This paper is concerned with quadrature/cubature rules able to deal with multiple subspaces of functions, in such a way that the integration points are common for all the subspaces, yet the weights are tailored to each specific subspace.…
The Exact Matching (EM) problem asks whether there exists a perfect matching which uses a prescribed number of red edges in a red/blue edge-colored graph. While there exists a randomized polynomial-time algorithm for the problem, only some…
We consider the equal sum partition problem, motivated by distance magic graph labeling: Given $n,k \in \N$ such that $k\, | \sum_{i=1}^ni$ and a partition $p_1+\cdots+p_k=n$, when is it possible to find a partition of the set…
Cross-lingual entity alignment (EA) aims to find the equivalent entities between crosslingual KGs, which is a crucial step for integrating KGs. Recently, many GNN-based EA methods are proposed and show decent performance improvements on…
The currently fastest algorithm for regular expression pattern matching and membership improves the classical O(nm) time algorithm by a factor of about log^{3/2}n. Instead of focussing on general patterns we analyse homogeneous patterns of…
We introduce a spectral embedding algorithm for finding proximal relationships between nodes in signed graphs, where edges can take either positive or negative weights. Adopting a physical perspective, we construct a Hamiltonian which is…
We study the Steiner Tree problem on the intersection graph of most natural families of geometric objects, e.g., disks, squares, polygons, etc. Given a set of $n$ objects in the plane and a subset $T$ of $t$ terminal objects, the task is to…

Local search is a widely-employed strategy for finding good solutions to Traveling Salesman Problem. We analyze the problem of determining whether the weight of a given cycle can be decreased by a popular $k$-opt move. Earlier work has…
In the longest common substring problem, we are given two strings of length $n$ and must find a substring of maximal length that occurs in both strings. It is well known that the problem can be solved in linear time, but the solution is not…
A nonlinear Helmholtz (NLH) equation with high frequencies and corner singularities is discretized by the linear finite element method (FEM). After deriving some wave-number-explicit stability estimates and the singularity decomposition for…
Following recent advances in combining approximation algorithms with fixed-parameter tractability (FPT), we study FPT-time approximation algorithms for minimum-norm $k$-clustering problems, parameterized by the number $k$ of open…
In location-based resource allocation scenarios, the distances between each individual and the facility are desired to be approximately equal, thereby ensuring fairness. Individually fair clustering is often employed to achieve the…
Given $n$ jobs with processing times $p_1,\dotsc,p_n\in\mathbb N$ and $m\le n$ machines with speeds $s_1,\dotsc,s_m\in\mathbb N$ our goal is to allocate the jobs to machines minimizing the makespan. We present an algorithm that solves the…
Let $S$ be a set of $n$ points in the Euclidean plane and general position i.e., no three points are collinear. An \emph{at most $k$-out polygon of $S$} is a simple polygon such that each vertex is a point in $S$ and there are at most $k$…
The Subset Sum problem, which asks whether a set of $n$ integers has a subset summing to a target $t$, is a fundamental NP-complete problem in cryptography and combinatorial optimization. The classical meet-in-the-middle (MIM) algorithm of…
It is well-know that deciding consistency for normal answer set programs (ASP) is NP-complete, thus, as hard as the satisfaction problem for classical propositional logic (SAT). The best algorithms to solve these problems take exponential…
Given $(a_1, \dots, a_n, t) \in \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 0}^{n + 1}$, the Subset Sum problem ($\mathsf{SSUM}$) is to decide whether there exists $S \subseteq [n]$ such that $\sum_{i \in S} a_i = t$. There is a close variant of the $\mathsf{SSUM}$,…
