Sorting and selection on dynamic data
We formulate and study a new computational model for dynamic data. In this model, the data changes gradually and the goal of an algorithm is to compute the solution to some proble...

An FPTAS for minimizing the product of two non-negative linear cost functions
We consider a quadratic programming (QP) problem (Π) of the form min xT Cx subject to Ax ≥ b where C ∈ Rn×n + , rank(C) = 1 and A ∈ Rm×n , b ∈ Rm . We present an FPTAS ...

Regeneration homotopies for solving systems of polynomials
We present a new technique, based on polynomial continuation, for solving systems of n polynomials in N complex variables. The method allows equations to be introduced one-by-one o...

Solving macroeconomic models with "off-the-shelf" software: An example of potential pitfalls
: When working with large-scale models or numerous small models, there can be a temptation to rely on default settings in proprietary software to derive solutions to the model. In ...
