This research concerns fundamental performance limitations in control of discrete time nonlinear systems. The fundamental limitations are expressed in terms of the average cost of ...
An input-oblivious proof system is a proof system in which the proof does not depend on the claim being proved. Input-oblivious versions of NP and MA were introduced in passing by...
We consider a polymerization (fragmentation) model with size-dependent parameters involved in prion proliferation. Using power laws for the different rates of this model, we reco...
Quadratic assignment problems (QAPs) with a Hamming distance matrix for a hypercube or a Manhattan distance matrix for a rectangular grid arise frequently from communications and ...
ABSTRACT. We prove the so-called generalized Haff's law yielding the optimal algebraic cooling rate of the temperature of a granular gas described by the homogeneous Boltzmann...
