Kernelization of packing problems
Kernelization algorithms are polynomial-time reductions from a problem to itself that guarantee their output to have a size not exceeding some bound. For example, d-Set Matching f...

Vertex Cover Problem Parameterized Above and Below Tight Bounds
Abstract. We study the well-known Vertex Cover problem parameterized above and below tight bounds. We show that two of the parameterizations (both were suggested by Mahajan, Raman ...

The effect of fading, channel inversion, and threshold scheduling on ad hoc networks
—This paper addresses three issues in the field of ad hoc network capacity: the impact of i) channel fading, ii) channel inversion power control, and iii) threshold–based sche...

Degree-bounded factorizations of bipartite multigraphs and of pseudographs
For d 1, s 0 a (d,d +s)-graph is a graph whose degrees all lie in the interval {d,d +1,...,d +s}. For r 1, a 0 an (r,r+1)-factor of a graph G is a spanning (r,r+a)-subgraph of...

State Complexity of Union and Intersection of Finite Languages
Abstract. We investigate the state complexity of union and intersection for finite languages. Note that the problem of obtaining the tight bounds for both operations was open. We ...

Bounding the Resource Availability of Activities with Linear Resource Impact
We introduce the Linear Resource Temporal Network (LRTN), which consists of activities that consume or produce a resource, subject to absolute and relative metric temporal constra...

Weight Distribution and List-Decoding Size of Reed-Muller Codes
: We study the weight distribution and list-decoding size of Reed-Muller codes. Given a weight parameter, we are interested in bounding the number of Reed-Muller codewords with a w...

A Tight Lower Bound for k-Set Agreement
: Weprove tight bounds on the time needed to solve k-set agreement, a natural generalization of consensus. We analyze this problem in a synchronous, message-passing model where pro...

Exact Runtime Analysis Using Automata-Based Symbolic Simulation
In this paper, we present a technique for determining tight bounds on the execution time of assembler programs. Thus, our method is independent of the design flow, but takes into...

Cuttings for Disks and Axis-Aligned Rectangles
We present new asymptotically tight bounds on cuttings, a fundamental data structure in computational geometry. For n objects in space and a parameter r ∈ N, an 1 r -cutting is ...
