Constructing high order elements through subspace polynomials
Every finite field has many multiplicative generators. However, finding one in polynomial time is an important open problem. In fact, even finding elements of high order has n...

Kernelization of packing problems
Kernelization algorithms are polynomial-time reductions from a problem to itself that guarantee their output to have a size not exceeding some bound. For example, d-Set Matching f...

Independent Directed Acyclic Graphs for Resilient Multipath Routing
—In order to achieve resilient multipath routing we introduce the concept of Independent Directed Acyclic Graphs (IDAGs) in this study. Link-independent (Node-independent) DAGs s...
