Faster Algorithms for Multivariate Interpolation With Multiplicities and Simultaneous Polynomial Approximations

F eb 2 01 4 Faster Algorithms for Multivariate Interpolation with Multiplicities and Simultaneous Polynomial Approximations ∗

The interpolation step in the Guruswami-Sudan algorithm has attracted a lot of interest and it is now solved by many algorithms in the literature; they use either structured linear algebra or basis reduction for polynomial lattices. This problem of interpolation with multiplicities has been generalized to multivariate polynomials; in this context, to our knowledge only the approach based on pol...

Improved Sparse Multivariate Polynomial Interpolation Algorithms

We consider the problem of interpolating sparse multivariate polynomials from their values. We discuss two algorithms for sparse interpolation, one due to Ben-Or and Tiwari (1988) and the other due to Zippel (1988). We present efficient algorithms for finding the rank of certain special Toeplitz systems arising in the Ben-Or and Tiwari algorithm and for solving transposed Vandermonde systems of...

Faster Sparse Multivariate Polynomial Interpolation of Straight-Line Programs

Given a straight-line program whose output is a polynomial function of the inputs, we present a new algorithm to compute a concise representation of that unknown function. Our algorithm can handle any case where the unknown function is a multivariate polynomial, with coefficients in an arbitrary finite field, and with a reasonable number of nonzero terms but possibly very large degree. It is co...

On multivariate polynomial interpolation

We provide a map Θ 7→ ΠΘ which associates each finite set Θ of points in C with a polynomial space ΠΘ from which interpolation to arbitrary data given at the points in Θ is possible and uniquely so. Among all polynomial spaces Q from which interpolation at Θ is uniquely possible, our ΠΘ is of smallest degree. It is also Dand scale-invariant. Our map is monotone, thus providing a Newton form for...
