Piercing Translates and Homothets of a Convex Body
According to a classical result of Gr¨unbaum, the transversal number τ(F) of any family F of pairwise-intersecting translates or homothets of a convex body C in Rd is bounded by...

Improved Particle Swarm Optimization with low-discrepancy sequences
— Quasirandom or low discrepancy sequences, such as the Van der Corput, Sobol, Faure, Halton (named after their inventors) etc. are less random than a pseudorandom number sequenc...

"Almost Stable" Matchings in the Roommates Problem
An instance of the classical Stable Roommates problem (sr) need not admit a stable matching. This motivates the problem of finding a matching that is “as stable as possible”, ...
