Tensor Reconstruction Beyond Constant Rank

Authors: Shir Peleg, Amir Shpilka, and Ben Lee Volk

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 287, 15th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2024)


Abstract
We give reconstruction algorithms for subclasses of depth-3 arithmetic circuits. In particular, we obtain the first efficient algorithm for finding tensor rank, and an optimal tensor decomposition as a sum of rank-one tensors, when given black-box access to a tensor of super-constant rank. Specifically, we obtain the following results: 1) A deterministic algorithm that reconstructs polynomials computed by Σ^{[k]}⋀^{[d]}Σ circuits in time poly(n,d,c) ⋅ poly(k)^{k^{k^{10}}}, 2) A randomized algorithm that reconstructs polynomials computed by multilinear Σ^{[k]}∏^{[d]}Σ circuits in time poly(n,d,c) ⋅ k^{k^{k^{k^{O(k)}}}}, 3) A randomized algorithm that reconstructs polynomials computed by set-multilinear Σ^{[k]}∏^{[d]}Σ circuits in time poly(n,d,c) ⋅ k^{k^{k^{k^{O(k)}}}}, where c = log q if 𝔽 = 𝔽_q is a finite field, and c equals the maximum bit complexity of any coefficient of f if 𝔽 is infinite. Prior to our work, polynomial time algorithms for the case when the rank, k, is constant, were given by Bhargava, Saraf and Volkovich [Vishwas Bhargava et al., 2021]. Another contribution of this work is correcting an error from a paper of Karnin and Shpilka [Zohar Shay Karnin and Amir Shpilka, 2009] (with some loss in parameters) that also affected Theorem 1.6 of [Vishwas Bhargava et al., 2021]. Consequently, the results of [Zohar Shay Karnin and Amir Shpilka, 2009; Vishwas Bhargava et al., 2021] continue to hold, with a slightly worse setting of parameters. For fixing the error we systematically study the relation between syntactic and semantic notions of rank of Σ Π Σ circuits, and the corresponding partitions of such circuits. We obtain our improved running time by introducing a technique for learning rank preserving coordinate-subspaces. Both [Zohar Shay Karnin and Amir Shpilka, 2009] and [Vishwas Bhargava et al., 2021] tried all choices of finding the "correct" coordinates, which, due to the size of the set, led to having a fast growing function of k at the exponent of n. We manage to find these spaces in time that is still growing fast with k, yet it is only a fixed polynomial in n.

Derandomization via Symmetric Polytopes: Poly-Time Factorization of Certain Sparse Polynomials

Authors: Pranav Bisht and Nitin Saxena

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 250, 42nd IARCS Annual Conference on Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science (FSTTCS 2022)


Abstract
More than three decades ago, after a series of results, Kaltofen and Trager (J. Symb. Comput. 1990) designed a randomized polynomial time algorithm for factorization of multivariate circuits. Derandomizing this algorithm, even for restricted circuit classes, is an important open problem. In particular, the case of s-sparse polynomials, having individual degree d = O(1), is very well-studied (Shpilka, Volkovich ICALP'10; Volkovich RANDOM'17; Bhargava, Saraf and Volkovich FOCS'18, JACM'20). We give a complete derandomization for this class assuming that the input is a symmetric polynomial over rationals. Generally, we prove an s^poly(d)-sparsity bound for the factors of symmetric polynomials over any field. This characterizes the known worst-case examples of sparsity blow-up for sparse polynomial factoring. To factor f, we use techniques from convex geometry and exploit symmetry (only) in the Newton polytope of f. We prove a crucial result about convex polytopes, by introducing the concept of "low min-entropy", which might also be of independent interest.

RANDOM
Learning Generalized Depth Three Arithmetic Circuits in the Non-Degenerate Case

Authors: Vishwas Bhargava, Ankit Garg, Neeraj Kayal, and Chandan Saha

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 245, Approximation, Randomization, and Combinatorial Optimization. Algorithms and Techniques (APPROX/RANDOM 2022)


Abstract
Consider a homogeneous degree d polynomial f = T₁ + ⋯ + T_s, T_i = g_i(𝓁_{i,1}, …, 𝓁_{i, m}) where g_i’s are homogeneous m-variate degree d polynomials and 𝓁_{i,j}’s are linear polynomials in n variables. We design a (randomized) learning algorithm that given black-box access to f, computes black-boxes for the T_i’s. The running time of the algorithm is poly(n, m, d, s) and the algorithm works under some non-degeneracy conditions on the linear forms and the g_i’s, and some additional technical assumptions n ≥ (md)², s ≤ n^{d/4}. The non-degeneracy conditions on 𝓁_{i,j}’s constitute non-membership in a variety, and hence are satisfied when the coefficients of 𝓁_{i,j}’s are chosen uniformly and randomly from a large enough set. The conditions on g_i’s are satisfied for random polynomials and also for natural polynomials common in the study of arithmetic complexity like determinant, permanent, elementary symmetric polynomial, iterated matrix multiplication. A particularly appealing algorithmic corollary is the following: Given black-box access to an f = Det_r(L^(1)) + … + Det_r(L^(s)), where L^(k) = (𝓁_{i,j}^(k))_{i,j} with 𝓁_{i,j}^(k)’s being linear forms in n variables chosen randomly, there is an algorithm which in time poly(n, r) outputs matrices (M^(k))_k of linear forms s.t. there exists a permutation π: [s] → [s] with Det_r(M^(k)) = Det_r(L^(π(k))). Our work follows the works [Neeraj Kayal and Chandan Saha, 2019; Garg et al., 2020] which use lower bound methods in arithmetic complexity to design average case learning algorithms. It also vastly generalizes the result in [Neeraj Kayal and Chandan Saha, 2019] about learning depth three circuits, which is a special case where each g_i is just a monomial. At the core of our algorithm is the partial derivative method which can be used to prove lower bounds for generalized depth three circuits. To apply the general framework in [Neeraj Kayal and Chandan Saha, 2019; Garg et al., 2020], we need to establish that the non-degeneracy conditions arising out of applying the framework with the partial derivative method are satisfied in the random case. We develop simple but general and powerful tools to establish this, which might be useful in designing average case learning algorithms for other arithmetic circuit models.

Improved Hitting Set for Orbit of ROABPs

Authors: Vishwas Bhargava and Sumanta Ghosh

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 207, Approximation, Randomization, and Combinatorial Optimization. Algorithms and Techniques (APPROX/RANDOM 2021)


Abstract
The orbit of an n-variate polynomial f(x) over a field 𝔽 is the set {f(Ax+b) ∣ A ∈ GL(n, 𝔽) and b ∈ 𝔽ⁿ}, and the orbit of a polynomial class is the union of orbits of all the polynomials in it. In this paper, we give improved constructions of hitting-sets for the orbit of read-once oblivious algebraic branching programs (ROABPs) and a related model. Over fields with characteristic zero or greater than d, we construct a hitting set of size (ndw)^{O(w²log n⋅ min{w², dlog w})} for the orbit of ROABPs in unknown variable order where d is the individual degree and w is the width of ROABPs. We also give a hitting set of size (ndw)^{O(min{w²,dlog w})} for the orbit of polynomials computed by w-width ROABPs in any variable order. Our hitting sets improve upon the results of Saha and Thankey [Chandan Saha and Bhargav Thankey, 2021] who gave an (ndw)^{O(dlog w)} size hitting set for the orbit of commutative ROABPs (a subclass of any-order ROABPs) and (nw)^{O(w⁶log n)} size hitting set for the orbit of multilinear ROABPs. Designing better hitting sets in large individual degree regime, for instance d > n, was asked as an open problem by [Chandan Saha and Bhargav Thankey, 2021] and this work solves it in small width setting. We prove some new rank concentration results by establishing low-cone concentration for the polynomials over vector spaces, and they strengthen some previously known low-support based rank concentrations shown in [Michael A. Forbes et al., 2013]. These new low-cone concentration results are crucial in our hitting set construction, and may be of independent interest. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time when low-cone rank concentration has been used for designing hitting sets.

Hitting Sets for Orbits of Circuit Classes and Polynomial Families

Authors: Chandan Saha and Bhargav Thankey

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 207, Approximation, Randomization, and Combinatorial Optimization. Algorithms and Techniques (APPROX/RANDOM 2021)


Abstract
The orbit of an n-variate polynomial f(𝐱) over a field 𝔽 is the set {f(A𝐱+𝐛) : A ∈ GL(n,𝔽) and 𝐛 ∈ 𝔽ⁿ}. In this paper, we initiate the study of explicit hitting sets for the orbits of polynomials computable by several natural and well-studied circuit classes and polynomial families. In particular, we give quasi-polynomial time hitting sets for the orbits of: 1) Low-individual-degree polynomials computable by commutative ROABPs. This implies quasi-polynomial time hitting sets for the orbits of the elementary symmetric polynomials. 2) Multilinear polynomials computable by constant-width ROABPs. This implies a quasi-polynomial time hitting set for the orbits of the family {IMM_{3,d}}_{d ∈ ℕ}, which is complete for arithmetic formulas. 3) Polynomials computable by constant-depth, constant-occur formulas. This implies quasi-polynomial time hitting sets for the orbits of multilinear depth-4 circuits with constant top fan-in, and also polynomial-time hitting sets for the orbits of the power symmetric and the sum-product polynomials. 4) Polynomials computable by occur-once formulas.

Counting Basic-Irreducible Factors Mod p^k in Deterministic Poly-Time and p-Adic Applications

Authors: Ashish Dwivedi, Rajat Mittal, and Nitin Saxena

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 137, 34th Computational Complexity Conference (CCC 2019)


Abstract
Finding an irreducible factor, of a polynomial f(x) modulo a prime p, is not known to be in deterministic polynomial time. Though there is such a classical algorithm that counts the number of irreducible factors of f mod p. We can ask the same question modulo prime-powers p^k. The irreducible factors of f mod p^k blow up exponentially in number; making it hard to describe them. Can we count those irreducible factors mod p^k that remain irreducible mod p? These are called basic-irreducible. A simple example is in f=x^2+px mod p^2; it has p many basic-irreducible factors. Also note that, x^2+p mod p^2 is irreducible but not basic-irreducible! We give an algorithm to count the number of basic-irreducible factors of f mod p^k in deterministic poly(deg(f),k log p)-time. This solves the open questions posed in (Cheng et al, ANTS'18 & Kopp et al, Math.Comp.'19). In particular, we are counting roots mod p^k; which gives the first deterministic poly-time algorithm to compute Igusa zeta function of f. Also, our algorithm efficiently partitions the set of all basic-irreducible factors (possibly exponential) into merely deg(f)-many disjoint sets, using a compact tree data structure and split ideals.
