A path from s to t on a polyhedral terrain is descending if the height of a point p never increases while we move p along the path from s to t. No efficient algorithm is known to ...

Assume that two points p and q are given and a finite ordered set of simple polygons, all in the same plane; the basic version of a touring-a-sequence-of-polygons problem (TPP) is...
The dominatingset problemin graphs asks for a minimumsize subset of vertices with the followingproperty: each vertex is required to either be in the dominating set, or adjacent to...
Motivated by the application of seismic inversion in the petroleum industry we consider a hidden Markov model with two hidden layers. The bottom layer is a Markov chain and given ...
The problem of maximizing a concave function f(x) in a simplex S can be solved approximately by a simple greedy algorithm. For given k, the algorithm can find a point x(k) on a k-...
