Reducing mechanism design to algorithm design via machine learning
We use techniques from sample-complexity in machine learning to reduce problems of incentive-compatible mechanism design to standard algorithmic questions, for a broad class of re...

Domain-dependent distributed models for railway scheduling
Many combinatorial problems can be modelled as Constraint Satisfaction Problems (CSPs). Solving a general CSP is known to be NP-complete, so closure and heuristic search are usual...

Quantum Search of Spatial Regions
: Can Grover’s algorithm speed up search of a physical region—for example a 2-D grid of size √ n × √ n? The problem is that √ n time seems to be needed for each query, j...

K-isomorphism: privacy preserving network publication against structural attacks
Serious concerns on privacy protection in social networks have been raised in recent years; however, research in this area is still in its infancy. The problem is challenging due ...

Matchability and k-maximal matchings
We present a collection of new structural, algorithmic, and complexity results for two types of matching problems. The first problem involves the computation of k-maximal matchin...
