We give a complexity theoretic classification of homomorphism problems for graphs and, more generally, relational structures obtained by restricting the left hand side structure ...
Sequence data are abundant in application areas such as computational biology, environmental sciences, and telecommunications. Many real-life sequences have a strong segmental str...
Most known constructions of probabilistically checkable proofs (PCPs) either blow up the proof size by a large polynomial, or have a high (though constant) query complexity. In thi...
This paper is motivated by the open question whether the union of two disjoint NPcomplete sets always is NP-complete. We discover that such unions retain much of the complexity of...
The exponent of periodicity is an important factor in estimates of complexity of word-unification algorithms. We prove that the exponent of periodicity of a minimal solution of a w...
