The Collatz problem, widely known as the 3x + 1 problem, asks whether or not a certain simple iterative process halts on all inputs. We build on earlier work by J. H. Conway, and ...
Abstract. Kernelizations are an important tool in designing fixed parameter algorithms for parameterized decision problems. We introduce an analogous notion for counting problems,...
For generalized Reed-Solomon codes, it has been proved [7] that the problem of determining if a received word is a deep hole is coNP-complete. The reduction relies on the fact that...
Abstract. Formal language learning models have been widely investigated in the last four decades. But it was not until recently that the model of learning from corrections was intr...
We say that A ≤LR B if every B-random number is A-random. Intuitively this means that if oracle A can identify some patterns on some real γ, oracle B can also find patterns on ...

In previous work we have introduced an average-case measure for the time complexity of Boolean circuits – that is the delay between feeding the input bits into a circuit and the ...
We study non-overlapping axis-parallel packings of 3D boxes with profits into a dedicated bigger box where rotation is either forbidden or permitted; we wish to maximize the total...
