Completely Inapproximable Monotone and Antimonotone Parameterized Problems
We prove that weighted monotone/antimonotone circuit satisfiability has no fixed-parameter tractable approximation algorithm with any approximation ratio function ρ, unless FPT...

On Slicewise Monotone Parameterized Problems and Optimal Proof Systems for TAUT
Abstract. For a reasonable sound and complete proof calculus for firstorder logic consider the problem to decide, given a sentence of firstorder logic and a natural number n, whet...

Introducing Softness into Inductive Queries on String Databases
In many application domains (e.g., WWW mining, molecular biology), large string datasets are available and yet under-exploited. The inductive database framework assumes that both s...
