On the Equilibria of Alternating Move Games
We consider computational aspects of alternating move games, repeated games in which players take actions at alternating time steps rather than playing simultaneously. We show tha...

Finding Independent Sets in Unions of Perfect Graphs
ABSTRACT. The maximum independent set problem (MAXIS) on general graphs is known to be NPhard to approximate within a factor of n1-, for any > 0. However, there are many "...

Dense Subgraphs with Restrictions and Applications to Gene Annotation Graphs
Abstract. In this paper, we focus on finding complex annotation patterns representing novel and interesting hypotheses from gene annotation data. We define a generalization of th...

On the Expressive Power of Planar Perfect Matching and Permanents of Bounded Treewidth Matrices
Valiant introduced some 25 years ago an algebraic model of computation along with the complexity classes VP and VNP, which can be viewed as analogues of the classical classes P and...

Limitations of Quantum Advice and One-Way Communication
Abstract: Although a quantum state requires exponentially many classical bits to describe, the laws of quantum mechanics impose severe restrictions on how that state can be accesse...
