Emergent Syntax: The Unremitting Value of Computational Modeling for Understanding the Origins of Complex Language
Abstract. In this paper we explore the similarities between a mathematical model of language evolution and several A-life simulations. We argue that the mathematical model makes so...

The Complexity of Computing Minimal Unidirectional Covering Sets
Abstract. Given a binary dominance relation on a set of alternatives, a common thread in the social sciences is to identify subsets of alternatives that satisfy certain notions of ...

The Computational Complexity of Weak Saddles
Abstract. We continue the recently initiated study of the computational aspects of weak saddles, an ordinal set-valued solution concept proposed by Shapley. Brandt et al. gave a po...

The Computational Complexity of the Minimum Weight Processor Assignment Problem
In portable multimedia systems a number of communicating tasks has to be performed on a set of heterogeneous processors. This should be done in an energy-efficient way. We give th...

The Computational Complexity of Knot and Link Problems
We consider the problem of deciding whether a polygonal knot in 3dimensional Euclidean space is unknotted, capable of being continuously deformed without self-intersection so that...
