Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

arXiv:2606. 29477v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The specification number $\sigma_n(f)$ of a Boolean threshold function $f$ on $n$ variables is the least number of points whose $f$-values determine $f$ uniquely among all threshold functions.

Improved Upper Bounds for Slicing the Hypercube

arXiv:2602. 16807v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: A collection of hyperplanes $\mathcal{H}$ slices all edges of the $n$-dimensional hypercube $Q_n$ with vertex set $\{-1,1\}^n$ if, for every edge $e$ in the hypercube, there exists a hyperplane in $\mathcal{H}$ intersecting $e$ in its interior.

A simplex-based measure of symmetry

arXiv:2607. 03815v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: For compact convex sets $L,K \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, denote by $\lambda_K(L)$ the smallest size of a homothet of $K$ that contains $L$.

Formalizing Flag Algebras in Lean

arXiv:2607. 23500v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Razborov's flag algebra method is a powerful tool for proving asymptotic inequalities in extremal graph theory, often reducing the task to finding a finite certificate by semidefinite programming.

The VC dimension of partial concept classes via Radon's theorem

arXiv:2607. 10751v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Following Alon, Hanneke, Holzman, and Moran (FOCS 2021), we define a partial concept class (PCC) as a family of partial functions \(f: V\to\{0,1,\ast\}\); equivalently, its concepts partition the ground set into black ($f^{-1}(1)$), grey ($f^{-1}(\ast)$), and white parts ($f^{-1}(0)$).
