The mixing properties of several Markov chains to sample from configurations of a hard-core model have been examined. The model is familiar in the statistical physics of the liqui...
Abstract. We define an algorithm for determining, in a linear number of symbolic steps, the biconnected components of a graph implicitly represented with Ordered Binary Decision D...
Abstract. We give linear-time algorithms for re-ordering and heightrestricting a binary search tree with only a small increase in cost, constructing a nearly optimal binary search ...
We consider all-optical networks with shortest-path routing that use wavelength-division multiplexing and employ wavelength conversion at specific nodes in order to maximize their...
In this paper some of the most fundamental problems in computational biology are proved intractable. The following problems are shown NP-hard for all binary or larger alphabets und...
Let G be an embedded planar graph whose edges may be curves. For two arbitrary points of G, we can compare the length of the shortest path in G connecting them against their Euclid...
Fixed-angle polygonal chains in 3D serve as an interesting model of protein backbones. Here we consider such chains produced inside a “machine” modeled crudely as a cone, and e...

Abstract Given an edge-weighted transportation network G and a list of transportation requests L, the Stacker Crane Problem is to find a minimum-cost tour for a server along the e...
