On the Complexity of Matroid Isomorphism Problem
We study the complexity of testing if two given matroids are isomorphic. The problem is easily seen to be in Σ p 2. In the case of linear matroids, which are represented over pol...

Vertex Cover Problem Parameterized Above and Below Tight Bounds
Abstract. We study the well-known Vertex Cover problem parameterized above and below tight bounds. We show that two of the parameterizations (both were suggested by Mahajan, Raman ...

On the Complexity of Computing Winning Strategies for Finite Poset Games
This paper is concerned with the complexity of computing winning strategies for poset games. While it is reasonably clear that such strategies can be computed in PSPACE, we give a ...

Sublinear Time Algorithms for Earth Mover's Distance
We study the problem of estimating the Earth Mover’s Distance (EMD) between probability distributions when given access only to samples of the distributions. We give closeness t...

Spreading of Messages in Random Graphs
Chang and Lyuu [Chang and Lyuu, 2008] study the spreading of a message in an Erd˝os-R´enyi random graph G(n, p) starting from a set of vertices that are convinced of the message...

Tilings and Submonoids of Metabelian Groups
Abstract. In this paper we show that membership in finitely generated submonoids is undecidable for the free metabelian group of rank 2 and for the wreath product Z ≀ (Z × Z). ...

Stackelberg Strategies and Collusion in Network Games with Splittable Flow
We study the impact of collusion in network games with splittable flow and focus on the well established price of anarchy as a measure of this impact. We first investigate symmet...

Weighted Picture Automata and Weighted Logics
The theory of two-dimensional languages, generalizing formal string languages, was motivated by problems arising from image processing and models of parallel computing. Weighted au...

Performance of Scheduling Policies in Adversarial Networks with Non-synchronized Clocks
In this paper we generalize the Continuous Adversarial Queuing Theory (CAQT) model [5] by considering the possibility that the router clocks in the network are not synchronized. W...
