Cluster deletion is an NP-hard graph clustering objective with applications in computational biology and social network analysis, where the goal is to delete a minimum number of edges to partition a graph into cliques. We first provide a…

A recursion formula is derived which allows to evaluate invariant integrals over the orthogonal group O(N), where the integrand is an arbitrary finite monomial in the matrix elements of the group. The value of such an integral is…

In this paper we study polycubes: orthogonal polyhedra with axis-aligned quadrilateral faces. We present a complete characterization of polycubes of any genus based on their dual structure: a collection of oriented loops which run in each…

We consider so-called squaring the square-puzzles where a given square (or rectangle) should be dissected into smaller squares. For a specific instance of such problems we demonstrate that a mathematically rigorous solution can be quite…

A clustering algorithm partitions a set of data points into smaller sets (clusters) such that each subset is more tightly packed than the whole. Many approaches to clustering translate the vector data into a graph with edges reflecting a…

Clustering is an unsupervised learning problem that aims to partition unlabelled data points into groups with similar features. Traditional clustering algorithms provide limited insight into the groups they find as their main focus is…

Explicit divergences and counterterms do not appear in the differential renormalization method, but they are concealed in the neglected surface terms in the formal partial integration procedure used. A systematic real space cutoff procedure…

We analyze split cuts from the perspective of cut generating functions via geometric lifting. We show that $\alpha$-cuts, a natural higher-dimensional generalization of the $k$-cuts of Cornu\'{e}jols et al., gives all the split cuts for the…

It is shown that every orthogonal terrain, i.e., an orthogonal (right-angled) polyhedron based on a rectangle that meets every vertical line in a segment, has a grid unfolding: its surface may be unfolded to a single non-overlapping piece…

An unfolding of a polyhedron is produced by cutting the surface and flattening to a single, connected, planar piece without overlap (except possibly at boundary points). It is a long unsolved problem to determine whether every polyhedron…

We define cut-and-paste, a construction which, given a quadriculated disk obtains a disjoint union of quadriculated disks of smaller total area. We provide two examples of the use of this procedure as a recursive step. Tilings of a disk…
