We study a class of functional which can be used for matching objects which can be represented as mappings from a fixed interval, I, to some "feature space." This class o...
Recent information hiding schemes are scrutinized in terms of their cryptographic performance. We establish conditions under which the key equivocation function is optimal for the...
The rigidity of squares of graphs in three-space has important applications to the study of flexibility in molecules. The Molecular Conjecture, posed in 1984 by T-S. Tay and W. Wh...
We study a variant of the maximum coverage problem which we label the maximum coverage problem with group budget constraints (MCG). We are given a collection of sets S = {S1, S2, ....
We present new primal-dual algorithms for several network design problems. The problems considered are the generalized Steiner tree problem (GST), the directed Steiner tree proble...
