Let A3(n, d, w) denote the maximum cardinality of a ternary code with length n, minimum distance d, and constant Hamming weight w. Methods for proving upper and lower bounds on A3...
The challenge of maximizing the diversity of a collection of points arises in a variety of settings, including the setting of search methods for hard optimization problems. One ver...
Let G be a tree and let H be a collection of subgraphs of G, each having at most d connected components. Let (H) denote the maximum number of members of H no two of which share a ...
In this paper, we present a Branch and Bound algorithm called QuickBB for computing the treewidth of an undirected graph. This algorithm performs a search in the space of perfect ...
Abstract. We introduce nondeterministic graph searching with a controlled amount of nondeterminism and show how this new tool can be used in algorithm design and combinatorial anal...
