Generating Minimal k-Vertex Connected Spanning Subgraphs
Abstract. We show that minimal k-vertex connected spanning subgraphs of a given graph can be generated in incremental polynomial time for any fixed k.

The Informational Content of Canonical Disjoint NP-Pairs
We investigate the connection between propositional proof systems and their canonical pairs. It is known that simulations between proof systems translate to reductions between the...

Online Interval Scheduling: Randomized and Multiprocessor Cases
We consider the problem of scheduling a set of equal-length intervals arriving online, where each interval is associated with a weight and the objective is to maximize the total we...

On the Hardness of Optimization in Power Law Graphs
Our motivation for this work is the remarkable discovery that many large-scale real-world graphs ranging from Internet and World Wide Web to social and biological networks exhibit ...

Seed-Based Exclusion Method for Non-coding RNA Gene Search
Given an RNA family characterized by conserved sequences and folding constraints, the problem is to search for all the instances of the RNA family in a genomic database. As seed-ba...

On the Number of Cycles in Planar Graphs
We investigate the maximum number of simple cycles and the maximum number of Hamiltonian cycles in a planar graph G with n vertices. Using the transfer matrix method we construct a...

"Resistant" Polynomials and Stronger Lower Bounds for Depth-Three Arithmetical Formulas
We derive quadratic lower bounds on the ∗-complexity of sum-of-products-of-sums (ΣΠΣ) formulas for classes of polynomials f that have too few partial derivatives for the techn...

Priority Algorithms for the Subset-Sum Problem
Greedy algorithms are simple, but their relative power is not well understood. The priority framework [5] captures a key notion of “greediness” in the sense that it processes (...

Approximation Algorithms for Reconstructing the Duplication History of Tandem Repeats
Tandem repeated regions are closely related to some genetic diseases in human beings. Once a region containing pseudo-periodic repeats is found, it is interesting to study the his...
