Lower Bounds for Dynamic Algorithms
We study the complexity of the dynamic partial sum problem in the cell-probe model. We give the model access to nondeterministic queries and prove that the problem remains hard. We...

The Parameterization of Joint Rotation with the Unit Quaternion
Abstract. Unit quaternion is an ideal parameterization for joint rotations. However, due to the complexity of the geometry of S3 group, it’s hard to specify meaningful joint cons...

On the Positive-Negative Partial Set Cover problem
The Positive-Negative Partial Set Cover problem is introduced and its complexity, especially the hardness-of-approximation, is studied. The problem generalizes the Set Cover probl...

Scheduling Multiple Divisible Loads
In this paper we study the scheduling of multiple divisible loads on a star network of processors. We show that this problem is computationally hard. Special cases solvable in pol...

On Parameterized Approximability
Abstract. Combining classical approximability questions with parameterized complexity, we introduce a theory of parameterized approximability. The main intention of this theory is ...
