We resolve the longstanding open problem concerning the computational complexity of Max Cut on interval graphs by showing that it is NP-complete.
We discuss pattern languages for closed pattern mining and learning of interval data and distributional data. We first introduce pattern languages relying on pairs of intersection-based constraints or pairs of inclusion based constraints,…
Non-overlapping codes are block codes that have arisen in diverse contexts of computer science and biology. Applications typically require finding non-overlapping codes with large cardinalities, but the maximum size of non-overlapping codes…
In this paper, we give an important isomorphism between contacyclic codes and cyclic codes over finite principal ideal rings. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of non-trivial cyclic self-dual codes over finite principal…
This paper investigates the use of different transformations for improving the randomness of sequences. In particular, convolutional codes are used for increasing the size of a given sequence and then a random mapping function is used for…
A cross-bifix-free code is a set of words in which no prefix of any length of any word is the suffix of any word in the set. Cross-bifix-free codes arise in the study of distributed sequences for frame synchronization. We provide a new…
This paper deals with a universal coding problem for a certain kind of multiterminal source coding network called a generalized complementary delivery network. In this network, messages from multiple correlated sources are jointly encoded,…
This work introduces a multidimensional generalization of the maximum bisection problem. A mixed integer linear programming formulation is proposed with the proof of its correctness. The numerical tests, made on the randomly generated…
Using linear functional-based duality of modules, we generalize the syndrome decoding algorithm of linear codes over finite fields to those over finite commutative rings. Moreover, If the ring is local the algorithm is simplified by…
We investigate techniques for designing modulation/coding schemes for the wireless two-way relaying channel. The relay is assumed to have perfect channel state information, but the transmitters are assumed to have no channel state…
The index coding problem is studied from an interference alignment perspective, providing new results as well as new insights into, and generalizations of, previously known results. An equivalence is established between multiple unicast…
We investigate the special class of formulas made up of arbitrary but finite com- binations of addition, multiplication, and exponentiation gates. The inputs to these formulas are restricted to the integral unit 1. In connection with such…
Exchange coupling between magnetic grains is essential for maintaining the stability of stored information in magnetic recording media. Using an atomistic spin model, we have investigated the coupling between neighbouring magnetic grains…
In Index coding there is a single sender with multiple messages and multiple receivers each wanting a different set of messages and knowing a different set of messages a priori. The Index Coding problem is to identify the minimum number of…
A code of the natural numbers is a uniquely-decodable binary code of the natural numbers with non-decreasing codeword lengths, which satisfies Kraft's inequality tightly. We define a natural partial order on the set of codes, and show how…
We give a complete characterization of mixed unit interval graphs, the intersection graphs of closed, open, and half-open unit intervals of the real line. This is a proper superclass of the well known unit interval graphs. Our result solves…
Information transmission in cells occurs quite accurately even when concentration changes are "read" by individual target molecules. In this Letter we study molecule number fluctuations when molecules diffuse and react. We show that, for…
We show that the typical measure preserving transformation is not isomorphic to any interval exchange transformation.
Typically, locally repairable codes (LRCs) and regenerating codes have been studied independently of each other, and it has not been clear how the parameters of one relate to those of the other. In this paper, a novel connection between…
Multiplicity fluctuations of intermediate-mass fragments are studied with the percolation model. It is shown that super-Poissonian fluctuations occur near the percolation transition and that this behavior is associated with the…
