We consider the problems of computing the Euclidean norm of the difference of two vectors and, as an application, computing the large components (Heavy Hitters) in the difference. We provide protocols that are approximate but private in the semi-honest model and efficient in terms of time and communication in the vector length N . We provide the following, which can serve as building blocks to ...

It is well known that each bounded ultraquasi-metric on a set induces, in a natural way, an [0,1]-fuzzy poset. On the other hand, each [0,1]-fuzzy poset can be seen as a stationary fuzzy ultraquasi-metric space for the continuous t-norm Min. By extending this construction to any continuous t-norm, a stationary fuzzy quasi-metric space is obtained. Motivated by these facts, we present several co...

We investigate the reflexivity of the isometry group and the automorphism group of some important metric linear spaces and algebras. The paper consists of the following sections: 1. Preliminaries. 2. Sequence spaces. 3. Spaces of measurable functions. 4. Hardy spaces. 5. Banach algebras of holomorphic functions. 6. Fréchet algebras of holomorphic functions. 7. Spaces of continuous functions. In...

The Schatten-p norm (0 < p < 1) has been widely used to replace the nuclear norm for better approximating the rank function. However, existing methods are either 1) not scalable for large scale problems due to relying on singular value decomposition (SVD) in every iteration, or 2) specific to some p values, e.g., 1/2, and 2/3. In this paper, we show that for any p, p1, and p2 > 0 satisfying 1/p...

Recent observational data have shown two important results about cosmic inflation: First, the primordial power spectrum is approximately scale invariant. Secondly, space–time geometry during inflation quasi-de Sitter. In this paper, we study background field method and concept of negative norm states in framework Krein space to use early universe cosmology. For inflaton equation, based on obser...

In this paper, we present a new optimal interpolation error estimate in Lp norm (1 ≤ p ≤ ∞) for finite element simplicial meshes in any spatial dimension. A sufficient condition for a mesh to be nearly optimal is that it is quasi-uniform under a new metric defined by a modified Hessian matrix of the function to be interpolated. We also give new functionals for the global moving mesh method and ...
