The N-queens problem is to find the position of N queens on an N by N chess board such that no queens attack each other. The excluded diagonals N-queens problem is a variation where queens cannot be placed on some predefined fields along…
In this paper, we derive simple closed-form expressions for the $n$-queens problem and three related problems in terms of permanents of $(0,1)$ matrices. These formulas are the first of their kind. Moreover, they provide the first method…
Using modular arithmetic of the ring $\mathbb{Z}_{n+1}$ we obtain a new short solution to the problem of existence of at least one solution to the $N$-Queens problem on an $N \times N$ chessboard. It was proved, that these solutions can be…
How many mutually non-attacking queens can be placed on a d-dimensional chessboard of size n? The n-queens problem in higher dimensions is a generalization of the well-known n-queens problem. We present an integer programming formulation of…
How many mutually non-attacking queens can be placed on a d-dimensional chessboard of size n? The n-queens problem in higher dimensions is a generalization of the well-known n-queens problem. We provide a comprehensive overview of…
The problem of construction of irreducible representations of quantum $A^q_n$ algebras is solved at the level of explicit integration of the linear (inhomogeneous) system in finite differences in the n-dimensional space. The general…
In this work, we have introduced two innovative quantum algorithms: the Direct Column Algorithm and the Quantum Backtracking Algorithm to solve N-Queens problem, which involves the arrangement of $N$ queens on an $N \times N$ chessboard…
The n-queens puzzle is a well-known combinatorial problem that requires to place n queens on an n x n chessboard so that no two queens can attack each other. Since the 19th century, this problem was studied by many mathematicians and…
A linear algorithm is described for solving the n-Queens Completion problem for an arbitrary composition of k queens, consistently distributed on a chessboard of size n x n. Two important rules are used in the algorithm: a) the rule of…
By means of the Ehrhart theory of inside-out polytopes we establish a general counting theory for nonattacking placements of chess pieces with unbounded straight-line moves, such as the queen, on a polygonal convex board. The number of ways…
We consider the problem of preprocessing an $n\times n$ matrix $\mathbf{M}$, and supporting queries that, for any vector $v$, returns the matrix-vector product $\mathbf{M} v$. This problem has been extensively studied in both theory and…
In the paper we consider the linear underdetermined system of a special type. Systems of this type appear in non-homogeneous network flow programming problems in the form of systems of constraints and can be characterized as systems with a…
We apply to the $n\times n$ chessboard the counting theory from Part I for nonattacking placements of chess pieces with unbounded straight-line moves, such as the queen. Part I showed that the number of ways to place $q$ identical…
We consider the problem of placing k queens on an nxn board so that the total number of attacked squares is as small as possible. In particular, we consider the domain where k is small relative to n and derive nearly tight bounds in this…
We study the problem of finding elements in the intersection of an arbitrary conic variety in $\mathbb{F}^n$ with a given linear subspace (where $\mathbb{F}$ can be the real or complex field). This problem captures a rich family of…
We continue the investigation of Boolean-like algebras of dimension n (nBA) having n constants e1,...,en, and an (n+1)-ary operation q (a "generalised if-then-else") that induces a decomposition of the algebra into n factors through the…
This paper analyzes the structure of the set of nodal solutions of a class of one-dimensional superlinear indefinite boundary values problems with an indefinite weight functions in front of the spectral parameter. Quite astonishingly, the…
In this paper, we study the problems of detection and recovery of hidden submatrices with elevated means inside a large Gaussian random matrix. We consider two different structures for the planted submatrices. In the first model, the…
In Parts I-III we showed that the number of ways to place $q$ nonattacking queens or similar chess pieces on an $n\times n$ chessboard is a quasipolynomial function of $n$ whose coefficients are essentially polynomials in $q$. In this part…
We will show that the roots of a polynomial equation in one variable of degree n are related to the solutions of a symmetric quadratic form in n-1 variables with constant positive integer coefficients. The classic polynomial notation will…
