A Better Algorithm for Random k-SAT
Let Φ be a uniformly distributed random k-SAT formula with n variables and m clauses. We present a polynomial time algorithm that finds a satisfying assignment of Φ with high p...

Efficient Methods for Selfish Network Design
Intuitively, Braess's paradox states that destroying a part of a network may improve the common latency of selfish flows at Nash equilibrium. Such a paradox is a pervasive phe...

Improved Bounds for Flow Shop Scheduling
We resolve an open question raised by Feige & Scheideler by showing that the best known approximation algorithm for flow shops is essentially tight with respect to the used low...

The Theory of Stabilisation Monoids and Regular Cost Functions
Abstract. We introduce the notion of regular cost functions: a quantitative extension to the standard theory of regular languages. We provide equivalent characterisations of this n...

The Complexity of Nash Equilibria in Simple Stochastic Multiplayer Games
We analyse the computational complexity of finding Nash equilibria in simple stochastic multiplayer games. We show that restricting the search space to equilibria whose payoffs fal...
