We use techniques from sample-complexity in machine learning to reduce problems of incentive-compatible mechanism design to standard algorithmic questions, for a wide variety of r...

In this paper, we focus on the problem of existence of and computing small and large stable models. We show that for every xed integer k, there is a linear-time algorithm to decid...
Abstract Description Logics (DLs) are a family of class (concept) based knowledge representation formalisms. They are characterised by the use of various constructors to build comp...
We prove old and new results on the complexity of computing the dimension of algebraic varieties. In particular, we show that this problem is NP-complete in the Blum-Shub-Smale mo...
A programming exercise on recursion in which students create drawings of simple and bracketed Lindenmayer Systems provides a context for exploring additional computer science conc...
