On Small Dense Sets in Galois Planes
This paper deals with new infinite families of small dense sets in desarguesian projective planes PG(2, q). A general construction of dense sets of size about 3q2/3 is presented....

Crossing Number and Weighted Crossing Number of Near-Planar Graphs
A nonplanar graph G is near-planar if it contains an edge e such that G−e is planar. The problem of determining the crossing number of a near-planar graph is exhibited from diffe...

Mirrored sampling in evolution strategies with weighted recombination
This paper introduces mirrored sampling into evolution strategies (ESs) with weighted multi-recombination. Two further heuristics are introduced: pairwise selection selects at mos...

Hardness Preserving Constructions of Pseudorandom Functions
We show a hardness-preserving construction of a PRF from any length doubling PRG which improves upon known constructions whenever we can put a non-trivial upper bound q on the numb...

A 5/3-Approximation for Finding Spanning Trees with Many Leaves in Cubic Graphs
For a connected graph G, let L(G) denote the maximum number of leaves in a spanning tree in G. The problem of computing L(G) is known to be NP-hard even for cubic graphs. We improv...
