We show NP-completeness for several planar variants of the monotone satisfiability problem with bounded variable appearances. With one exception the presented variants have an associated bipartite graph where the vertex degree is bounded by…

Polynomial--time constant--space quantum Turing machines (QTMs) and logarithmic--space probabilistic Turing machines (PTMs) recognize uncountably many languages with bounded error (Say and Yakary\i lmaz 2014, arXiv:1411.7647). In this…

Any satisfiability problem in conjunctive normal form can be solved in polynomial time by reducing it to a 3-sat formulation and transforming this to a Linear Complementarity problem (LCP) which is then solved as a linear program (LP). Any…

Solving linear systems and quadratic programming (QP) problems are both ubiquitous tasks in the engineering and computing fields. Direct methods for solving systems, such as Cholesky, LU, and QR factorizations, exhibit data-independent time…

A set $A$ of integers is called total if there is an algorithm which, given an enumeration of $A$, enumerates the complement of $A$, and called cototal if there is an algorithm which, given an enumeration of the complement of $A$,…

We show that Monotone 3-Sat remains NP-complete if (i) each clause contains exactly three distinct variables, (ii) each clause is unique, i.e., there are no duplicates of the same clause, and (iii), amongst the clauses, each variable…

Polynomial optimization encompasses a broad class of problems in which both the objective function and constraints are polynomial functions of the decision variables. In recent years, a substantial body of research has focused on…

We generalize the main result of arXiv:2505.17960 and show the consistency of the statement ``There are exactly $n$ $Q$-points up to isomorphism" for any finite $n$. Furthermore, we show that the above statement for $n=2$ can alternatively…

The polynomial multiplication problem has attracted considerable attention since the early days of computer algebra, and several algorithms have been designed to achieve the best possible time complexity. More recently, efforts have been…

Inspired by a question of Kra, Moreira, Richter, and Robertson, we prove two new results about infinite polynomial configurations in large subsets of the rational numbers. First, given a finite coloring of $\mathbb{Q}$, we show that there…

A formalism is given to count integer and rational solutions to polynomial equations with rational coefficients. These polynomials $P(x)$ are parameterized by three integers, labeling an elliptic curve. The counting of the rational…

For any positive integers $s$ and $t$, let $Q_{t}^{s}(n)$ denotes the number of partitions of a positive integer $n$ into distinct parts such that no part is congruent to $s$ or $t-s$ modulo $t$. We prove some Ramanujan-type congruences for…

We close three open problems in the separation complexity of valid inequalities for the knapsack polytope. Specifically, we establish that the separation problems for extended cover inequalities, (1,k)-configuration inequalities, and weight…

Previously, all known variants of the Quantum Satisfiability (QSAT) problem, i.e. deciding whether a $k$-local ($k$-body) Hamiltonian is frustration-free, could be classified as being either in $\mathsf{P}$; or complete for $\mathsf{NP}$,…

Let $d$ be a positive integer. For a finite set $X \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$, we define its integer cone as the set $\mathsf{IntCone}(X) := \{ \sum_{x \in X} \lambda_x \cdot x \mid \lambda_x \in \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 0} \} \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$.…

Here we prove that counting maximum matchings in planar, bipartite graphs is #P-complete. This is somewhat surprising in the light that the number of perfect matchings in planar graphs can be computed in polynomial time. We also prove that…

Partitioning a set into similar, if not, identical, parts is a fundamental research topic in combinatorics. The question of partitioning the integers in various ways has been considered throughout history. Given a set $\{x_1, \ldots, x_n\}$…

We study the problem of counting the total number of affine solutions of a system of n binomials in n variables over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. We show that we may decide in polynomial time if that number is…

We prove computational intractability of variants of checkers: (1) deciding whether there is a move that forces the other player to win in one move is NP-complete; (2) checkers where players must always be able to jump on their turn is…

Assuming Lang's conjectured lower bound on the heights of non-torsion points on an elliptic curve, we show that there exists an absolute constant C such that for any elliptic curve E/Q and non-torsion point P in E(Q), there is at most one…
