We improve the running time of the general algorithmic technique known as Baker's approach (1994) on H-minor-free graphs from O(n^{f(|H|)}) to O(f(|H|) n^{O(1)}). The numerous applications include e.g. a 2-approximation for coloring and…

We show that the $(degree+1)$-list coloring problem can be solved deterministically in $O(D \cdot \log n \cdot\log^2\Delta)$ rounds in the \CONGEST model, where $D$ is the diameter of the graph, $n$ the number of nodes, and $\Delta$ the…

The observed frequency of the longest proper prefix, the longest proper suffix, and the longest infix of a word $w$ in a given sequence $x$ can be used for classifying $w$ as avoided or overabundant. The definitions used for the expectation…

Speculative decoding is widely adopted to reduce latency in large language model (LLM) inference by leveraging smaller draft models capable of handling diverse user tasks. However, emerging AI applications, such as LLM-based agents, present…
