Random sampling of lattice paths with constraints, via transportation
We investigate Monte Carlo Markov Chain (MCMC) procedures for the random sampling of some one-dimensional lattice paths with constraints, for various constraints. We will see that...

Exploring the Relationship Between Max-Cut and Stable Set Relaxations
The max-cut and stable set problems are two fundamental NP-hard problems in combinatorial optimization. It has been known for a long time that any instance of the stable set probl...

On the fourier tails of bounded functions over the discrete cube
In this paper we consider bounded real-valued functions over the discrete cube, f : {-1, 1}n [-1, 1]. Such functions arise naturally in theoretical computer science, combinatorics...

A Simple Optimal Representation for Balanced Parentheses
We consider succinct, or highly space-efficient, representations of a (static) string consisting of n pairs of balanced parentheses, that support natural operations such as findi...

Global Interactions in Random Field Models: A Potential Function Ensuring Connectedness
Markov random field (MRF) models, including conditional random field models, are popular in computer vision. However, in order to be computationally tractable, they are limited to ...
