We consider optimal route planning when the objective function is a general nonlinear and non-monotonic function. Such an objective models user behavior more accurately, for example, when a user is risk-averse, or the utility function needs…
This article is concerned with an extension of univariate Chebyshev polynomials of the first kind to the multivariate setting, where one chases best approximants to specific monomials by polynomials of lower degree relative to the uniform…
The paper investigates the computational problem of predicting RNA secondary structures. The general belief is that allowing pseudoknots makes the problem hard. Existing polynomial-time algorithms are heuristic algorithms with no…

This paper is about minimum cost constrained selection of inputs and outputs for generic arbitrary pole placement. The input-output set is constrained in the sense that the set of states that each input can influence and the set of states…
In preference modelling, it is essential to determine the number of questions and their arrangements to ask from the decision maker. We focus on incomplete pairwise comparison matrices, and provide the optimal filling in patterns, which…
Link equivalence up to isotopy in a 3-space is the problem that lies at the root of knot theory, and is important in 3-dimensional topology and geometry. We consider its restriction to alternating links, given by two alternating diagrams…

A new Chebyshev-type family of stabilized explicit methods for solving mildly stiff ODEs is presented. Besides conventional conditions of order and stability we impose an additional restriction on the methods: their stability function must…
For a function that is analytic on and around an interval, Chebyshev polynomial interpolation provides spectral convergence. However, if the function has a singularity close to the interval, the rate of convergence is near one. In these…
We develop a simple two-step algorithm for enclosing Chebyshev expansions whose cost is linear in terms of the polynomial degree. The algorithm first transforms the expansion from Chebyshev to the Laurent basis and then applies the interval…

Certain Petrov-Galerkin schemes are inherently stable formulations of variational problems on a given mesh. This stability is primarily obtained by computing an optimal test basis for a given approximation space. Furthermore, these…
