For $n,d,w \in \mathbb{N}$, let $A(n,d,w)$ denote the maximum size of a binary code of word length $n$, minimum distance $d$ and constant weight $w$. Schrijver recently showed using semidefinite programming that $A(23,8,11)=1288$, and the…
The transversal hypergraph problem is the task of enumerating the minimal hitting sets of a hypergraph. It is a long-standing open question whether this can be done in output-polynomial time. For hypergraphs whose solutions have bounded…
We consider an off-line optimisation problem where $k$ robots must service $n$ requests on a single line. A request $i$ has weight $w_i$ and takes place at time $t_i$ at location $d_i$ on the line. A robot can service a request and collect…
In this paper, we give a faster width-dependent algorithm for mixed packing-covering LPs. Mixed packing-covering LPs are fundamental to combinatorial optimization in computer science and operations research. Our algorithm finds a $1+\eps$…
In this paper, we provide polynomial-time algorithms for different extensions of the matching counting problem, namely maximal matchings, path matchings (linear forest) and paths, on graph classes of bounded clique-width. For maximal…
Let G be a bipartite graph with positive integer weights on the edges and without isolated nodes. Let n, N and W be the node count, the largest edge weight and the total weight of G. Let k(x,y) be log(x)/log(x^2/y). We present a new…
Path partition problems on trees have found various applications. In this paper, we present an $O(n \log n)$ time algorithm for solving the following variant of path partition problem: given a rooted tree of $n$ nodes $1, \ldots, n$, where…
In this paper we revisit the classical regular expression matching problem, namely, given a regular expression $R$ and a string $Q$, decide if $Q$ matches one of the strings specified by $R$. Let $m$ and $n$ be the length of $R$ and $Q$,…
Let S be a finite, ordered alphabet, and let x = x_1 x_2 ... x_n be a string over S. A "secondary index" for x answers alphabet range queries of the form: Given a range [a_l,a_r] over S, return the set I_{[a_l;a_r]} = {i |x_i \in [a_l;…
We present a general technique, based on parametric search with some twist, for solving a variety of optimization problems on a set of semi-algebraic geometric objects of constant complexity. The common feature of these problems is that…
Given a graph $G=(V, E)$ and and a proper labeling $f$ from $V$ to $\{1, ..., n\}$, we define $B(f)$ as the maximum absolute difference between $f(u)$ and $f(v)$ where $(u,v)\in E$. The bandwidth of $G$ is the minimum $B(f)$ for all $f$.…
A class of generalized conditional gradient algorithms for the solution of optimization problem in spaces of Radon measures is presented. The method iteratively inserts additional Dirac-delta functions and optimizes the corresponding…
In the longest common substring (LCS) problem, we are given two strings $S$ and $T$, each of length at most $n$, and we are asked to find a longest string occurring as a fragment of both $S$ and $T$. This is a classical and well-studied…
Biclustering, also called co-clustering, block clustering, or two-way clustering, involves the simultaneous clustering of both the rows and columns of a data matrix into distinct groups, such that the rows and columns within a group display…
We are concerned with the fastest possible direct numerical solution algorithm for a thin-banded or tridiagonal linear system of dimension $N$ on a distributed computing network of $N$ nodes that is connected in a binary communication tree.…
Nishimoto and Tabei [CPM, 2021] proposed r-enum, an algorithm to enumerate various characteristic substrings, including maximal repeats, in a string $T$ of length $n$ in $O(r)$ words of compressed working space, where $r \le n$ is the…
The maximum coverage problem is to select $k$ sets from a collection of sets such that the cardinality of the union of the selected sets is maximized. We consider $(1-1/e-\epsilon)$-approximation algorithms for this NP-hard problem in three…
We show sublinear-time algorithms for Max Cut and Max E2Lin$(q)$ on expanders in the adjacency list model that distinguishes instances with the optimal value more than $1-\varepsilon$ from those with the optimal value less than $1-\rho$ for…
We consider integer programming problems $\max \{ c^T x : \mathcal{A} x = b, l \leq x \leq u, x \in \mathbb{Z}^{nt}\}$ where $\mathcal{A}$ has a (recursive) block-structure generalizing "$n$-fold integer programs" which recently received…
I present a parallel algorithm for exact probabilistic inference in Bayesian networks. For polytree networks with n variables, the worst-case time complexity is O(log n) on a CREW PRAM (concurrent-read, exclusive-write parallel…
