There are several systems consisting in an object that moves on the plane by following a given rule. It is frequently observed that these systems eventually fall into an unexplaine...
This paper derives an improved sphere-packing (ISP) bound for finite-length error-correcting codes whose transmission takes place over symmetric memoryless channels, and the codes...
Let ( ) denote the maximum possible number of codewords in a binary code of length and minimum Hamming distance . For large values of , the best known upper bound, for fixed , is t...
A new upper bound on the list error probability is presented. This bound is derived by combining the techniques for obtaining the tangential union bound with an improved bound on t...

We present lower bounds for the vehicle routing problem (VRP) with and without split deliveries, improving the well known bound of Haimovich and Rinnooy Kan. These bounds are then...
