We consider two basic algorithmic problems concerning tuples of (skew-)symmetric matrices. The first problem asks to decide, given two tuples of (skew-)symmetric matrices $(B_1, \dots, B_m)$ and $(C_1, \dots, C_m)$, whether there exists an…

In a recent paper, Kuperberg described the first subexponential time algorithm for solving the dihedral hidden subgroup problem. The space requirement of his algorithm is super-polynomial. We describe a modified algorithm whose running time…
The Clique Problem has a reduction to the Maximum Flow Network Interdiction Problem. We review the reduction to evolve a polynomial time algorithm for the Clique Problem. A computer program in C language has been written to validate the…
The problem of linking the structure of a finite linear dynamical system with its dynamics is well understood when the phase space is a vector space over a finite field. The cycle structure of such a system can be described by the…

We begin with a review of the notion of a braid group. We then discuss some known solutions to decision problems in braid groups. We then move on to proving new results in braid group algorithmics. We offer a quick solution to the…

We study the design of robust subexponential algorithms for classical connectivity problems on intersection graphs of similarly sized fat objects in $\mathbb{R}^d$. In this setting, each vertex corresponds to a geometric object, and two…

We address the problem of testing weak optimality of a given solution of a given interval linear program. The problem was recently wrongly stated to be polynomially solvable. We disprove it. We show that the problem is NP-hard in general.…
We introduce a Sinkhorn-type algorithm for producing quantum permutation matrices encoding symmetries of graphs. Our algorithm generates square matrices whose entries are orthogonal projections onto one-dimensional subspaces satisfying a…
In the circular restricted three-body problem, low energy transit orbits are revealed by linearizing the governing differential equations about the collinear Lagrange points. This procedure fails when time-periodic perturbations are…

We give an algebraic, determinant-based algorithm for the K-Cycle problem, i.e., the problem of finding a cycle through a set of specified elements. Our approach gives a simple FPT algorithm for the problem, matching the $O^*(2^{|K|})$…
The qubit routing problem, also known as the swap minimization problem, is a (classical) combinatorial optimization problem that arises in the design of compilers of quantum programs. We study the qubit routing problem from the viewpoint of…
In this letter, we revisit the {\em orbit problem}, which was studied in \cite{HAR69,SHA79,KL86}. In \cite{KL86}, Kannan and Lipton proved that this problem is decidable in polynomial time. In this paper, we study the {\em approximate orbit…
Permutation patterns and pattern avoidance have been intensively studied in combinatorics and computer science, going back at least to the seminal work of Knuth on stack-sorting (1968). Perhaps the most natural algorithmic question in this…
The Odd Cycle Transversal problem (OCT) asks whether a given graph can be made bipartite by deleting at most $k$ of its vertices. In a breakthrough result Reed, Smith, and Vetta (Operations Research Letters, 2004) gave a $\BigOh(4^kkmn)$…
We develop a combinatorial approach to the study of semigroups and monoids with finite presentations satisfying small overlap conditions. In contrast to existing geometric methods, our approach facilitates a sequential left-right analysis…
