An upper dominating set in a graph is a minimal dominating set of maximum cardinality. The problem of finding an upper dominating set is generally NP-hard. We study the complexity of this problem in finitely d...

We study the circuit evaluation problem (also known as the compressed word problem) for finitely generated linear groups. The best upper bound for this problem is coRP (the complements of problems in randomized p...

The most common representation in evolutionary computation are bit strings. With very little theoretical work existing on how to use evolutionary algorithms for decision variables taking more than two values, ...

Given a partition of an n element set into equivalence classes, we study the problem of assigning unique labels to these elements in order to support the query that asks whether the elements corresponding to two ...

The rotor–router model, also called the Propp machine, was first considered as a deterministic alternative to the random walk. The edges adjacent to each node v (or equivalently, the exit ports at v) are arranged...

Interval graphs are intersection graphs of closed intervals of the real-line. The well-known computational problem, called recognition, asks whether an input graph G can be represented by closed intervals, i.e., ...

We present deterministic and randomized algorithms for the problem of online packet routing in grids in the competitive network throughput model (Aiello et al. in SODA, pp 771–780 2003). In this model the network...

We consider the problems of finding optimal identifying codes, (open) locating-dominating sets and resolving sets (denoted Identifying Code, (Open) Open Locating-Dominating Set and Metric Dimension) of an interva...

We study connectivity relations among points, where the precise location of each input point lies in a region of uncertainty. We distinguish two fundamental scenarios under which uncertainty arises. In the fav...

We study the stable roommates problem in networks where players are embedded in a social context and may incorporate positive externalities into their decisions. Each player is a node in a social network and s...

Braess’s paradox states that removing a part of a network may improve the players’ latency at equilibrium. In this work, we study the approximability of the best subnetwork problem for the class of random ...
