Raising NP lower bounds to parallel NP lower bounds [PDF]

open access: yesACM SIGACT News, 1997
This issue's column surveys recent progress in raising NP-hardness lower bounds to parallel NP lower bounds. Complexity theorists will learn that Lewis Carroll (unbeknownst to himself) was a fellow complexity theorist. So that readers specializing in algorithms don't feel left out, let me mention that they are in even better company.

Lower Bounds for QBFs of Bounded Treewidth [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 35th Annual ACM/IEEE Symposium on Logic in Computer Science, 2020
The problem of deciding the validity (QSAT) of quantified Boolean formulas (QBF) is a vivid research area in both theory and practice. In the field of parameterized algorithmics, the well-studied graph measure treewidth turned out to be a successful parameter.

Almost Periodic Solutions of First-Order Ordinary Differential Equations

open access: yesMathematics, 2018
Approaches to estimate the number of almost periodic solutions of ordinary differential equations are considered. Conditions that allow determination for both upper and lower bounds for these solutions are found.

Solving the Distributed Permutation Flow-Shop Scheduling Problem Using Constrained Programming

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
The permutation flow-shop scheduling problem is a classical problem in scheduling that aims at identifying the optimal sequence of jobs that should be processed in a number of machines in an effort to minimize makespan or some other performance criterion.

DLP in semigroups: Algorithms and lower bounds

open access: yesJournal of Mathematical Cryptology, 2022
The discrete logarithm problem (DLP) in semigroups has attracted some interests and serves as the foundation of many cryptographic schemes. In this work, we study algorithms and lower bounds for DLP in semigroups.

Lower Bounds and Upper Bounds for MaxSAT [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This paper presents several ways to compute lower and upperbounds for MaxSAT based on calling a complete SAT solver. Preliminary results indicate that (i) the bounds are of high quality, (ii) the bounds can boost the search of MaxSAT solvers on some benchmarks, and (iii) the upper bounds computed by a Stochastic Local Search procedure (SLS) can be ...

A lower bound for primality

open access: yesProceedings. Fourteenth Annual IEEE Conference on Computational Complexity (Formerly: Structure in Complexity Theory Conference) (Cat.No.99CB36317), 2001
The main result of the paper is that primality testing, gcd computation and square-free computation is not in \(AC^0\), that is, can not be accomplished by constant depth, polynomial-size circuits of AND, OR and NOT gates. The technique used by the authors is to reduce the functions that have circuit lower bound known to divisibility and then, using a ...

Lower Bounds on the Redundancy of Huffman Codes With Known and Unknown Probabilities

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
In this paper, we provide a method to obtain tight lower bounds on the minimum redundancy achievable by a Huffman code when the probability distribution underlying an alphabet is only partially known.
