Deformation of Chains via a Local Symmetric Group Action
A symmetric group action on the maximal chains in a finite, ranked poset is local if the adjacent transpositions act in such a way that (i, i + 1) sends each maximal chain either ...

A Fibonacci-like Sequence of Composite Numbers
In 1964, Ronald Graham proved that there exist relatively prime natural numbers a and b such that the sequence {An} defined by An = An-1 + An-2 (n 2; A0 = a, A1 = b) contains no ...

HITS Can Converge Slowly, but Not Too Slowly, in Score and Rank
This paper explores the fundamental question of how many iterations the celebrated HITS algorithm requires on a general graph to converge in score and, perhaps more importantly, in...

General Mixed Integer Programming: Computational Issues for Branch-and-Cut Algorithms
In this paper we survey the basic features of state-of-the-art branch-and-cut algorithms for the solution of general mixed integer programming problems. In particular we focus on p...
