The Matou\v{s}ek LP-type problems were used by Matou\v{s}ek to show that the Sharir-Welzl algorithm may require at least subexponential time. Later, G\"artner translated this result into the language of Unique Sink Orientations (USOs) and…
A unique sink orientation (USO) is an orientation of the edges of a hypercube such that each face has a unique sink. Many optimization problems like linear programs reduce to USOs, in the sense that each vertex corresponds to a possible…
A unique sink orientation (USO) is an orientation of the hypercube graph with the property that every face has a unique sink. A number of well-studied problems reduce in strongly polynomial time to finding the global sink of a USO; most…
A unique sink orientation (USO) is an orientation of the $n$-dimensional hypercube graph such that every non-empty face contains a unique sink. Schurr showed that given any $n$-dimensional USO and any dimension $i$, the set of edges $E_i$…
Unique Sink Orientations (USOs) of cubes can be used to capture the combinatorial structure of many essential algebraic and geometric problems. For various structural and algorithmic questions, including enumeration of USOs and algorithm…
Unique Sink Orientations (USOs) are an appealing abstraction of several major optimization problems of applied mathematics such as for instance Linear Programming (LP), Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) or 2-player Turn Based Stochastic…
A unique sink orientation (USO) is an orientation of the $n$-dimensional cube graph ($n$-cube) such that every face (subcube) has a unique sink. The number of unique sink orientations is $n^{\Theta(2^n)}$. If a cube orientation is not a…
An orientation of a grid is called unique sink orientation (USO) if each of its nonempty subgrids has a unique sink. Particularly, the original grid itself has a unique global sink. In this work we investigate the problem of how to find the…
Unique-sink orientations (USOs) are an abstract class of orientations of the n-cube graph. We consider some classes of USOs that are of interest in connection with the linear complementarity problem. We summarise old and show new lower and…
Klaus showed that the Oriented Matroid Complementarity Problem (OMCP) can be solved by a reduction to the problem of sink-finding in a unique sink orientation (USO) if the input is promised to be given by a non-degenerate extension of a…
We consider quantum algorithms for the unique sink orientation problem on cubes. This problem is widely considered to be of intermediate computational complexity. This is because there no known polynomial algorithm (classical or quantum)…
A unique sink orientation (USO) is an orientation of the edges of a polytope in which every face contains a unique sink. For a product of simplices $\Delta_{m-1} \times \Delta_{n-1}$, Felsner, G\"artner and Tschirschnitz (2005) characterize…
In eXplainable Constraint Solving (XCS), it is common to extract a Minimal Unsatisfiable Subset (MUS) from a set of unsatisfiable constraints. This helps explain to a user why a constraint specification does not admit a solution. Finding…
The complexity classes Unique End of Potential Line (UEOPL) and its promise version PUEOPL were introduced in 2018 by Fearnly et al. UEOPL captures search problems where the instances are promised to have a unique solution. UEOPL captures…
We provide polynomial-time reductions between three search problems from three distinct areas: the P-matrix linear complementarity problem (P-LCP), finding the sink of a unique sink orientation (USO), and a variant of the $\alpha$-Ham…
In the paper we define three new complexity classes for Turing Machine undecidable problems inspired by the famous Cook/Levin's NP-complete complexity class for intractable problems. These are U-complete (Universal complete), D-complete…
Zonotopes are widely used for over-approximating forward reachable sets of uncertain linear systems for verification purposes. In this paper, we use zonotopes to achieve more scalable algorithms that under-approximate backward reachable…
We study fundamental reachability problems on pseudo-orbits of linear dynamical systems. Pseudo-orbits can be viewed as a model of computation with limited precision and pseudo-reachability can be thought of as a robust version of classical…
The omega-regular separability problem for B\"uchi VASS coverability languages has recently been shown to be decidable, but with an EXPSPACE lower and a non-primitive recursive upper bound -- the exact complexity remained open. We close…
This study focuses on reachability problems in differential games. An improved level set method for computing reachable tubes is proposed in this paper. The reachable tube is described as a sublevel set of a value function, which is the…
