Abstract. Given a simple n-sided polygon in the plane with a boundary partitioned into subchains some of which are convex and colored, we consider the following problem: Which is t...
We prove that the edges of every graph of bounded (Euler) genus can be partitioned into any prescribed number k of pieces such that contracting any piece results in a graph of bou...

In the longest common subsequence problem the task is to find the longest sequence of letters that can be found as subsequence in all members of a given finite set of sequences....
Abstract: We introduce the snowblower problem (SBP), a new optimization problem that is closely related to milling problems and to some material-handling problems. The objective in...

Abstract. In this paper we consider a generalization of the edge dominating set (EDS) problem, in which each edge e needs to be covered be times and refer to this as the b-EDS prob...
