We introduce two incomplete polynomial time algorithms to solve satisfiability problems which both use Linear Programming (LP) techniques. First, the FlipFlop LP attempts to simul...
We present two new branch and bound weighted Max-SAT solvers (Lazy and Lazy ) which incorporate original data structures and inference rules, and a lower bound of better quality.
In this paper, we prove for the first time that the learning complexity of Rocchio’s algorithm is O(d+d2 (log d+log n)) over the discretized vector space {0, . . . , n − 1}d ,...
We study interval coloring problems and present new upper and lower bounds for several variants. We are interested in four problems, online coloring of intervals with and without b...
We prove optimal lower bounds for multilinear circuits and for monotone circuits with bounded depth. These lower bounds state that, in order to compute certain functions, these cir...
Abstract. To establish lower bounds on the amount of replication, there is a common partition argument used to construct indistinguishable executions such that one violates some pr...
Abstract. The NValue constraint counts the number of different values assigned to a vector of variables. Propagating generalized arc consistency on this constraint is NP-hard. We ...
We introduce two new complexity measures for Boolean functions, which we name sumPI and maxPI. The quantity sumPI has been emerging through a line of research on quantum query com...
— In this paper we present new lower bounds on BDD size. These lower bounds are derived from more general lower bounds that recently were given in the context of exact BDD minimi...
We define a family of Distributed Hash Table systems whose aim is to combine routing efficiency of the randomized networks — i.e. average path length O(log n/ log log n) vs. t...
