The complexity of maximum matroid-greedoid intersection and weighted greedoid maximization,
The maximum intersection problem for a matroid and a greedoid, given by polynomialtime oracles, is shown NP-hard by expressing the satisfiability of boolean formulas in 3-conjunct...

Bounding the Vapnik-Chervonenkis Dimension of Concept Classes Parameterized by Real Numbers
The Vapnik-Chervonenkis (V-C) dimension is an important combinatorial tool in the analysis of learning problems in the PAC framework. For polynomial learnability, we seek upper bou...

Multivariate Complexity Analysis of Swap Bribery
We consider the computational complexity of a problem modeling bribery in the context of voting systems. In the scenario of Swap Bribery, each voter assigns a certain price for swa...

Counting Targets with Mobile Sensors in an Unknown Environment
Abstract. We consider the problem of counting the number of indistinguishable targets using a simple binary sensing model. Our setting includes an unknown number of point targets i...

Inclusion-exclusion formulas from independent complexes
Using inclusion-exclusion, we can write the indicator function of a union of finitely many balls as an alternating sum of indicator functions of common intersections of balls. We...
