Abstract. We propose a hybrid approach for solving the resource-constrained project scheduling problem which is an extremely hard to solve combinatorial optimization problem of pra...

The max-cut and stable set problems are two fundamental NP-hard problems in combinatorial optimization. It has been known for a long time that any instance of the stable set probl...
We show that thepermanent cannot be computed by uniform constantdepth threshold circuits of size Tn, for any function T such that for all k, Tk n = o2n. More generally, we show th...
We show that recent results of Coppersmith, Boneh, Durfee and Howgrave-Graham actually apply in the more general setting of (partially) approximate common divisors. This leads us t...
