We show that the uniform Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP) parameterized by the size of the solution is in W[1] (the problem is W[1]-hard and it is easy to place it in W[3]). Given a single "free" element of the domain, denoted by $0$,…
We study structural aspects of randomized parameterized computation. We introduce a new class ${\sf W[P]}$-${\sf PFPT}$ as a natural parameterized analogue of ${\sf PP}$. Our definition uses the machine based characterization of the…
We consider networks of processes that all execute the same finite-state protocol and communicate via a rendez-vous mechanism. When a process requests a rendez-vous, another process can respond to it and they both change their control…
In 2020, we initiated a systematic study of graph classes in which the treewidth can only be large due to the presence of a large clique, which we call $(\mathrm{tw},\omega)$-bounded. While $(\mathrm{tw},\omega)$-bounded graph classes are…
We study the complexity of the parameterised counting constraint satisfaction problem: given a set of constraints over a set of variables and a positive integer $k$, how many ways are there to assign $k$ variables to 1 (and the others to 0)…
The task of learning to map an input set onto a permuted sequence of its elements is challenging for neural networks. Set-to-sequence problems occur in natural language processing, computer vision and structure prediction, where…
The field of kernelization studies polynomial-time preprocessing routines for hard problems in the framework of parameterized complexity. Although a framework for proving kernelization lower bounds has been discovered in 2008 and…
In the Determinant Maximization problem, given an $n\times n$ positive semi-definite matrix $\bf{A}$ in $\mathbb{Q}^{n\times n}$ and an integer $k$, we are required to find a $k\times k$ principal submatrix of $\bf{A}$ having the maximum…
A clique coloring of a graph is an assignment of colors to its vertices such that no maximal clique is monochromatic. We initiate the study of structural parameterizations of the Clique Coloring problem which asks whether a given graph has…
As fragments of first-order logic, Description logics (DLs) do not provide nonmonotonic features such as defeasible inheritance and default rules. Since many applications would benefit from the availability of such features, several…
In this paper we study the complexity of the problems: given a loop, described by linear constraints over a finite set of variables, is there a linear or lexicographical-linear ranking function for this loop? While existence of such…
Traditionally, reconfiguration problems ask the question whether a given solution of an optimization problem can be transformed to a target solution in a sequence of small steps that preserve feasibility of the intermediate solutions. In…
In this paper we study the parameterized complexity of two well-known permutation group problems which are NP-complete. 1. Given a permutation group G=<S>, subgroup of $S_n$, and a parameter $k$, find a permutation $\pi$ in G such that…
The propositional planning problem is a notoriously difficult computational problem, which remains hard even under strong syntactical and structural restrictions. Given its difficulty it becomes natural to study planning in the context of…
We study the parameterized complexity of the following fundamental geometric problems with respect to the dimension $d$: i) Given $n$ points in $\Rd$, compute their minimum enclosing cylinder. ii) Given two $n$-point sets in $\Rd$, decide…
Recent research has highlighted the importance of dataset size in scaling language models. However, large language models (LLMs) are notoriously token-hungry during pre-training, and high-quality text data on the web is approaching its…
In this paper, we introduce a new framework for parameterised counting in logspace, inspired by the parameterised space bounded models developed by Elberfeld, Stockhusen and Tantau (IPEC 2013, Algorithmica 2015). They defined the operators…
Longest Run Subsequence is a problem introduced recently in the context of the scaffolding phase of genome assembly (Schrinner et al., WABI 2020). The problem asks for a maximum length subsequence of a given string that contains at most one…
In the Independent Set Reconfiguration problem under the Token Addition/Removal rule, given a graph $G$ and two independent sets $I$ and $J$ of $G$, we want to transform $I$ into $J$ by adding and removing vertices, such that all the sets…
Dependence logics are a modern family of logics of independence and dependence which mimic notions of database theory. In this paper, we aim to initiate the study of enumeration complexity in the field of dependence logics and thereby get a…
