On a Conjecture on Wiener Indices in Combinatorial Chemistry
Drugs and other chemical compounds are often modeled as polygonal shapes, where each vertex represents an atom of the molecule, and covalent bonds between atoms are represented by...

Price based protocols for fair resource allocation: convergence time analysis and extension to Leontief utilities
We analyze several distributed, continuous time protocols for a fair allocation of bandwidths to flows in a network (or resources to agents). Our protocols converge to an allocati...

On the Inapproximability of Vertex Cover on k-Partite k-Uniform Hypergraphs
Computing a minimum vertex cover in graphs and hypergraphs is a well-studied optimizaton problem. While intractable in general, it is well known that on bipartite graphs, vertex c...
