Abstract. Inapproximability results concerning minimization of nondeterministic finite automata relative to given deterministic finite automata were obtained only recently, modul...
The theory of Markov set-chains is applied to derive upper and lower bounds on the capacity of finite-state channels that are tighter than the classic bounds by Gallager. The new ...
We consider the question: What is the maximum flow achievable in a network if the flow must be decomposable into a collection of edgedisjoint paths? Equivalently, we wish to find a...
In this paper, we resolve the smoothed and approximative complexity of low-rank quasi-concave minimization, providing both upper and lower bounds. As an upper bound, we provide th...
We obtain new lower and upper bounds for the maximum multiplicity of some weighted and, respectively, non-weighted common geometric graphs drawn on n points in the plane in genera...
