Arithmetic Circuits and the Hadamard Product of Polynomials
Motivated by the Hadamard product of matrices we define the Hadamard product of multivariate polynomials and study its arithmetic circuit and branching program complexity. We also...

Optimal Soft Arc Consistency
The Valued (VCSP) framework is a generic optimization framework with a wide range of applications. Soft arc consistency operations transform a VCSP into an equivalent problem by s...

A Faster Algorithm for Quasi-convex Integer Polynomial Optimization
We present a faster exponential-time algorithm for integer optimization over quasi-convex polynomials. We study the minimization of a quasiconvex polynomial subject to s quasi-con...

Kernelization of packing problems
Kernelization algorithms are polynomial-time reductions from a problem to itself that guarantee their output to have a size not exceeding some bound. For example, d-Set Matching f...

Approximating Single Machine Scheduling with Scenarios
In the field of robust optimization, the goal is to provide solutions to combinatorial problems that hedge against variations of the numerical parameters. This constitutes an effor...
