We show how to compute Hong’s bound for the absolute positiveness of a polynomial in d variables with maximum degree δ in O(n logd n) time, where n is the number of non-zero co...
In this paper we present an algorithmic framework for solving a class of combinatorial optimization problems on graphs with bounded pathwidth. The problems are NP-hard in general, ...
We prove that the constraint languages invariant under a short sequence of J´onsson terms (containing at most three non-trivial ternary terms) are tractable by showing that they h...
Let ( ) denote the maximum size of a -ary code of length and distance . We study the minimum asymptotic redundancy ( ) = log ( ) as grows while and are fixed. For any and 1, long a...
Using a B-spline representation for splines with knots seen as free variables, the approximation to data by splines improves greatly. The main limitations are the presence of too ...
