The {\it matrix-chain multiplication} problem is a classic problem that is widely taught to illustrate dynamic programming. The textbook solution runs in $\theta(n^3)$ time. However, there is a complex $O(n \log n)$-time method \cite{HU82},…

We show that any quantum algorithm deciding whether an input function $f$ from $[n]$ to $[n]$ is 2-to-1 or almost 2-to-1 requires $\Theta(n)$ queries to $f$. The same lower bound holds for determining whether or not a function $f$ from…

Inspired by a question asked on the list {\tt mathfun}, we revisit {\em Kempner-like series}, i.e., harmonic sums $\sum' 1/n$ where the integers $n$ in the summation have ``restricted'' digits. First we give a short proof that $\lim_{k \to…
