چکیده

A major open problem in the field of metric embedding is the existence of dimension reduction for n-point subsets of Euclidean space, such that both distortion and dimension depend only on the doubling constant of the pointset, and not on its cardinality. In this paper, we negate this possibility for `p spaces with p > 2. In particular, we introduce an n-point subset of `p with doubling constant O(1), and demonstrate that any embedding of the set into `p with distortionD must haveD ≥ Ω (( c logn d ) 1 2− 1 p ) .

Dimension Reduction Techniques for ℓp (1<p<2), with Applications

For Euclidean space (`2), there exists the powerful dimension reduction transform of Johnson and Lindenstrauss [26], with a host of known applications. Here, we consider the problem of dimension reduction for all `p spaces 1 ≤ p ≤ 2. Although strong lower bounds are known for dimension reduction in `1, Ostrovsky and Rabani [40] successfully circumvented these by presenting an `1 embedding that ...

Metric Structures in L1: Dimension, Snowflakes, and Average Distortion

We study the metric properties of finite subsets of L1. The analysis of such metrics is central to a number of important algorithmic problems involving the cut structure of weighted graphs, including the Sparsest Cut Problem, one of the most compelling open problems in the field of approximation algorithms. Additionally, many open questions in geometric non-linear functional analysis involve th...

Biochemical and morphological changes in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells induced by treatment of rats with p-Nonylphenol

Objective(s):In previous investigations, we have shown para-nonylphenol (p-NP) caused significant reduction of proliferation and differentiation of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in vitro. In this study, we first treat the rats with p-NP, then carried out the biochemical and morphological studies on MSCs. Materials and Methods: Proliferation property of cells was evaluated with t...

1 4 M ay 2 01 5 A Nonlinear Approach to Dimension Reduction ∗

The l2 flattening lemma of Johnson and Lindenstrauss [JL84] is a powerful tool for dimension reduction. It has been conjectured that the target dimension bounds can be refined and bounded in terms of the intrinsic dimensionality of the data set (for example, the doubling dimension). One such problem was proposed by Lang and Plaut [LP01] (see also [GKL03, Mat02, ABN08, CGT10]), and is still open...
