Algorithms based on following local gradient information are surprisingly effective for certain classes of constraint satisfaction problems. Unfortunately, previous local search a...
We present an algorithm running in time O(n log n) which decides if a wreathclosed permutation class Av(B) given by its finite basis B contains a finite number of simple permutati...
Strategic games may exhibit symmetries in a variety of ways. A characteristic feature, enabling the compact representation of games even when the number of players is unbounded, i...
A well-known result due to Vickery gives a mechanism for selling a number of goods to interested buyers in a way that achieves the maximum social welfare. In practice, a problem wi...
We examine the computational complexity of testing and nding small plans in probabilistic planning domains with both at and propositional representations. The complexity of plan e...
