A pseudo-Boolean function is a real-valued function defined on {0, 1}n . A k-bounded function is a pseudo-Boolean function that can be expressed as a sum of subfunctions each of w...
A simple first moment argument shows that in a randomly chosen k-SAT formula with m clauses over n boolean variables, the fraction of satisfiable clauses is 1−2−k +o(1) as m/...
ed tree transducers are abstract models used to study properties bute grammars. One abstraction which occurs when modeling attribute grammars by attributed tree transducers is that...
The objective of this paper is to study a special family of Minkowski sums, that is of polytopes relatively in general position. We show that the maximum number of faces in the su...
