We investigate issues regarding two hard problems related to voting, the optimal weighted lobbying problem and the winner problem for Dodgson elections. Regarding the former, Chris...
Recently, there has been an increased focus on modeling uncertainty by distributions. Suppose we wish to compute a function of a stream whose elements are samples drawn independen...
The black box algorithm for separating the numerator from the denominator of a multivariate rational function can be combined with sparse multivariate polynomial interpolation alg...
We present three new algorithms for on-line multiple string matching allowing errors. These are extensions of previous algorithms that search for a single pattern. The average run...
We present a polynomial time approximation algorithm for unit time precedence constrained scheduling. Our algorithm guarantees schedules which are at most 2 - 7 3p+1 factor as lon...
