The collision problem is to decide whether a function X : {1, . . . , n} {1, . . . , n} is one-to-one or two-to-one, given that one of these is the case. We show a lower bound of...

Abstract. In this paper, we study lower bound techniques for branchand-bound algorithms for maximum parsimony, with a focus on gene order data. We give a simple O(n3 ) time dynamic...

The known secret-sharing schemes for most access structures are not efficient; even for a one-bit secret the length of the shares in the schemes is 2O(n) , where n is the number of...
