  1. To meet the growing need for extended or exact precision solvers, an efficient framework based on Integer-Preserving Gaussian Elimination (IPGE) has been recently developed, which includes dense/sparse LU/Cholesky factorizations and dense LU/Cholesky factorization updates for column and/or row replacement. This paper discusses our ongoing work developing the sparse LU/Cholesky column/row-replacement update and the sparse rank-l update/downdate. We first present some basic background for the exact factorization framework based on IPGE. Then we give our proposed algorithms along with some implementation and data-structure details. Finally, we provide some experimental results showcasing the performance of our update algorithms. Specifically, we show that updating these exact factorizations can typically be 10x to 100x faster than (re-)factorizing the matrices from scratch.

  2. Recursive calls over recursive data are useful for generating probability distributions, and probabilistic programming allows computations over these distributions to be expressed in a modular and intuitive way. Exact inference is also useful, but unfortunately, existing probabilistic programming languages do not perform exact inference on recursive calls over recursive data, forcing programmers to code many applications manually. We introduce a probabilistic language in which a wide variety of recursion can be expressed naturally, and inference carried out exactly. For instance, probabilistic pushdown automata and their generalizations are easy to express, and polynomial-time parsing algorithms for them are derived automatically. We eliminate recursive data types using program transformations related to defunctionalization and refunctionalization. These transformations are assured correct by a linear type system, and a successful choice of transformations, if there is one, is guaranteed to be found by a greedy algorithm.

  3. A fullerene, or buckyball, is a trivalent graph on the sphere with only pentagonal and hexagonal faces. Building on ideas of Thurston, we use modular forms to give an exact formula for the number of oriented fullerenes with a given number of vertices.
