The theory of mixed finite element methods for solving different types of elliptic partial differential equations in saddle-point formulation is well established since many decades. However, this topic was mostly studied for variational formulations defined upon the same finite-element product spaces of both shape- and test-pairs of primal variable-multiplier. Whenever these two product spaces are different the saddle point problem is asymmetric. It turns out that the conditions to be satisfied by the finite elements product spaces stipulated in the few works on this case may be of limited use in practice. The purpose of this paper is to provide an in-depth analysis of the well-posedness and the uniform stability of asymmetric approximate saddle point problems, based on the theory of continuous linear operators on Hilbert spaces. Our approach leads to necessary and sufficient conditions for such properties to hold, expressed in a readily exploitable form with fine constants. In particular standard interpolation theory suffices to estimate the error of a conforming method.

We consider the problem of learning Neural Ordinary Differential Equations (neural ODEs) within the context of Linear Parameter-Varying (LPV) systems in continuous-time. LPV systems contain bilinear systems which are known to be universal approximators for non-linear systems. Moreover, a large class of neural ODEs can be embedded into LPV systems. As our main contribution we provide Probably Approximately Correct (PAC) bounds under stability for LPV systems related to neural ODEs. The resulting bounds have the advantage that they do not depend on the integration interval.

Forward simulation-based uncertainty quantification that studies the distribution of quantities of interest (QoI) is a crucial component for computationally robust engineering design and prediction. There is a large body of literature devoted to accurately assessing statistics of QoIs, and in particular, multilevel or multifidelity approaches are known to be effective, leveraging cost-accuracy tradeoffs between a given ensemble of models. However, effective algorithms that can estimate the full distribution of QoIs are still under active development. In this paper, we introduce a general multifidelity framework for estimating the cumulative distribution function (CDF) of a vector-valued QoI associated with a high-fidelity model under a budget constraint. Given a family of appropriate control variates obtained from lower-fidelity surrogates, our framework involves identifying the most cost-effective model subset and then using it to build an approximate control variates estimator for the target CDF. We instantiate the framework by constructing a family of control variates using intermediate linear approximators and rigorously analyze the corresponding algorithm. Our analysis reveals that the resulting CDF estimator is uniformly consistent and asymptotically optimal as the budget tends to infinity, with only mild moment and regularity assumptions on the joint distribution of QoIs. The approach provides a robust multifidelity CDF estimator that is adaptive to the available budget, does not require \textit{a priori} knowledge of cross-model statistics or model hierarchy, and applies to multiple dimensions. We demonstrate the efficiency and robustness of the approach using test examples of parametric PDEs and stochastic differential equations including both academic instances and more challenging engineering problems.

An $\alpha$-approximate polynomial Turing kernelization is a polynomial-time algorithm that computes an $(\alpha c)$-approximate solution for a parameterized optimization problem when given access to an oracle that can compute $c$-approximate solutions to instances with size bounded by a polynomial in the parameter. Hols et al. [ESA 2020] showed that a wide array of graph problems admit a $(1+\varepsilon)$-approximate polynomial Turing kernelization when parameterized by the treewidth of the graph and left open whether Dominating Set also admits such a kernelization. We show that Dominating Set and several related problems parameterized by treewidth do not admit constant-factor approximate polynomial Turing kernelizations, even with respect to the much larger parameter vertex cover number, under certain reasonable complexity assumptions.On the positive side, we show that all of them do have a $(1+\varepsilon)$-approximate polynomial Turing kernelization for every $\varepsilon>0$ for the joint parameterization by treewidth and maximum degree, a parameter which generalizes cutwidth, for example.

This paper examines the approximation of log-determinant for large-scale symmetric positive definite matrices. Inspired by the variance reduction technique, we split the approximation of $\log\det(A)$ into two parts. The first to compute is the trace of the projection of $\log(A)$ onto a suboptimal subspace, while the second is the trace of the projection on the corresponding orthogonal complementary space. For these two approximations, the stochastic Lanczos quadrature method is used. Furthermore, in the construction of the suboptimal subspace, we utilize a projection-cost-preserving sketch to bound the size of the Gaussian random matrix and the dimension of the suboptimal subspace. We provide a rigorous error analysis for our proposed method and explicit lower bounds for its design parameters, offering guidance for practitioners. We conduct numerical experiments to demonstrate our method's effectiveness and illustrate the quality of the derived bounds.

The Independent Cutset problem asks whether there is a set of vertices in a given graph that is both independent and a cutset. Such a problem is $\textsf{NP}$-complete even when the input graph is planar and has maximum degree five. In this paper, we first present a $\mathcal{O}^*(1.4423^{n})$-time algorithm for the problem. We also show how to compute a minimum independent cutset (if any) in the same running time. Since the property of having an independent cutset is MSO$_1$-expressible, our main results are concerned with structural parameterizations for the problem considering parameters that are not bounded by a function of the clique-width of the input. We present $\textsf{FPT}$-time algorithms for the problem considering the following parameters: the dual of the maximum degree, the dual of the solution size, the size of a dominating set (where a dominating set is given as an additional input), the size of an odd cycle transversal, the distance to chordal graphs, and the distance to $P_5$-free graphs. We close by introducing the notion of $\alpha$-domination, which allows us to identify more fixed-parameter tractable and polynomial-time solvable cases.

For a graph class $\mathcal{G}$, we define the $\mathcal{G}$-modular cardinality of a graph $G$ as the minimum size of a vertex partition of $G$ into modules that each induces a graph in $\mathcal{G}$. This generalizes other module-based graph parameters such as neighborhood diversity and iterated type partition. Moreover, if $\mathcal{G}$ has bounded modular-width, the W[1]-hardness of a problem in $\mathcal{G}$-modular cardinality implies hardness on modular-width, clique-width, and other related parameters. On the other hand, fixed-parameter tractable (FPT) algorithms in $\mathcal{G}$-modular cardinality may provide new ideas for algorithms using such parameters. Several FPT algorithms based on modular partitions compute a solution table in each module, then combine each table into a global solution. This works well when each table has a succinct representation, but as we argue, when no such representation exists, the problem is typically W[1]-hard. We illustrate these ideas on the generic $(\alpha, \beta)$-domination problem, which asks for a set of vertices that contains at least a fraction $\alpha$ of the adjacent vertices of each unchosen vertex, plus some (possibly negative) amount $\beta$. This generalizes known domination problems such as Bounded Degree Deletion, $k$-Domination, and $\alpha$-Domination. We show that for graph classes $\mathcal{G}$ that require arbitrarily large solution tables, these problems are W[1]-hard in the $\mathcal{G}$-modular cardinality, whereas they are fixed-parameter tractable when they admit succinct solution tables. This leads to several new positive and negative results for many domination problems parameterized by known and novel structural graph parameters such as clique-width, modular-width, and $cluster$-modular cardinality.

We study the problem of learning nonparametric distributions in a finite mixture, and establish tight bounds on the sample complexity for learning the component distributions in such models. Namely, we are given i.i.d. samples from a pdf $f$ where $$ f=w_1f_1+w_2f_2, \quad w_1+w_2=1, \quad w_1,w_2>0 $$ and we are interested in learning each component $f_i$. Without any assumptions on $f_i$, this problem is ill-posed. In order to identify the components $f_i$, we assume that each $f_i$ can be written as a convolution of a Gaussian and a compactly supported density $\nu_i$ with $\text{supp}(\nu_1)\cap \text{supp}(\nu_2)=\emptyset$. Our main result shows that $(\frac{1}{\varepsilon})^{\Omega(\log\log \frac{1}{\varepsilon})}$ samples are required for estimating each $f_i$. The proof relies on a quantitative Tauberian theorem that yields a fast rate of approximation with Gaussians, which may be of independent interest. To show this is tight, we also propose an algorithm that uses $(\frac{1}{\varepsilon})^{O(\log\log \frac{1}{\varepsilon})}$ samples to estimate each $f_i$. Unlike existing approaches to learning latent variable models based on moment-matching and tensor methods, our proof instead involves a delicate analysis of an ill-conditioned linear system via orthogonal functions. Combining these bounds, we conclude that the optimal sample complexity of this problem properly lies in between polynomial and exponential, which is not common in learning theory.

Probability density estimation is a core problem of statistics and signal processing. Moment methods are an important means of density estimation, but they are generally strongly dependent on the choice of feasible functions, which severely affects the performance. In this paper, we propose a non-classical parametrization for density estimation using sample moments, which does not require the choice of such functions. The parametrization is induced by the squared Hellinger distance, and the solution of it, which is proved to exist and be unique subject to a simple prior that does not depend on data, and can be obtained by convex optimization. Statistical properties of the density estimator, together with an asymptotic error upper bound are proposed for the estimator by power moments. Applications of the proposed density estimator in signal processing tasks are given. Simulation results validate the performance of the estimator by a comparison to several prevailing methods. To the best of our knowledge, the proposed estimator is the first one in the literature for which the power moments up to an arbitrary even order exactly match the sample moments, while the true density is not assumed to fall within specific function classes.

The accurate and efficient simulation of Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) in and around arbitrarily defined geometries is critical for many application domains. Immersed boundary methods (IBMs) alleviate the usually laborious and time-consuming process of creating body-fitted meshes around complex geometry models (described by CAD or other representations, e.g., STL, point clouds), especially when high levels of mesh adaptivity are required. In this work, we advance the field of IBM in the context of the recently developed Shifted Boundary Method (SBM). In the SBM, the location where boundary conditions are enforced is shifted from the actual boundary of the immersed object to a nearby surrogate boundary, and boundary conditions are corrected utilizing Taylor expansions. This approach allows choosing surrogate boundaries that conform to a Cartesian mesh without losing accuracy or stability. Our contributions in this work are as follows: (a) we show that the SBM numerical error can be greatly reduced by an optimal choice of the surrogate boundary, (b) we mathematically prove the optimal convergence of the SBM for this optimal choice of the surrogate boundary, (c) we deploy the SBM on massively parallel octree meshes, including algorithmic advances to handle incomplete octrees, and (d) we showcase the applicability of these approaches with a wide variety of simulations involving complex shapes, sharp corners, and different topologies. Specific emphasis is given to Poisson's equation and the linear elasticity equations.
