On hypergraph Lagrangians [PDF]
It is conjectured by Frankl and F\"uredi that the $r$-uniform hypergraph with $m$ edges formed by taking the first $m$ sets in the colex ordering of ${\mathbb N}^{(r)}$ has the largest Lagrangian of all $r$-uniform hypergraphs with $m$ edges in \cite{FF}.

Uncontrolled inexact information within bundle methods
We consider convex non-smooth optimization problems where additional information with uncontrolled accuracy is readily available. It is often the case when the objective function is itself the output of an optimization solver, as for large-scale energy ...

The generalized minimum spanning tree polytope and related polytopes [PDF]
The Generalized Minimum Spanning Tree problem denoted by GMST is a variant of the classical Minimum Spanning Tree problem in which nodes are partitioned into clusters and the problem calls for a minimum cost tree spanning at least one node from each ...

Evaluating performance of image segmentation criteria and techniques
The image segmentation problem is to delineate, or segment, a salient feature in an image. As such, this is a bipartition problem with the goal of separating the foreground from the background. An NP-hard optimization problem, the Normalized Cut problem,

Approximating the Minimum Equivalent Digraph
The MEG (minimum equivalent graph) problem is, given a directed graph, to find a small subset of the edges that maintains all reachability relations between nodes. The problem is NP-hard.

Core group placement: allocation and provisioning of heterogeneous resources
We present a theoretical and empirical study on a recently introduced combinatorial optimization problem, namely core group placement problem. The problem arises from real-world business requirements as part of resource allocation in cloud management. In

Integer Points in Knapsack Polytopes and s-covering Radius [PDF]
Given an integer matrix A satisfying certain regularity assumptions, we consider for a positive integer s the set F_s(A) of all integer vectors b such that the associated knapsack polytope P(A,b)={x: Ax=b, x non-negative} contains at least s integer ...
