The agreement distance of unrooted phylogenetic networks [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2020
A rearrangement operation makes a small graph-theoretical change to a phylogenetic network to transform it into another one. For unrooted phylogenetic trees and networks, popular rearrangement operations are tree bisection and reconnection (TBR) and ...

Bounding the Number of Minimal Transversals in Tripartite 3-Uniform Hypergraphs [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2023
We focus on the maximum number of minimal transversals in 3-partite 3-uniform hypergraphs on n vertices. Those hypergraphs (and their minimal transversals) are commonly found in database applications.

Stable gonality is computable [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2019
Stable gonality is a multigraph parameter that measures the complexity of a graph. It is defined using maps to trees. Those maps, in some sense, divide the edges equally over the edges of the tree; stable gonality asks for the map with the minimum number

Taking-and-merging games as rewrite games [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2020
This work is a contribution to the study of rewrite games. Positions are finite words, and the possible moves are defined by a finite number of local rewriting rules.

The Principle of Mathematical Induction: Applications in Physical Optics

open access: yesJournal of Applied Mathematics, 2022
The bare rudiments of the principle of mathematical induction as a method of proof date back to ancient times. In the contemporary university milieu, the demonstrative scheme is taught as part of a course in discrete mathematics, set theory, number ...

The agreement distance of rooted phylogenetic networks [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2019
The minimal number of rooted subtree prune and regraft (rSPR) operations needed to transform one phylogenetic tree into another one induces a metric on phylogenetic trees - the rSPR-distance.

The Recurrence Relations in Teaching Students of Informatics

open access: yesInformatics in Education, 2010
The topic ``Recurrence relations'' and its place in teaching students of Informatics is discussed in this paper. We represent many arguments about the importance, the necessity and the benefit of studying this subject by Informatics students.

On the existence of block-transitive combinatorial designs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Block-transitive Steiner $t$-designs form a central part of the study of highly symmetric combinatorial configurations at the interface of several disciplines, including group theory, geometry, combinatorics, coding and information theory, and ...

Counting descents, rises, and levels, with prescribed first element, in words [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Recently, Kitaev and Remmel [Classifying descents according to parity, Annals of Combinatorics, to appear 2007] refined the well-known permutation statistic ``descent'' by fixing parity of one of the descent's numbers. Results in that paper were extended

Towards an Algebra for Cascade Effects [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2017
We introduce a new class of (dynamical) systems that inherently capture cascading effects (viewed as consequential effects) and are naturally amenable to combinations.
