Abstract. A number-conserving cellular automaton is a cellular automaton whose states are integers and whose transition function keeps the sum of all cells constant throughout its ...
Quantile smoothing splines provide nonparametric estimation of conditional quantile functions. Like other nonparametric smoothing techniques, the choice of smoothing parameters co...
A k-majority tournament T on a finite vertex set V is defined by a set of 2k - 1 linear orderings of V, with u v if and only if u lies above v in at least k of the orders. Motiva...

We recover the first linear programming bound of McEliece, Rodemich, Rumsey, and Welch for binary error-correcting codes and designs via a covering argument. It is possible to sh...
Because of the constant reduction of available public network addresses and the necessity to secure networks, devices like Network Address Translators and firewalls have become qui...
