New Bounds for MAX-SAT by Clause Learning
To solve a problem on a given CNF formula F a splitting algorithm recursively calls for F[v] and F[¬v] for a variable v. Obviously, after the first call an algorithm obtains some...

Maximal Intersection Queries in Randomized Graph Models
Consider a family of sets and a single set, called query set. How can one quickly find a member of the family which has a maximal intersection with the query set? Strict time cons...

Marrying Words and Trees
Traditionally, data that has both linear and hierarchical structure, such as annotated linguistic data, is modeled using ordered trees and queried using tree automata. In this pap...

Conjunctive Grammars over a Unary Alphabet: Undecidability and Unbounded Growth
Abstract It has recently been proved (Je˙z, DLT 2007) that conjunctive grammars (that is, context-free grammars augmented by conjunction) generate some nonregular languages over a...

Equivalence Problems for Circuits over Sets of Natural Numbers
We investigate the complexity of equivalence problems for {∪, ∩, − , +, ×}-circuits computing sets of natural numbers. These problems were first introduced by Stockmeyer an...

Pushing Random Walk Beyond Golden Ratio
We propose a simple modification of a well-known Random Walk algorithm for solving the Satisfiability problem and analyze its performance on random CNFs with a planted solution. ...
