Why Large Closest String Instances Are Easy to Solve in Practice
We initiate the study of the smoothed complexity of the Closest String problem by proposing a semi-random model of Hamming distance. We restrict interest to the optimization versio...

Geometric Set Cover and Hitting Sets for Polytopes in $R^3$
Suppose we are given a finite set of points P in R3 and a collection of polytopes T that are all translates of the same polytope T. We consider two problems in this paper. The firs...

An Effective Multilevel Memetic Algorithm for Balanced Graph Partitioning
The balanced graph partitioning consists in dividing the vertices of an undirected graph into a given number of subsets of approximately equal size, such that the number of edges c...

On the Complexity of Computing Short Linearly Independent Vectors and Short Bases in a Lattice
Motivated by Ajtai’s worst-case to average-case reduction for lattice problems, we study the complexity of computing short linearly independent vectors (short basis) in a lattic...

Factorization-based lossless compression of inverted indices
Many large-scale Web applications that require ranked top-k retrieval are implemented using inverted indices. An inverted index represents a sparse term-document matrix, where non...
