We show that for every fixed non-negative integer k there is a quadratic time algorithm that decides whether a given graph has crossing number at most k and, if this is the case, computes a drawing of the graph in the plane with at most k…
This paper investigated the problem of embedding a simple Hamiltonian Cycle with n vertices on n points inside a simple polygon. This problem seeks to embed a straight-line cycle (without bends), which does not intersect either itself or…
In this paper we determine the complexity of a broad class of problems that extends the temporal constraint satisfaction problems. To be more precise we study the problems Poset-SAT($\Phi$), where $\Phi$ is a given set of quantifier-free…
In recent years much effort has been concentrated towards achieving polynomial time lower bounds on algorithms for solving various well-known problems. A useful technique for showing such lower bounds is to prove them conditionally based on…
The polylogarithmic time hierarchy structures sub-linear time complexity. In recent work it was shown that all classes $\tilde{\Sigma}_{m}^{\mathit{plog}}$ or $\tilde{\Pi}_{m}^{\mathit{plog}}$ ($m \in \mathbb{N}$) in this hierarchy can be…
Girard's Light linear logic (LLL) characterized polynomial time in the proof-as-program paradigm with a bound on cut elimination. This logic relied on a stratification principle and a "one-door" principle which were generalized later…
We describe how geometrical methods can be applied to a system with explicitly time-dependent second-class constraints so as to cast it in Hamiltonian form on its physical phase space. Examples of particular interest are systems which…
We give a characterization of deterministic polynomial time computation based on an algebraic structure called the resolution semiring, whose elements can be understood as logic programs or sets of rewriting rules over first-order terms.…
This paper presents a novel parallel-in-time algorithm able to compute time-periodic solutions of problems where the period is not given. Exploiting the idea of the multiple shooting method, the proposed approach calculates the initial…
In this paper, we present a geometric approach for computing the controlled invariant set of a continuous-time control system. While the problem is well studied for in the ellipsoidal case, this family is quite conservative for constrained…
We study period integrals of CY hypersurfaces in a partial flag variety. We construct a holonomic system of differential equations which govern the period integrals. By means of representation theory, a set of generators of the system can…
A semi-algebraic set is a subset of $\mathbb{R}^n$ defined by a finite collection of polynomial equations and inequalities. In this paper, we investigate the problem of determining whether two points in such a set belong to the same…
It is well-known (cf. K.-Pudl\'ak 1989) that a polynomial time algorithm finding tautologies hard for a propositional proof system $P$ exists iff $P$ is not optimal. Such an algorithm takes $1^{(k)}$ and outputs a tautology $\tau_k$ of size…
There is an incompatibility between the symmetries of causal structure in relativity theory and the signaling abilities of probabilistic devices with inputs and outputs: while time-reversal in relativity will not introduce the ability to…
Article describes a class of efficient algorithms for 3SAT and their generalizations on SAT.
In sequential circuits, the current output may depend on both past and current inputs. However, certain kinds of sequential circuits do not refer to all of the past inputs to generate the current output; they only refer to a subset of past…
The aim of this paper is to present a symbolic computational algorithm that will allow us to deal with the feedback stabilization problem for continuous nonlinear polynomial systems. The overall approach is based on a methodology that…
Stochastic orders are very useful tool to compare the lifetimes of two coherent systems. We show that, under certain conditions, a coherent system of used components performs better (worse) than a used coherent system with respect to…
The constraint reaction force of ideal nonholonomic constraints in time-dependent mechanics on a configuration bundle $Q\to R$ is obtained. Using the vertical extension of Hamiltonian formalism to the vertical tangent bundle $VQ$ of $Q\to…
We present a polynomial-time algorithm that determines, given some choice rule, whether there exists an obviously strategy-proof mechanism for that choice rule.
