Color-coding is a technique to design fixed-parameter algorithms for several NP-complete subgraph isomorphism problems. Somewhat surprisingly, not much work has so far been spent ...
The design of effective neighborhood structures is fundamentally important for creating better local search and metaheuristic algorithms for combinatorial optimization. Significant...
We present an algorithm running in time O(n log n) which decides if a wreathclosed permutation class Av(B) given by its finite basis B contains a finite number of simple permutati...
Submodular function minimization is a polynomially-solvable combinatorial problem. Unfortunately the best known general-purpose algorithms have high-order polynomial time complexi...
The combination of source coding with decoder side-information (Wyner-Ziv problem) and channel coding with encoder side-information (Gel'fand-Pinsker problem) can be optimall...
