic osculation criterions in toric varieties.Comment: 22 page
Stochastic collocation on unstructured multivariate meshes
Collocation has become a standard tool for approximation of parameterized
systems in the uncertainty quantification (UQ) community. Techniques for
least-squares regularization, compressive sampling recovery, and interpolatory
reconstruction are becoming standard tools used in a variety of applications.
Selection of a collocation mesh is frequently a challenge, but methods that
construct geometrically "unstructured" collocation meshes have shown great
potential due to attractive theoretical properties and direct, simple
generation and implementation. We investigate properties of these meshes,
presenting stability and accuracy results that can be used as guides for
generating stochastic collocation grids in multiple dimensions.Comment: 29 pages, 6 figure
A Generic Position Based Method for Real Root Isolation of Zero-Dimensional Polynomial Systems
We improve the local generic position method for isolating the real roots of
a zero-dimensional bivariate polynomial system with two polynomials and extend
the method to general zero-dimensional polynomial systems. The method mainly
involves resultant computation and real root isolation of univariate polynomial
equations. The roots of the system have a linear univariate representation. The
complexity of the method is for the bivariate case, where
, resp., is an upper bound on the degree, resp., the
maximal coefficient bitsize of the input polynomials. The algorithm is
certified with probability 1 in the multivariate case. The implementation shows
that the method is efficient, especially for bivariate polynomial systems.Comment: 24 pages, 5 figure
High-Dimensional Stochastic Design Optimization by Adaptive-Sparse Polynomial Dimensional Decomposition
This paper presents a novel adaptive-sparse polynomial dimensional
decomposition (PDD) method for stochastic design optimization of complex
systems. The method entails an adaptive-sparse PDD approximation of a
high-dimensional stochastic response for statistical moment and reliability
analyses; a novel integration of the adaptive-sparse PDD approximation and
score functions for estimating the first-order design sensitivities of the
statistical moments and failure probability; and standard gradient-based
optimization algorithms. New analytical formulae are presented for the design
sensitivities that are simultaneously determined along with the moments or the
failure probability. Numerical results stemming from mathematical functions
indicate that the new method provides more computationally efficient design
solutions than the existing methods. Finally, stochastic shape optimization of
a jet engine bracket with 79 variables was performed, demonstrating the power
of the new method to tackle practical engineering problems.Comment: 18 pages, 2 figures, to appear in Sparse Grids and
