We study the bandwidth allocation problem Maximize U(x), subject to Ax ≤ c; x ≥ 0 where U is a utility function, x is a bandwidth allocation vector, and Ax ≤ c represent the...
We consider statistical mechanics systems defined on a set with some symmetry properties (namely, the set admits an action by a group, which is finitely generated and residually fi...
