Let $\mathcal{A}$ be an arrangement of straight lines in the plane (or planes in $\mathbb{R}^3$). The $k$-crossing visibility of a point $p$ on $\mathcal{A}$ is the set of point $q$ in elements of $\mathcal{A}$ such that the segment $pq$ intersects at most $k$ elements of $\mathcal{A}$. In this paper, we obtain algorithms for computing the $k$-crossing visibility. In particular we obtain $O(n\log n + kn)$ and $O(n\log n + k^2n)$ time algorithms, for arrangements of lines in the plane and planes in $\mathbb{R}^3$; which are optimal for $k=\Omega(\log n)$ and $k=\Omega(\sqrt{\log n})$, respectively. We also introduce another algorithm for computing $k$-crossing visibilities on polygons, which reaches the same asymptotical time as the one presented by Bahoo et al. The ideas introduced in this paper can be easily adapted for obtaining $k$-crossing visibilities on other arrangements whose $(\leq k)$-level is known.

A fast and flexible $k$NN procedure is developed for dealing with a semiparametric functional regression model involving both partial-linear and single-index components. Rates of uniform consistency are presented. Simulated experiments highlight the advantages of the $k$NN procedure. A real data analysis is also shown.
The $\mathbb{Z}_2\mathbb{Z}_4\mathbb{Z}_8$-additive codes are subgroups of $\mathbb{Z}_2^{\alpha_1} \times \mathbb{Z}_4^{\alpha_2} \times \mathbb{Z}_8^{\alpha_3}$. A $\mathbb{Z}_2\mathbb{Z}_4\mathbb{Z}_8$-linear Hadamard code is a Hadamard code which is the Gray map image of a $\mathbb{Z}_2\mathbb{Z}_4\mathbb{Z}_8$-additive code. A recursive construction of $\mathbb{Z}_2\mathbb{Z}_4\mathbb{Z}_8$-additive Hadamard codes of type $(\alpha_1,\alpha_2, \alpha_3;t_1,t_2, t_3)$ with $\alpha_1 \neq 0$, $\alpha_2 \neq 0$, $\alpha_3 \neq 0$, $t_1\geq 1$, $t_2 \geq 0$, and $t_3\geq 1$ is known. In this paper, we generalize some known results for $\mathbb{Z}_2\mathbb{Z}_4$-linear Hadamard codes to $\mathbb{Z}_2\mathbb{Z}_4\mathbb{Z}_8$-linear Hadamard codes with $\alpha_1 \neq 0$, $\alpha_2 \neq 0$, and $\alpha_3 \neq 0$. First, we show for which types the corresponding $\mathbb{Z}_2\mathbb{Z}_4\mathbb{Z}_8$-linear Hadamard codes of length $2^t$ are nonlinear. For these codes, we compute the kernel and its dimension, which allows us to give a partial classification of these codes. Moreover, for $3 \leq t \leq 11$, we give a complete classification by providing the exact amount of nonequivalent such codes. We also prove the existence of several families of infinite such nonlinear $\mathbb{Z}_2\mathbb{Z}_4\mathbb{Z}_8$-linear Hadamard codes, which are not equivalent to any other constructed $\mathbb{Z}_2\mathbb{Z}_4\mathbb{Z}_8$-linear Hadamard code, nor to any $\mathbb{Z}_2\mathbb{Z}_4$-linear Hadamard code, nor to any previously constructed $\mathbb{Z}_{2^s}$-linear Hadamard code with $s\geq 2$, with the same length $2^t$.
A stabilizer free weak Galerkin method with implicit $θ$-schemes for fourth order parabolic problems
In this paper, we combine the stabilizer free weak Galerkin (SFWG) method and the implicit $\theta$-schemes in time for $\theta\in [\frac{1}{2},1]$ to solve the fourth-order parabolic problem. In particular, when $\theta =1$, the full-discrete scheme is first-order backward Euler and the scheme is second-order Crank Nicolson scheme if $\theta =\frac{1}{2}$. Next, we analyze the well-posedness of the schemes and deduce the optimal convergence orders of the error in the $H^2$ and $L^2$ norms. Finally, numerical examples confirm the theoretical results.
In Linear Logic ($\mathsf{LL}$), the exponential modality $!$ brings forth a distinction between non-linear proofs and linear proofs, where linear means using an argument exactly once. Differential Linear Logic ($\mathsf{DiLL}$) is an extension of Linear Logic which includes additional rules for $!$ which encode differentiation and the ability of linearizing proofs. On the other hand, Graded Linear Logic ($\mathsf{GLL}$) is a variation of Linear Logic in such a way that $!$ is now indexed over a semiring $R$. This $R$-grading allows for non-linear proofs of degree $r \in R$, such that the linear proofs are of degree $1 \in R$. There has been recent interest in combining these two variations of $\mathsf{LL}$ together and developing Graded Differential Linear Logic ($\mathsf{GDiLL}$). In this paper we present a sequent calculus for $\mathsf{GDiLL}$, as well as introduce its categorical semantics, which we call graded differential categories, using both coderelictions and deriving transformations. We prove that symmetric powers always give graded differential categories, and provide other examples of graded differential categories. We also discuss graded versions of (monoidal) coalgebra modalities, additive bialgebra modalities, and the Seely isomorphisms, as well as their implementations in the sequent calculus of $\mathsf{GDiLL}$.
Given a metric space $(V, d)$ along with an integer $k$, the $k$-Median problem asks to open $k$ centers $C \subseteq V$ to minimize $\sum_{v \in V} d(v, C)$, where $d(v, C) := \min_{c \in C} d(v, c)$. While the best-known approximation ratio of $2.613$ holds for the more general supplier version where an additional set $F \subseteq V$ is given with the restriction $C \subseteq F$, the best known hardness for these two versions are $1+1/e \approx 1.36$ and $1+2/e \approx 1.73$ respectively, using the same reduction from Max $k$-Coverage. We prove the following two results separating them. First, we show a $1.546$-parameterized approximation algorithm that runs in time $f(k) n^{O(1)}$. Since $1+2/e$ is proved to be the optimal approximation ratio for the supplier version in the parameterized setting, this result separates the original $k$-Median from the supplier version. Next, we prove a $1.416$-hardness for polynomial-time algorithms assuming the Unique Games Conjecture. This is achieved via a new fine-grained hardness of Max-$k$-Coverage for small set sizes. Our upper bound and lower bound are derived from almost the same expression, with the only difference coming from the well-known separation between the powers of LP and SDP on (hypergraph) vertex cover.
Given two integers $\ell$ and $p$ as well as $\ell$ graph classes $\mathcal{H}_1,\ldots,\mathcal{H}_\ell$, the problems $\mathsf{GraphPart}(\mathcal{H}_1, \ldots, \mathcal{H}_\ell,p)$, $\mathsf{VertPart}(\mathcal{H}_1, \ldots, \mathcal{H}_\ell)$, and $\mathsf{EdgePart}(\mathcal{H}_1, \ldots, \mathcal{H}_\ell)$ ask, given graph $G$ as input, whether $V(G)$, $V(G)$, $E(G)$ respectively can be partitioned into $\ell$ sets $S_1, \ldots, S_\ell$ such that, for each $i$ between $1$ and $\ell$, $G[S_i] \in \mathcal{H}_i$, $G[S_i] \in \mathcal{H}_i$, $(V(G),S_i) \in \mathcal{H}_i$ respectively. Moreover in $\mathsf{GraphPart}(\mathcal{H}_1, \ldots, \mathcal{H}_\ell,p)$, we request that the number of edges with endpoints in different sets of the partition is bounded by $p$. We show that if there exist dynamic programming tree-decomposition-based algorithms for recognizing the graph classes $\mathcal{H}_i$, for each $i$, then we can constructively create a dynamic programming tree-decomposition-based algorithms for $\mathsf{GraphPart}(\mathcal{H}_1, \ldots, \mathcal{H}_\ell,p)$, $\mathsf{VertPart}(\mathcal{H}_1, \ldots, \mathcal{H}_\ell)$, and $\mathsf{EdgePart}(\mathcal{H}_1, \ldots, \mathcal{H}_\ell)$. We show that, in some known cases, the obtained running times are comparable to those of the best know algorithms.
We present the library \texttt{lymph} for the finite element numerical discretization of coupled multi-physics problems. \texttt{lymph} is a Matlab library for the discretization of partial differential equations based on high-order discontinuous Galerkin methods on polytopal grids (PolyDG) for spatial discretization coupled with suitable finite-difference time marching schemes. The objective of the paper is to introduce the library by describing it in terms of installation, input/output data, and code structure, highlighting -- when necessary -- key implementation aspects related to the method. A user guide, proceeding step-by-step in the implementation and solution of a Poisson problem, is also provided. In the last part of the paper, we show the results obtained for several differential problems, namely the Poisson problem, the heat equation, and the elastodynamics system. Through these examples, we show the convergence properties and highlight some of the main features of the proposed method, i.e. geometric flexibility, high-order accuracy, and robustness with respect to heterogeneous physical parameters.
In this work we investigate the Weihrauch degree of the problem $\mathsf{DS}$ of finding an infinite descending sequence through a given ill-founded linear order, which is shared by the problem $\mathsf{BS}$ of finding a bad sequence through a given non-well quasi-order. We show that $\mathsf{DS}$, despite being hard to solve (it has computable inputs with no hyperarithmetic solution), is rather weak in terms of uniform computational strength. To make the latter precise, we introduce the notion of the deterministic part of a Weihrauch degree. We then generalize $\mathsf{DS}$ and $\mathsf{BS}$ by considering $\boldsymbol{\Gamma}$-presented orders, where $\boldsymbol{\Gamma}$ is a Borel pointclass or $\boldsymbol{\Delta}^1_1$, $\boldsymbol{\Sigma}^1_1$, $\boldsymbol{\Pi}^1_1$. We study the obtained $\mathsf{DS}$-hierarchy and $\mathsf{BS}$-hierarchy of problems in comparison with the (effective) Baire hierarchy and show that they do not collapse at any finite level.
We obtain all possible parameters of Plotkin-optimal two-Lee weight projective codes over $\mathbb{Z}_4,$ together with their weight distributions. We show the existence of codes with these parameters as well as their weight distributions by constructing an infinite family of two-weight codes. Previously known codes constructed by Shi et al. (\emph{Des Codes Cryptogr.} {\bf 88}(3):1-13, 2020) can be derived as a special case of our results. We also prove that the Gray image of any Plotkin-optimal two-Lee weight projective codes over $\mathbb{Z}_4$ has the same parameters and weight distribution as some two-weight binary projective codes of type SU1 in the sense of Calderbank and Kantor (\emph{Bull. Lond. Math. Soc.} {\bf 18}:97-122, 1986).
In this work, we study a class of skew cyclic codes over the ring $R:=\mathbb{Z}_4+v\mathbb{Z}_4,$ where $v^2=v,$ with an automorphism $\theta$ and a derivation $\Delta_\theta,$ namely codes as modules over a skew polynomial ring $R[x;\theta,\Delta_{\theta}],$ whose multiplication is defined using an automorphism $\theta$ and a derivation $\Delta_{\theta}.$ We investigate the structures of a skew polynomial ring $R[x;\theta,\Delta_{\theta}].$ We define $\Delta_{\theta}$-cyclic codes as a generalization of the notion of cyclic codes. The properties of $\Delta_{\theta}$-cyclic codes as well as dual $\Delta_{\theta}$-cyclic codes are derived. As an application, some new linear codes over $\mathbb{Z}_4$ with good parameters are obtained by Plotkin sum construction, also via a Gray map as well as residue and torsion codes of these codes.
