We consider the problem of finding a subgraph of a given graph which minimizes the sum of given functions at vertices evaluated at their subgraph degrees. While the problem is NP-hard already when all functions are the same, we show that it…

We call a function $f$ in $C(X)$ to be hard-bounded if $f$ is bounded on every hard subset, a special kind of closed subset, of $X$. We call a subset $T$ of $X$ to be $S$-embedded if every hard-bounded continuous function of $T$ can be…

In previous studies, several methods have been developed to synthesise Petri nets from labelled transition systems (LTS), often with structural constraints on the net and on the LTS. In this paper, we focus on Weighted Marked Graphs (WMGs)…

Let $T$ be an absolutely continuous polynomially bounded operator, and let $\theta$ be a singular inner function. It is shown that if $\theta(T)$ is invertible and some additional conditions are fulfilled, then $T$ has nontrivial…

Let f be an arbitrary positive integer valued function. The goal of this note is to show that one can construct a finitely generated group in which the discrete log problem is polynomially equivalent to computing the function f. In…

We consider the convex hull $P_{\varphi}(G)$ of all satisfying assignments of a given MSO formula $\varphi$ on a given graph $G$. We show that there exists an extended formulation of the polytope $P_{\varphi}(G)$ that can be described by…

For any polynomial f with complex coefficients we find a remarkable subset of poles of the motivic zeta function. It is combinatorially determined by any log resolution and it admits an intrinsic interpretation in terms of contact loci of…

We prove that the word problem of a finitely generated group $G$ is in NP (solvable in polynomial time by a non-deterministic Turing machine) if and only if this group is a subgroup of a finitely presented group $H$ with polynomial…

In this paper, we introduce and investigate two new subclasses of analytic functions in the open unit disk in the complex plane. Several interesting properties of the functions belonging to these classes are examined. Here, sufficient, and…

Inspired by the framework of operational methods and based on the generating functions of Legendre-Gould Hopper polynomials and Sheffer sequences, we discuss certain new mixed type polynomials and their important properties. We show that…

Freyd's generating hypothesis for the stable module category of a non-trivial finite group G is the statement that a map between finitely generated kG-modules that belongs to the thick subcategory generated by k factors through a projective…

We study the problem of synthesizing polyhedral Lyapunov functions for hybrid linear systems. Such functions are defined as convex piecewise linear functions, with a finite number of pieces. We first prove that deciding whether there exists…

In this paper, we generalize Bernoulli-Goss polynomials, and give a criterion on the divisibility of zeta functions of cyclotomic function fields. As an application of our criterion, for a given polynomial $f(u)$, we prove that there are…

We study rigidity/flexibility properties of global solutions to the thin obstacle problem. For solutions with bounded positive sets, we give a classification in terms of their expansions at infinity. For solutions with bounded contact sets,…

Let $\mathcal{G}$ be a minor-closed graph class. We say that a graph $G$ is a $k$-apex of $\mathcal{G}$ if $G$ contains a set $S$ of at most $k$ vertices such that $G\setminus S$ belongs to $\mathcal{G}.$ We denote by $\mathcal{A}_k…

In this note, we initiate the study of generating functions for tight cylindric partitions. For general (i.e., $r$-rowed for $r\geq 2$) tight cylindric partitions, we provide analogs of the Corteel--Welsh functional equations. We prove…

The complexity of graph homomorphisms has been a subject of intense study [11, 12, 4, 42, 21, 17, 6, 20]. The partition function $Z_{\mathbf A}(\cdot)$ of graph homomorphism is defined by a symmetric matrix $\mathbf A$ over $\mathbb C$. We…

We study the computational complexity of constrained nonnegative Gram feasibility. Given a partially specified symmetric matrix together with affine relations among selected entries, the problem asks whether there exists a nonnegative…

The power graph $\mathcal{P}(G)$ of a finite group $G$ is the graph whose vertex set is $G$, and two elements in $G$ are adjacent if one of them is a power of the other. The purpose of this paper is twofold. First, we find the complexity of…

The determination of the computational complexity of multi-agent pathfinding on directed graphs (diMAPF) has been an open research problem for many years. While diMAPF has been shown to be polynomial for some special cases, only recently,…
