A binary matrix has the Consecutive Ones Property (C1P) if its columns can be ordered in such a way that all 1's on each row are consecutive. A Minimal Conflicting Set is a set of rows that does not have the C1P, but every proper subset has…
Motivated by problems of comparative genomics and paleogenomics, in [Chauve et al., 2009], the authors introduced the Gapped Consecutive-Ones Property Problem (k,delta)-C1P: given a binary matrix M and two integers k and delta, can the…
A binary matrix satisfies the consecutive ones property (COP) if its columns can be permuted such that the ones in each row of the resulting matrix are consecutive. Equivalently, a family of sets F = {Q_1,..,Q_m}, where Q_i is subset of R…
A binary matrix has the Consecutive Ones Property (C1P) if its columns can be ordered in such a way that all 1s on each row are consecutive. These matrices are used for DNA physical mapping and ancestral genome reconstruction in…
The Consecutive-Ones Property (C1P) is a classical concept in discrete mathematics that has been used in several genomics applications, from physical mapping of contemporary genomes to the assembly of ancient genomes. A common issue in…
A $(0,1)$-matrix has the consecutive-ones property (C1P) if its columns can be permuted to make the $1$'s in each row appear consecutively. This property was characterised in terms of forbidden submatrices by Tucker in 1972. Several graph…
Let C be a finite set of $N elements and R = {R_1,R_2, ..,R_m} a family of M subsets of C. The family R verifies the consecutive ones property if there exists a permutation P of C such that each R_i in R is an interval of P. There already…
A $(0,1)$-matrix has the Consecutive Ones Property (C1P) for the rows if there is a permutation of its columns such that the ones in each row appear consecutively. We say a $(0, 1)$-matrix is nested if it has the consecutive ones property…
A binary matrix has the consecutive ones property (C1P) if it is possible to order the columns so that all 1s are consecutive in every row. In [McConnell, SODA 2004 768-777] the notion of incompatibility graph of a binary matrix was…
A binary matrix $M$ has the Consecutive Ones Property (COP) if there exists a permutation of columns that arranges the ones consecutively in all the rows. Given a matrix, the $d$-COS-R problem is to determine if there exists a set of at…
We investigate $(0,1)$-matrices that are {\em convex}, which means that the ones are consecutive in every row and column. These matrices occur in discrete tomography. The notion of ranked essential sets, known for permutation matrices, is…
It is shown by Karp reduction that deciding the singularity of $(2^n - 1) \times (2^n - 1)$ sparse circulant matrices (SC problem) is NP-complete. We can write them only implicitly, by indicating values of the $2 + n(n + 1)/2$ eventually…
The Consecutive Ones Property is an important notion for binary matrices, both from a theoretical and applied point of view. Tucker gave in 1972 a characterization of matrices that do not satisfy the Consecutive Ones Property in terms of…
We investigate the existence of heavy columns in binary matrices with distinct rows. A column of an m x n binary matrix is called heavy if the number of ones in it is at least m/2. We introduce two recursive algorithms, A1 and A2, that…
A graph class $\mathscr{C}$ is called monadically stable if one cannot interpret, in first-order logic, arbitrary large linear orders in colored graphs from $\mathscr{C}$. We prove that the model checking problem for first-order logic is…
Sand Pile Models are discrete dynamical systems emphasizing the phenomenon of Self-Organized Criticality. From a configuration composed of a finite number of stacked grains, we apply on every possible positions (in parallel) two grain…
A $0$-$1$ matrix $M$ is saturating for a $0$-$1$ matrix $P$ if $M$ does not contain a submatrix that can be turned into $P$ by changing some $1$ entries to $0$ entries, and changing an arbitrary $0$ to $1$ in $M$ introduces such a submatrix…
Let $M$ be a real $r\times c$ matrix and let $k$ be a positive integer. In the column subset selection problem (CSSP), we need to minimize the quantity $\|M-SA\|$, where $A$ can be an arbitrary $k\times c$ matrix, and $S$ runs over all…
Let $M$ be a $n\times m$ $(0,1)$-matrix. We define the $s$-binary rank, $br_s(M)$, of $M$ to be the minimal integer $d$ such that there are $d$ monochromatic rectangles that cover all the $1$-entries in the matrix, and each $1$-entry is…
We prove decidability results on the existence of constant subsequences of uniformly recurrent morphic sequences along arithmetic progressions. We use spectral properties of the subshifts they generate to give a first algorithm deciding…
