Abstract. We present a new method to break symmetry in graph coloring problems. While most alternative techniques add symmetry breaking predicates in a pre-processing step, we deve...
Abstract. We study containment of conjunctive queries that are evaluated over databases that may contain tuples with null values. We assume the semantics of SQL for single block qu...
State-of-the-art verification tools are based on efficient operations on Boolean formulas. Traditional manipulation techniques are based on Binary Decision Diagrams (BDDs) and SAT...
We study the power of nonadaptive quantum query algorithms, which are algorithms whose queries to the input do not depend on the result of previous queries. First, we show that an...
Abstract. The input to a constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) consists of a set of variables, each with a domain, and constraints between these variables formulated by relations o...
