The linear systems associated with large, sparse, symmetric, positive definite matrices are often solved iteratively using the preconditioned conjugate gradient method. We have d...
We relate the sequence of minimum bases of a matroid with linearly varying weights to three problems from combinatorial geometry: k-sets, lower envelopes of line segments, and con...
The problem of coloring a set of n intervals (from the real line) with a set of k colors is studied. In such a coloring, two intersecting intervals must receive distinct colors. O...
It is known that the dynamics of best response in an environment of non-cooperative users may converge to a good solution when users play sequentially, but may cycle far away from...
Assume that cause-effect relationships between variables can be described as a directed acyclic graph and the corresponding linear structural equation model We consider the identi...
