We develop an algorithmically useful refinement of a forbidden submatrix characterization of 0/1-matrices fulfilling the Consecutive Ones Property (C1P). This characterization ...

We consider a class of non-linear mixed integer programs with n integer variables and k continuous variables. Solving instances from this class to optimality is an NP-hard problem....

We study the NP-hard problem of labeling points with maximum-radius circle pairs: given n point sites in the plane, find a placement for 2n interior-disjoint uniform circles, such...

A dominating set D of a graph G = (V, E) is a subset of vertices such that every vertex in V \ D has at least one neighbour in D. Moreover if D is an independent set, i.e. no verti...

The goal of this paper is to propose a tabu search heuristic for the car sequencing problem (CSP) used for the ROADEF 2005 international Challenge. This NP-hard problem was propos...

We prove that computing a geometric minimum-dilation graph on a given set of points in the plane, using not more than a given number of edges, is an NP-hard problem, no matter if ...

It is known that in general, statistical analysis of interval data is an NP-hard problem: even computing the variance of interval data is, in general, NP-hard. Until now, only one ...

It was proved by [Garey and Johnson, 1983] that computing the crossing number of a graph is an NP-hard problem. Their reduction, however, used parallel edges and vertices of very h...

Many instances of NP-hard problems can be solved efficiently if the treewidth of their corresponding graph is small. Finding the optimal tree decompositions is an NP-hard problem a...
