Pure Nash equilibria: complete characterization of hard and easy graphical games
We consider the computational complexity of pure Nash equilibria in graphical games. It is known that the problem is NP-complete in general, but tractable (i.e., in P) for special...

Can you beat treewidth?
: It is well-known that constraint satisfaction problems (CSP) over an unbounded domain can be solved in time nO(k) if the treewidth of the primal graph of the instance is at most ...

Dedicated Scheduling of Biprocessor Tasks to Minimize Mean Flow Time
Abstract. This paper investigates the complexity of scheduling biprocessor tasks on dedicated processors to minimize mean flow time. Since the general problem is strongly NP-hard,...

Algebrization: A New Barrier in Complexity Theory
Any proof of P = NP will have to overcome two barriers: relativization and natural proofs. Yet over the last decade, we have seen circuit lower bounds (for example, that PP does n...

Range Queries in Trie-Structured Overlays
Among the open problems in P2P systems, support for non-trivial search predicates, standardized query languages, distributed query processing, query load balancing, and quality of...
