If Alice has x, y, Bob has x, z and Carol has y, z can they determine if x + y + z = N? They can if (say) Alice broadcasts x to Bob and Carol; can they do better? Chandra, Furst, a...
Abstract. We improve on some recent results on lower bounds for conversion problems for regular expressions. In particular we consider the conversion of planar deterministic finite...
Abstract. A well studied and difficult class of scheduling problems concerns parallel machines and precedence constraints. In order to model more realistic situations, we consider ...
We present a syntactic scheme for translating future-time LTL bounded model checking problems into propositional satisfiability problems. The scheme is similar in principle to th...
We present several results on the complexity of various forms of Sperner’s Lemma in the black-box model of computing. We give a deterministic algorithm for Sperner problems over ...
