Implicit Computational Complexity makes two aspects implicit, by manipulating programming languages rather than models of com-putation, and by internalizing the bounds rather than using external measure. We survey how automata theory…
In this paper, we construct two generalized cyclotomic binary sequences of period $2p^{m}$ based on the generalized cyclotomy and compute their linear complexity, showing that they are of high linear complexity when $m\geq 2$.
We compute the degree complexity of a family of birational mappings of the plane with high order singularities.
By complexity of a finite graph we mean the number of spanning trees in the graph. The aim of the present paper is to give a new approach for counting complexity $\tau(n)$ of cyclic $n$-fold coverings of a graph. We give an explicit…
We consider the $k$-error linear complexity of binary sequences derived from Eluer quotients modulo $2p$ ($p>3$ is an odd prime), recently introduced by J. Zhang and C. Zhao. We adopt certain decimal sequences to determine the values of…
Cellular automata are discrete dynamical systems that consist of patterns of symbols on a grid, which change according to a locally determined transition rule. In this paper, we will consider cellular automata that arise from polynomial…
The worst-case complexity of group-theoretic algorithms has been studied for a long time. Generic-case complexity, or complexity on random inputs, was introduced and studied relatively recently. In this paper, we address the average-case…
We introduce a new notion of complexity of functions and we show that it has the following properties: (i) it governs a PAC Bayes-like generalization bound, (ii) for neural networks it relates to natural notions of complexity of functions…
The main purpose of percolation theory is to model phase transitions in a variety of random systems, which is highly valuable in fields related to materials physics, biology, or otherwise unrelated areas like oil extraction or even quantum…
The arithmetic complexity counts the number of algebraically independent entries in the periodic continued fraction $\theta=[b_1,\dots, b_N, \overline{a_1,\dots,a_k}]$. If $\mathscr{A}_{\theta}$ is a noncommutative torus corresponding to…
This article is a short introduction to generic case complexity, which is a recently developed way of measuring the difficulty of a computational problem while ignoring atypical behavior on a small set of inputs. Generic case complexity…
Timed automata (TAs) are an extension of finite automata that can measure and react to the passage of time, providing the ability to handle real-time constraints using clocks. In 2009, Franck Cassez showed that the timed opacity problem,…
Many multi-variate time series obtained in the natural sciences and engineering possess a repetitive behavior, as for instance state-space trajectories of industrial machines in discrete automation. Recovering the times of recurrence from…
We present a randomized algorithm that computes a constant approximation of a graph's arboricity, using $\tilde{O}(n/\lambda)$ queries to adjacency lists and in the same time bound. Here, $n$ and $\lambda$ denote the number of nodes and the…
We investigate the $k$-error linear complexity of pseudorandom binary sequences of period $p^{\mathfrak{r}}$ derived from the Euler quotients modulo $p^{\mathfrak{r}-1}$, a power of an odd prime $p$ for $\mathfrak{r}\geq 2$. When…
Algorithms which learn environments represented by automata in the past have had complexity scaling with the number of states in the automaton, which can be exponentially large even for automata recognizing regular expressions with a small…

Hofstadter's Q-sequence remains an enigma fifty years after its introduction. Initially, the terms of the sequence increase monotonically by 0 or 1 at a time. But, Q(12)=8 while Q(11)=6, and monotonicity fails shortly thereafter. In this…
The linear complexity and the $k$-error linear complexity of a sequence have been used as important security measures for key stream sequence strength in linear feedback shift register design. By using the sieve method of combinatorics, the…
