Given an expander graph G = (V, E) and a set of q disjoint pairs of vertices in V , we are interested in finding for each pair (ai, bi), a path connecting ai to bi, such that the ...
Multiple sequence alignment is a fundamental problem in computational biology. Because of its notorious difficulties, aligning sequences within a constant band (c-diagonal) is a ...
This paper takes the next step in developing the theory of average case complexity initiated by Leonid A Levin. Previous works Levin 84, Gurevich 87, Venkatesan and Levin 88] have...
