Abstract. The Berth Allocation Problem (BAP) consists on programming and allocating ships to berthing areas along a quay. The BAP is modeled as a vehicle routing problem and a rece...

In this paper, we address the problem of deciding absolute irreducibility of multivariate polynomials. Our work has been motivated by a recent work due to Gao et. al. [1, 2, 3] wh...
Abstract. This paper proposes a mathematical programming framew ork for combining SVMs with possibly di erent kernels. Compared to single SVMs, the advantage of this approach is tw...
We reprove that the approximate degree of the OR function on n bits is ( n). We consider a linear program which is feasible if and only if there is an approximate polynomial for ...
In this paper we propose a new integer programming formulation for the multilevel facility location problem and a novel 3-approximation algorithm based on LP rounding. The linear ...
