Counting Solution Clusters in Graph Coloring Problems Using Belief Propagation
We show that an important and computationally challenging solution space feature of the graph coloring problem (COL), namely the number of clusters of solutions, can be accurately...

Nash Dynamics in Congestion Games with Similar Resources
We study convergence of ε-Nash dynamics in congestion games when delay functions of all resources are similar. Delay functions are said to be similar if their values are within a...
