The Shannon capacity of a graph and the independence numbers of its powers
The independence numbers of powers of graphs have been long studied, under several definitions of graph products, and in particular, under the strong graph product. We show that t...

Highly Efficient Gradient Computation for Density-Constrained Analytical Placement
Abstract--Recent analytical global placers use density constraints to approximate nonoverlap constraints, and these show very successful results. This paper unifies a wide range of...

Mean-Variance Optimization in Markov Decision Processes
We consider finite horizon Markov decision processes under performance measures that involve both the mean and the variance of the cumulative reward. We show that either randomiz...
