In the Equal-Subset-Sum problem, we are given a set $S$ of $n$ integers and the problem is to decide if there exist two disjoint nonempty subsets $A,B \subseteq S$, whose elements sum up to the same value. The problem is NP-complete. The…

We present an algorithm to invert the Euler function $\phi(m)$. The algorithm, for a given $n \geq 1$, in polynomial time ``on average'', finds the set $\Psi(n)$ of all solutions $m$ to $\phi(m) = n$. In fact, in the worst case, $\Psi(n)$…

We present an algorithm to solve a system of diagonal polynomial equations over finite fields when the number of variables is greater than some fixed polynomial of the number of equations whose degree depends only on the degree of the…

The sufficient conditions for solvability of a linear Diophantine equation $\sum_{i=1}^{n}a_ix_i=b$ (with $a_1,a_2,...,a_n\in \mathbb{N}$) in non-negative integers $x_1,x_2,...,x_n$ are given. The explicit formulas are given for Frobenius…

We consider a large family of problems in which an ordering (or, more precisely, a chain of subsets) of a finite set must be chosen to minimize some weighted sum of costs. This family includes variations of Min Sum Set Cover (MSSC), several…

Bellman's algorithm for Subset Sum is one of the earliest and simplest examples of dynamic programming, dating back to 1957. For a given set of $n$ integers $X$ and a target $t$, it computes the set of subset sums $\mathcal S(X, t)$ (i.e.,…

In the classical Subset Sum problem we are given a set $X$ and a target $t$, and the task is to decide whether there exists a subset of $X$ which sums to $t$. A recent line of research has resulted in $\tilde{O}(t)$-time algorithms, which…
