Fast FAST
We present a randomized subexponential time, polynomial space parameterized algorithm for the k-Weighted Feedback Arc Set in Tournaments (k-FAST) problem. We also show that our alg...

An Analysis of the Height of Tries with Random Weights on the Edges
We analyze the weighted height of random tries built from independent strings of i.i.d. symbols on the finite alphabet {1, . . . , d}. The edges receive random weights whose distr...
