Abstract. We show that finding roots of Boolean matrices is an NPhard problem. This answers a twenty year old question from semigroup theory. Interpreting Boolean matrices as dire...
Abstract. We present transformations of linearly ordered sets into ordered abelian groups and ordered fields. We study effective properties of the transformations. In particular, w...
A central question in computational biology is the design of genetic markers to distinguish between two given sets of (DNA) sequences. This question is formalized as the NP-comple...
Module systems are a powerful, practical tool for managing the complexity of large software systems. Previous attempts to formulate a type-theoretic foundation for modular program...
Multicut is a fundamental network communication and connectivity problem. It is defined as: given an undirected graph and a collection of pairs of terminal vertices, find a minimu...
