A combinatorial channel is a set of pairs of words describing all the possible input-output channel situations. We introduce the concept "maximal error-detecting capability&q...
—Many important network design problems can be formulated as a combinatorial optimization problem. A large number of such problems, however, cannot readily be tackled by distribu...
The Combinatorial Public Projects Problem s an abstraction of resource allocation problems in which agents have preferences over alternatives, and an outcome that is to be collect...
We define type-B analogues of combinatorial statistics previously studied on noncrossing partitions and show that analogous equidistribution and symmetry properties hold in the ca...
We study simple greedy approximation algorithms for general class of integer packing problems. We provide a novel analysis based on the duality theory of linear programming. This e...
