— This paper investigates the problem of secret key transmissions for an arbitrary Alice-Bob pair in Quantum Key Distribution (QKD)-based networks. We develop a realistic QKDbase...
Establishing the correct correspondence between features in an image set remains a challenging problem amongst computer vision researchers. In fact, the combinatorial nature of fe...
A coloring is proper if each color class induces connected components of order one (where the order of a graph is its number of vertices). Here we study relaxations of proper two-c...
The problem of grooming is central in studies of optical networks. In graph-theoretic terms, it can be viewed as assigning colors to given paths in a graph, so that at most g (the ...
We consider markets in the classical Arrow-Debreu model. There are n agents and m goods. Each buyer has a concave utility function (of the bundle of goods he/she buys) and an init...
