We propose simple polynomial-time algorithms for two linear conic feasibility problems. For a matrix $A\in \mathbb{R}^{m\times n}$, the kernel problem requires a positive vector in the kernel of $A$, and the image problem requires a…
We propose a unified framework to address a family of classical mixed-integer optimization problems with logically constrained decision variables, including network design, facility location, unit commitment, sparse portfolio selection,…
Internal Pattern Matching (IPM) queries on a text $T$, given two fragments $X$ and $Y$ of $T$ such that $|Y|<2|X|$, ask to compute all exact occurrences of $X$ within $Y$. IPM queries have been introduced by Kociumaka, Radoszewski, Rytter,…
Covering and elimination inequalities are central to combinatorial optimization, yet their role has largely been studied in problem-specific settings or via no-good cuts. This paper introduces a unified perspective that treats these…
Motivated by applications in single-cell biology and metagenomics, we investigate the problem of matrix reordering based on a noisy disordered monotone Toeplitz matrix model. We establish the fundamental statistical limit for this problem…
In the recent paper [Duff I. et al, SIAM J. Sci. Comp., 37(3) (2015), A1248-A1269] the authors proposed an interesting procedure for the parallel solution of large, sparse consistent linear systems of equations. In this respect, according…
In this letter, we consider a problem of reconstructing an unknown discrete signal taking values in a finite alphabet from incomplete linear measurements. The difficulty of this problem is that the computational complexity of the…
Graphs with high symmetry or regularity are the main source for experimentally hard instances of the notoriously difficult graph isomorphism problem. In this paper, we study the computational complexity of isomorphism testing for line…
To recover a sparse signal from an underdetermined system, we often solve a constrained L1-norm minimization problem. In many cases, the signal sparsity and the recovery performance can be further improved by replacing the L1 norm with a…
Given a countable set X (usually taken to be N or Z), an infinite permutation $\pi$ of X is a linear ordering $<_\pi$ of X. This paper investigates the combinatorial complexity of infinite permutations on N associated with the image of…
The sparse linear reconstruction problem is a core problem in signal processing which aims to recover sparse solutions to linear systems. The original problem regularized by the total number of nonzero components (also known as $L_0$…
We study optimal decision policies for integer linear programs with a fixed feasible set and varying cost vectors, represented as linear decision trees. Once synthesized for a given feasible set, they return an optimal solution for any…
We present a new and faster algorithm for the 4-block integer linear programming problem, overcoming the long-standing runtime barrier faced by previous algorithms that rely on Graver complexity or proximity bounds. The 4-block integer…
We study the computational complexity of reachability, coverability and inclusion for extensions of context-free commutative grammars with integer counters and reset operations on them. Those grammars can alternatively be viewed as an…
We introduce the strongly NP-complete pagination problem, an extension of BIN PACKING where packing together two items may make them occupy less volume than the sum of their individual sizes. To achieve this property, an item is defined as…
Motivated by the need to better understand the properties of sparse cutting-planes used in mixed integer programming solvers, the paper [2] studied the idealized problem of how well a polytope is approximated by the use of sparse valid…
Indefinite quadratic programs (QPs) are known to be very difficult to be solved to global optimality, so are linear programs with linear complementarity constraints. Treating the former as a subclass of the latter, this paper presents a…
Bridging logical and algorithmic reasoning with modern machine learning techniques is a fundamental challenge with potentially transformative impact. On the algorithmic side, many NP-hard problems can be expressed as integer programs, in…
It is known [DemriSchnoebelen02] that both satisfiability and model-checking problems for propositional Linear-time Temporal Logic, LTL, with only a single propositional variable in the language are PSPACE-complete, which coincides with the…
We prove that integer programming with three quantifier alternations is $NP$-complete, even for a fixed number of variables. This complements earlier results by Lenstra and Kannan, which together say that integer programming with at most…
