Polyhedral conditions for the nonexistence of the MLE for hierarchical log-linear models
We provide a polyhedral description of the conditions for the existence of the maximum likelihood estimate (MLE) for a hierarchical log-linear model. The MLE exists if and only if...

Properties of state spaces and their applications
Explicit model checking algorithms explore the full state space of a system. State spaces are usually treated as directed graphs without any specific features. We gather a large co...
