In this paper, we present algorithms for the approximation of multivariate periodic functions by trigonometric polynomials. The approximation is based on sampling of multivariate functions on rank-1 lattices. To this end, we study the approximation of periodic functions of a certain smoothness. Our considerations include functions from periodic Sobolev spaces of generalized mixed smoothness. Recently an algorithm for the trigonometric interpolation on generalized sparse grids for this class of functions was investigated by Griebel and Hamaekers (2014). The main advantage of our method is that the algorithm is based mainly on a single one-dimensional fast Fourier transform, and that the arithmetic complexity of the algorithm depends only on the cardinality of the support of the trigonometric polynomial in the frequency domain. Therefore, we investigate trigonometric polynomials with frequencies supported on hyperbolic crosses and energy norm based hyperbolic crosses in more detail. Furthermore, we present an algorithm for sampling multivariate functions on perturbed rank-1 lattices and show the numerical stability of the suggested method. Numerical results are presented up to dimension d = 10 , which confirm the theoretical findings. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The efficient evaluation of multivariate polynomials at many points is an important operation for polynomial system solving. Kedlaya and Umans have recently devised a theoretically efficient algorithm for this task when the coefficients are integers or when they lie in a finite field. In this paper, we assume that the set of points where we need to evaluate is fixed and "sufficiently generic". Under these restrictions, we present a quasi-optimal algorithm for multi-point evaluation over general fields. We also present a quasi-optimal algorithm for the opposite interpolation task.

This paper describes an algorithm which computes the characteristic polynomial of a matrix over a field within the same asymptotic complexity, up to constant factors, as the multiplication of two square matrices. Previously, this was only achieved by resorting to genericity assumptions or randomization techniques, while the best known complexity bound with a general deterministic algorithm was obtained by Keller-Gehrig in 1985 and involves logarithmic factors. Our algorithm computes more generally the determinant of a univariate polynomial matrix in reduced form, and relies on new subroutines for transforming shifted reduced matrices into shifted weak Popov matrices, and shifted weak Popov matrices into shifted Popov matrices.

In this paper, we study tractability of L 2 -approximation of one-periodic functions from weighted Korobov spaces in the worst-case setting. The considered weights are of product form. For the algorithms we allow information from the class Λ all consisting of all continuous linear functionals and from the class Λ std , which only consists of function evaluations. We provide necessary and sufficient conditions on the weights of the function space for quasi-polynomial tractability, uniform weak tractability, weak tractability and (σ , τ) -weak tractability. Together with the already known results for strong polynomial and polynomial tractability, our findings provide a complete picture of the weight conditions for all current standard notions of tractability.
