New results on shortest paths in three dimensions
We revisit the problem of computing shortest obstacle-avoiding paths among obstacles in three dimensions. We prove new hardness results, showing, e.g., that computing Euclidean sh...

Quantum Lower Bounds by Polynomials
We examine the number T of queries that a quantum network requires to compute several Boolean functions on f0;1gN in the black-box model. We show that, in the blackbox model, the ...

Differential Forms: A New Tool in Economics
Investors would like to calculate profits in advance, “ex ante”, like the path of a flying ball. But income can only be given “ex post”, after the money is earned. The pro...

How randomized search heuristics find maximum cliques in planar graphs
Surprisingly, general search heuristics often solve combinatorial problems quite sufficiently, although they do not outperform specialized algorithms. Here, the behavior of simple...

A Tool for Prioritizing DAGMan Jobs and its Evaluation
It is often difficult to perform efficiently a collection of jobs with complex job dependencies due to temporal unpredictability of the grid. One way to mitigate the unpredictabili...
