A parametric approach is developed to the method of S-tree diagrams and its generalization for investigation of the hierarchical substructure of $N$-body nonlinearly interacting systems (e.g., clusters of galaxies). The introduction of a…

Given a CW-complex A we define an `A-shaped' homology theory which behaves nicely towards A-homotopy groups allowing the generalization of many classical results. We also develop a relative version of the Federer spectral sequence for…

A k-dimensional hypertree X is a k-dimensional complex on n vertices with a full (k-1)-dimensional skeleton and \binom{n-1}{k} facets such that H_k(X;Q)=0. Here we introduce the following family of simplicial complexes. Let n,k be integers…

We discuss a structural approach to subset-sum problems in additive combinatorics. The core of this approach are Freiman-type structural theorems, many of which will be presented through the paper. These results have applications in various…

We introduce an object that has obvious similarity to the classical one - the algebra of supersymmetric polynomials. Despite the similarity, the known structure theorems on supersymmetric polynomials do not help in the study of the new…

Estimation is the computational task of recovering a hidden parameter $x$ associated with a distribution $D_x$, given a measurement $y$ sampled from the distribution. High dimensional estimation problems arise naturally in statistics,…

We describe the parametric behavior of the series solutions of an A-hypergeometric system. More precisely, we construct explicit stratifications of the parameter space such that, on each stratum, the series solutions of the system are…

Reducing the conditions under which a given set satisfies the stipulations of the subset sum proposition to a set of linear relationships, the question of whether a set satisfies subset sum may be answered in a polynomial number of steps by…

For a sequence $S$ of terms from an abelian group $G$ of length $|S|$, let $\Sigma_n(S)$ denote the set of all elements that can be represented as the sum of terms in some $n$-term subsequence of $S$. When the subsum set is very small,…

Let $A$ and $H$ be nonempty finite sets of integers and positive integers, respectively. The generalized $H$-fold sumset, denoted by $H^{(r)}A$, is the union of the sumsets $h^{(r)}A$ for $h\in H$ where, the sumset $h^{(r)}A$ is the set of…

Within the framework of generalized combinatorial approach, the complexity is determined for infinite set of self-similar hierarchical ensembles. This complexity is shown to increase with strengthening of the hierarchy coupling to the…

The polynomial hierarchy is a grading of problems by difficulty, including P, NP and coNP as the best known classes. The promise polynomial hierarchy is similar, but extended to include promise problems. It turns out that the promise…

A given subset $A$ of natural numbers is said to be complete if every element of $\N$ is the sum of distinct terms taken from $A$. This topic is strongly connected to the knapsack problem which is known to be NP complete. The main goal of…

In the field of algorithmic analysis, one of the more well-known exercises is the subset sum problem. That is, given a set of integers, determine whether one or more integers in the set can sum to a target value. Aside from the brute-force…
