Optimal Anytime Constrained Simulated Annealing for Constrained Global Optimization
Abstract. In this paper we propose an optimal anytime version of constrained simulated annealing (CSA) for solving constrained nonlinear programming problems (NLPs). One of the goa...

CSP gaps and reductions in the lasserre hierarchy
We study integrality gaps for SDP relaxations of constraint satisfaction problems, in the hierarchy of SDPs defined by Lasserre. Schoenebeck [25] recently showed the first integra...

Secure and private sequence comparisons
We give an efficient protocol for sequence comparisons of the edit-distance kind, such that neither party reveals anything about their private sequence to the other party (other t...

Modelchecking counting properties of 1-safe nets with buffers in paraPSPACE
ABSTRACT. We consider concurrent systems that can be modelled as 1-safe Petri nets communicating through a fixed set of buffers (modelled as unbounded places). We identify a param...
