The natural join and the inner union combine in different ways tables of a relational database. Tropashko [18] observed that these two operations are the meet and join in a class of lattices-called the relational lattices- and proposed…
We study the problem of Imbalance parameterized by the twin cover of a graph. We show that Imbalance is XP parameterized by twin cover, and FPT when parameterized by the twin cover and the size of the largest clique outside the twin cover.…
One of the most intriguing unsolved questions of matroid optimization is the characterization of the existence of $k$ disjoint common bases of two matroids. The significance of the problem is well-illustrated by the long list of conjectures…
Interpreting three-leaf binary trees or {\em rooted triples} as constraints yields an entailment relation, whereby binary trees satisfying some rooted triples must also thus satisfy others, and thence a closure operator, which is known to…
Mutually unbiased bases of a Hilbert space can be constructed by partitioning a unitary error basis. We consider this construction when the unitary error basis is a nice error basis. We show that the number of resulting mutually unbiased…
We complete the complexity classification by degree of minimizing a polynomial over the integer points in a polyhedron in $\mathbb{R}^2$. Previous work shows that optimizing a quadratic polynomial over the integer points in a polyhedral…
Complex patterns generated by the time evolution of a one-dimensional digitalized coupled map lattice are quantitatively analyzed. A method for discerning complexity among the different patterns is implemented. The quantitative results…
We develop a new duality for distributive and implicative meet semi-lattices. For distributive meet semi-lattices our duality generalizes Priestley's duality for distributive lattices and provides an improvement of Celani's duality. Our…
In this paper, we provide an alternative description of the duality result for distributive lattices and coherent locales using ultraposet. In particular, we show that there are fully faithful embeddings from the opposite of the category of…
We develop a strong connection between maximally commuting bases of orthogonal unitary matrices and mutually unbiased bases. A necessary condition of the existence of mutually unbiased bases for any finite dimension is obtained. Then a…
Polynomial optimization problems over binary variables can be expressed as integer programs using a linearization with extra monomials in addition to those arising in the given polynomial. We characterize when such a linearization yields an…
A half-integral polygon with quasi-period collapse behaves similarly to a lattice polygon in the sense that the number of lattice points in its integer dilates can be calculated as values of a polynomial, its Ehrhart polynomial. As a main…
In this paper, using compute-and-forward as an example, we provide an overview of constructions of lattices from codes that possess the right algebraic structures for harnessing interference. This includes Construction A, Construction D,…
It is $\mathsf{NP}$-hard to determine the minimum number of branching vertices needed in a single-source distance-preserving subgraph of an undirected graph. We show that this problem can be solved in polynomial time if the input graph is…
Let $G=(V,E)$ be a matching-covered graph, denote by $P$ its perfect matching polytope, and by $L$ the integer lattice generated by the integral points in $P$. In this paper, we give short, polyhedral proofs for two difficult results…
While persistent homology has taken strides towards becoming a wide-spread tool for data analysis, multidimensional persistence has proven more difficult to apply. One reason is the serious drawback of no longer having a concise and…
Problems from metric graph theory like Metric Dimension, Geodetic Set, and Strong Metric Dimension have recently had a strong impact in parameterized complexity by being the first known problems in NP to admit double-exponential lower…
A new characterization is given to describe implication bases of a closure system in terms of the system's quasi-closed sets. Using this characterization, it is possible to show that groups of implications corresponding to distinct…
If L is an order polynomially complete lattice, (that is: every monotone function from L^n to L is induced by a lattice-theoretic polynomial) then the cardinality of L is a strongly inaccessible cardinal. In particular, the existence of…
We ask whether a stationary lattice in dimension $d$ whose points are shifted by identically distributed but possibly dependent perturbations remains hyperuniform. When $d = 1$ or $2$, we show that it is the case when the perturbations have…
