We consider extending the visibility polygon of a given point $q$, inside a simple polygon $P$ by converting some edges of $P$ to mirrors. We will show that several variations of the problem of finding mirror-edges to add precisely $k$…

The Exact Matching (EM) problem asks whether there exists a perfect matching which uses a prescribed number of red edges in a red/blue edge-colored graph. While there exists a randomized polynomial-time algorithm for the problem, only some…

We claim to resolve the P=?NP problem via a formal argument for P=NP.

Is perfect matching in NC? That is, is there a deterministic fast parallel algorithm for it? This has been an outstanding open question in theoretical computer science for over three decades, ever since the discovery of RNC matching…

Here we prove that counting maximum matchings in planar, bipartite graphs is #P-complete. This is somewhat surprising in the light that the number of perfect matchings in planar graphs can be computed in polynomial time. We also prove that…

The presented material is devoted to the equivalent conversion from the vertex graphs to the edge graphs. We suggest that the proved theorems solve the problem of the isomorphism of graphs, the problem of the graph's enumeration with the…

In this article, we discuss the question of whether P equals NP, we do not follow the line of research of many researchers, which is to try to find such a problem Q, and the problem Q belongs to the class of NP-complete, if the problem Q is…

We show that it is coNP-complete to decide whether a given proof structure of pomset logic is a correct proof net, using the graph-theoretic used in a previous paper of ours (arXiv:1901.10247).

We reprove that all the matchings constructed during Edmonds' weighted perfect matching algorithm are optimal among those of the same cardinality (provided that certain mild restrictions are obeyed on the choices the algorithm makes). We…

Let $A \subseteq E$ be a given extension of Hopf (respectively Lie) algebras. We answer the \emph{classifying complements problem} (CCP) which consists of describing and classifying all complements of $A$ in $E$. If $H$ is a given…

We introduce a simplified framework for ord-transitive models and Shelah's non elementary proper (nep) theory. We also introduce a new construction for the countable support nep iteration.

This paper introduces the \emph{$d$-distance matching problem}, in which we are given a bipartite graph $G=(S,T;E)$ with $S=\{s_1,\dots,s_n\}$, a weight function on the edges and an integer $d\in\mathbb Z_+$. The goal is to find a maximum…

We consider finite element approximations of ill-posed elliptic problems with conditional stability. The notion of {\emph{optimal error estimates}} is defined including both convergence with respect to mesh parameter and perturbations in…

Every polygon $P$ can be companioned by a cap polygon $\hat P$ such that $P$ and $\hat P$ serve as two parts of the boundary surface of a polyhedron $V$. Pairs of vertices on $P$ and $\hat P$ are identified successively to become vertices…

The NP-complete Permutation Pattern Matching problem asks whether a permutation P (the pattern) can be matched into a permutation T (the text). A matching is an order-preserving embedding of P into T. In the Generalized Permutation Pattern…

The convergence of expectation-maximization (EM)-based algorithms typically requires continuity of the likelihood function with respect to all the unknown parameters (optimization variables). The requirement is not met when parameters…

Since Chen's Entity-Relationship (ER) model, conceptual modeling has been playing a fundamental role in relational data design. In this paper we consider an extended ER (EER) model enriched with cardinality constraints, disjointness…

By setting up appropriate uniform convergence structures, we are able to reformulate the Order Completion Method of Oberguggenberger and Rosinger in a setting that more closely resembles the usual topological constructions for solving PDEs.…

In this paper, we propose a novel mixture of expert architecture for learning polyhedral classifiers. We learn the parameters of the classifierusing an expectation maximization algorithm. Wederive the generalization bounds of the…

For a graph $G=(V,E),$ a matching $M$ is a set of independent edges. The topic of matchings is well studied in graph theory. In this paper many varieties of matchings are discussed.
