The Computational Complexity of Link Building
We study the problem of adding k new links to a directed graph G(V, E) in order to maximize the minimum PageRank value for a given subset of the nodes. We show that this problem is...

On the Complexity of Parabolic Initial Value Problems with Variable Drift
We study the intrinsic difficulty of solving linear parabolic initial value problems numerically at a single point. We present a worst case analysis for deterministic as well as fo...

Blind Construction of Optimal Nonlinear Recursive Predictors for Discrete Sequences
We present a new method for nonlinear prediction of discrete random sequences under minimal structural assumptions. We give a mathematical construction for optimal predictors of s...

Efficient Generation of Poisson-Disk Sampling Patterns
Poisson Disk sampling patterns are of interest to the graphics community because their blue-noise properties are desirable in sampling patterns for rendering, illumination, and ot...

Large independent sets in regular graphs of large girth
Let G be a d-regular graph with girth g, and let α be the independence number of G. We show that α(G) ≥ 1 2 1 − (d − 1)−2/(d−2) − (g) n where (g) → 0 as g → ∞,...
