We propose a subgradient-based method for finding the maximum feasible subsystem in a collection of closed sets with respect to a given closed set $C$ (MFS$_C$). In this method, we reformulate the MFS$_C$ problem as an $\ell_0$ optimization…

Maximum bipartite matching is a fundamental algorithmic problem which can be solved in polynomial time. We consider a natural variant in which there is a separation constraint: the vertices on one side lie on a path or a grid, and two…
The aim of the present article is to give an introduction to the concept of quasi-unitary equivalence and to define several (pseudo-)metrics on the space of self-adjoint operators acting possibly in different Hilbert spaces. As some of the…
