We study the problem of ranking with submodular valuations. An instance of this problem consists of a ground set $[m]$, and a collection of $n$ monotone submodular set functions $f^1, \ldots, f^n$, where each $f^i: 2^{[m]} \to R_+$. An…

We compare the complexity of the search and decision problems for the complexity class S2P. While Cai (2007) showed that the decision problem is contained in ZPP^NP, we show that the search problem is equivalent to TFNP^NP, the class of…

In [Mulmuley, 1987], Mulmuley gave an algorithm reducing the computation of the matrix rank function to that of determinants, of which the proof for the verification is elementary. In this article, we formalize this argument in the bounded…

In this paper we consider polynomial representability of functions defined over $Z_{p^n}$, where $p$ is a prime and $n$ is a positive integer. Our aim is to provide an algorithmic characterization that (i) answers the decision problem: to…

The general setting of this work is the constraint-based synthesis of termination arguments. We consider a restricted class of programs called lasso programs. The termination argument for a lasso program is a pair of a ranking function and…

We consider logic-based argumentation in which an argument is a pair (Fi,al), where the support Fi is a minimal consistent set of formulae taken from a given knowledge base (usually denoted by De) that entails the claim al (a formula). We…

We define the supermodular rank of a function on a lattice. This is the smallest number of terms needed to decompose it into a sum of supermodular functions. The supermodular summands are defined with respect to different partial orders. We…

A well-known method for completing low-rank matrices based on convex optimization has been established by Cand{\`e}s and Recht. Although theoretically complete, the method may not entirely solve the low-rank matrix completion problem. This…
