We introduce new techniques for studying the structure of partial k-trees. In particular, we show that the complements of partial k-trees provide an intuitively-appealing character...
Abstract. We study the succinctness of the complement and intersection of regular expressions. In particular, we show that when constructing a regular expression defining the compl...
Abstract. Inapproximability results concerning minimization of nondeterministic finite automata relative to given deterministic finite automata were obtained only recently, modul...
We present a new series of run-rich strings, and give a new lower bound 0.94457567 of the maximum number of runs in a string. We also introduce the general conjecture about a asymp...
We prove a lower bound for swapping the order of Arthur and Merlin in two-round MerlinArthur games using black-box techniques. Namely, we show that any AM-game requires time (t2 )...
