We study the “inter-distance constraint”, also known as the global minimum distance constraint, that ensures that the distance between any pair of variables is at least equal ...
Abstract. Interval analysis is a powerful tool which allows to design branch-and-bound algorithms able to solve many global optimization problems. In this paper we present new adap...
Part I of this paper showed that the hidden subgroup problem over the symmetric group--including the special case relevant to Graph Isomorphism--cannot be efficiently solved by st...

We propose a new iterative approach for solving linear programs over convex cones. Assuming that Slaters condition is satisfied, the conic problem is transformed to the minimizatio...
Abstract. We consider the problem of estimating the length of a shortest path in a DAG whose edge lengths are known only approximately but can be determined exactly at a cost. Init...
