Combinatorial auctions (CAs) are important mechanisms for allocating interrelated items. Unfortunately, winner determination is NP-complete unless there is special structure. We s...

Given a distribution of pebbles on the vertices of a graph G, a pebbling move takes two pebbles from one vertex and puts one on a neighboring vertex. The pebbling number (G) is th...

In this paper we consider the problem of ^-partitioning the nodes of a graph with capacity restrictions on the sum of the node weights in each subset of the partition, and the obje...

For a fixed graph H, let Ret(H) denote the problem of deciding whether a given input graph is retractable to H. We classify the complexity of Ret(H) when H is a graph (with loops ...
We show that a random walk on a tournament on n vertices finds either a sink or a 3-cycle in expected time O √ n · log n · log∗ n , that is, sublinear both in the size of th...
