We provide an up-to-date view of the structure of the energy landscape of the low autocorrelation binary sequences problem, a typical representative of the $NP$-hard class. To study the landscape features of interest we use the local optima…

We introduce the concept of a class of graphs, or more generally, relational structures, being locally tree-decomposable. There are numerous examples of locally tree-decomposable classes, among them the class of planar graphs and all…

The capacitated tree cover problem with edge loads is a variant of the tree cover problem, where we are given facility opening costs, edge costs and loads, as well as vertex loads. We try to find a tree cover of minimum cost such that the…

We consider the problem of estimating the conditional probability of a label in time $O(\log n)$, where $n$ is the number of possible labels. We analyze a natural reduction of this problem to a set of binary regression problems organized in…

The Local Learning Coefficient (LLC) is introduced as a novel complexity measure for deep neural networks (DNNs). Recognizing the limitations of traditional complexity measures, the LLC leverages Singular Learning Theory (SLT), which has…

We study the awake complexity of graph problems that belong to the class O-LOCAL, which includes a subset of problems solvable by sequential greedy algorithms, such as $(\Delta+1)$-coloring and maximal independent set. It is known from…

We introduce and study level-planar straight-line drawings with a fixed number $\lambda$ of slopes. For proper level graphs, we give an $O(n \log^2 n / \log \log n)$-time algorithm that either finds such a drawing or determines that no such…

We present proof labeling schemes for graphs with bounded pathwidth that can decide any graph property expressible in monadic second-order (MSO) logic using $O(\log n)$-bit vertex labels. Examples of such properties include planarity,…

Reachability and shortest path problems are NL-complete for general graphs. They are known to be in L for graphs of tree-width 2 [JT07]. However, for graphs of tree-width larger than 2, no bound better than NL is known. In this paper, we…

In this paper, we study the notion of mending, i.e. given a partial solution to a graph problem, we investigate how much effort is needed to turn it into a proper solution. For example, if we have a partial coloring of a graph, how hard is…
