Given a graph $G$, the Connected Vertex Cover problem (CVC) asks to find a minimum cardinality vertex cover of $G$ that induces a connected subgraph. In this paper we describe some approaches to solve the CVC problem exactly. First, we give…

In this paper we study the problem of maintaining the strongly connected components of a graph in the presence of failures. In particular, we show that given a directed graph $G=(V,E)$ with $n=|V|$ and $m=|E|$, and an integer value $k\geq…

In affine formation control problems, the construction of the framework with universal rigidity and affine localizability is a critical prerequisite, but it has not yet been well addressed, especially when additional agents join the…

Determining the quantum circuit complexity of a unitary operation is closely related to the problem of finding minimal length paths in a particular curved geometry [Nielsen et al, Science 311, 1133-1135 (2006)]. This paper investigates many…

In this paper, we investigate the optimization of Centroidal Voronoi Tessellations (CVT) under geometric constraints. For this purpose, we minimize a linear combination of the standard CVT energy functional with terms involving geometric…

We consider a class of popular distributed non-convex optimization problems, in which agents connected by a network $\mathcal{G}$ collectively optimize a sum of smooth (possibly non-convex) local objective functions. We address the…

Variational quantum algorithms (VQAs) provide a promising approach to achieving quantum advantage for practical problems on near-term noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) devices. Thus far, most studies on VQAs have focused on…

Given a prime q and a negative discriminant D, the CM method constructs an elliptic curve E/\Fq by obtaining a root of the Hilbert class polynomial H_D(X) modulo q. We consider an approach based on a decomposition of the ring class field…

We develop the contact singularity theory for singularly-perturbed (or `slow-fast') vector fields of the general form $z' = H(z,\varepsilon)$, $z\in\mathbb{R}^n$ and $\varepsilon\ll 1$. Our main result is the derivation of computable,…

On a manifold with an almost contact metric structure $(\varphi,\vec\xi,\eta,g,X,D)$ the notions of the interior and the $N$-prolonged connections are introduced. Using the $N$-prolonged connection, a new almost contact metric structure is…

Coalition formation typically involves the coming together of multiple, heterogeneous, agents to achieve both their individual and collective goals. In this paper, we focus on a special case of coalition formation known as Graph-Constrained…

The aim of this work is to develop a systematic manner to close overdetermined systems arising from conformal Killing tensors (CKT). The research performs this action for 1-tensor and 2-tensors. This research makes it possible to develop a…

On conformal manifolds of even dimension $n\geq 4$ we construct a family of new conformally invariant differential complexes. Each bundle in each of these complexes appears either in the de Rham complex or in its dual. Each of the new…

This paper proposes a novel class of distributed continuous-time coordination algorithms to solve network optimization problems whose cost function is a sum of local cost functions associated to the individual agents. We establish the…

Recent developments in machine-learning based molecular fragment linking have demonstrated the importance of informing the generation process with structural information specifying the relative orientation of the fragments to be linked.…

The property of a surface being developable can be expressed in different equivalent ways, by vanishing Gauss curvature, or by the existence of isometric mappings to planar domains. Computational contributions to this topic range from…

Cooperative map matching (CMM) uses the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) position information of a group of vehicles to improve the standalone localization accuracy. It has been shown, in our previous work, that the GNSS error can…

We prove a sufficient condition for the existence of explicit first integrals for vector fields which admit an integrating factor. This theorem recovers and extends previous results in the literature on the integrability of vector fields…

This paper describes in detail the construction of a local right-handed, orthogonal curvilinear coordinate system whose axes are along the local tangent, the local azimuth and the local normal of an analytically defined 3D surface of…

In the low energy region chiral perturbation theory including virtual photons is used to derive the structure of the generating functional. The work we do is performed within the three flavor framework and reaches up to next-to-leading…
