Let k3(n) denote the minimal cardinality of a ternary code of length n and covering radius one. In this paper we show k3(7) ≥ 156 and k3(8) ≥ 402 improving on the best previou...
Let G be the intersection graph of a finite family of convex sets obtained by translations of a fixed convex set in the plane. We show that every such graph with clique number k i...

Simulated tempering (ST) is an established Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methodology for sampling from a multimodal density π(θ). The technique involves introducing an auxilia...
Abstract. An (α, β)-spanner of a graph G is a subgraph H that approximates distances in G within a multiplicative factor α and an additive error β, ensuring that for any two no...

This paper studies the group testing problem in graphs as follows. Given a graph G = (V, E), determine the minimum number t(G) such that t(G) tests are sufficient to identify an u...
