We consider domination analysis of approximation algorithms for the bipartite boolean quadratic programming problem (BBQP) with m+n variables. A closed form formula is developed to compute the average objective function value A of all…
In this paper we study the {\it bilinear assignment problem} (BAP) with size parameters $m$ and $n$, $m\leq n$. BAP is a generalization of the well known quadratic assignment problem and the three dimensional assignment problem and hence…
For general multi-objective optimization problems, we propose a novel performance metric called domination measure to measure the quality of a solution, which can be intuitively interpreted as the size of the portion of the solution space…
We address the problem of \emph{convex optimization with dueling feedback}, where the goal is to minimize a convex function given a weaker form of \emph{dueling} feedback. Each query consists of two points and the dueling feedback returns a…
The generalized quadratic assignment problem (GQAP) is one of the hardest problems to solve in the operations research area. The GQAP addressed in this work is defined as the task of minimizing the assignment and transportation costs of…
We prove a quadratic sparse domination result for general non-integral square functions $S$. That is, we prove an estimate of the form \begin{equation*} \int_{M} (S f)^{2} g \, \mathrm{d}\mu \le c \sum_{P \in \mathcal{S}}…
With the development of quantum computing, the use of quantum algorithms to solve combinatorial optimization problems on quantum computers has become a major research focus. The Quadratic Unconstrained Binary Optimization (QUBO) model…
We consider Upper Domination, the problem of finding the minimal dominating set of maximum cardinality. Very few exact algorithms have been described for solving Upper Domination. In particular, no binary programming formulations for Upper…
We consider the bipartite unconstrained 0-1 quadratic programming problem (BQP01) which is a generalization of the well studied unconstrained 0-1 quadratic programming problem (QP01). BQP01 has numerous applications and the problem is known…
Inverse and bilevel optimization problems play a central role in both theory and applications. These two classes are known to be closely related due to the pioneering work of Dempe and Lohse (2006), and thus have often been discussed…
We consider the {\em Capacitated Domination} problem, which models a service-requirement assignment scenario and is also a generalization of the well-known {\em Dominating Set} problem. In this problem, given a graph with three parameters…
Matching one set of objects to another is a ubiquitous task in machine learning and computer vision that often reduces to some form of the quadratic assignment problem (QAP). The QAP is known to be notoriously hard, both in theory and in…
A quadratic assignment problem (QAP) is a combinatorial optimization problem that belongs to the class of NP-hard ones. So, it is difficult to solve in the polynomial time even for small instances. Research on the QAP has thus focused on…
We consider concurrent games played by two-players on a finite-state graph, where in every round the players simultaneously choose a move, and the current state along with the joint moves determine the successor state. We study a…
The Quadratic Assignment Problem (QAP) is an important discrete optimization instance that encompasses many well-known combinatorial optimization problems, and has applications in a wide range of areas such as logistics and computer vision.…
Quadratic Programming (QP) is the well-studied problem of maximizing over {-1,1} values the quadratic form \sum_{i \ne j} a_{ij} x_i x_j. QP captures many known combinatorial optimization problems, and assuming the unique games conjecture,…
The domination problem and several of its variants (total domination, 2-domination and secure domination) are considered. These problems have various real-world applications, but are NP-hard to solve to provable optimality, making fast…
We investigate the dividing line between classical and quantum computational power in estimating properties of matrix functions. More precisely, we study the computational complexity of two primitive problems: given a function $f$ and a…
We study the Bipartite Unconstrained 0-1 Quadratic Programming Problem (BQP) which is a relaxation of the Unconstrained 0-1 Quadratic Programming Problem (QP). Applications of the BQP include mining discrete patterns from binary data,…
In this paper we study combinatorial and algorithmic resp. complexity questions of upper domination, i.e., the maximum cardinality of a minimal dominating set in a graph. We give a full classification of the related maximisation and…
