Minimizing Convex Functions with Rational Minimizers [PDF]
Journal of the ACM, 2022 Given a separation oracle SO for a convex function f defined on ℝ n that has an integral minimizer inside a box with radius R , we show how to find an exact minimizer of f using at most

Minimal and Hyper-Minimal Biautomata [PDF]
International Journal of Foundations of Computer Science, 2014 We compare deterministic finite automata (DFAs) and biautomata under the following two aspects: structural similarities between minimal and hyper-minimal automata, and computational complexity of the minimization and hyper-minimization problem.

Minimizers That Are Not Also Relaxed Minimizers [PDF]
SIAM Journal on Control and Optimization, 2014 Relaxation is a widely used regularization procedure in optimal control, involving the replacement of velocity sets by their convex hulls, to ensure the existence of a minimizer. It can be an important step in the construction of suboptimal controls for the original, unrelaxed, optimal control problem (which may not have a minimizer), based on ...

Minimal nets and minimal minimal surfaces [PDF]
Acta Crystallographica Section A Foundations of Crystallography, 2013 The 3-periodic nets of genus 3 (`minimal nets') are reviewed and their symmetries re-examined. Although they are all crystallographic, seven of the 15 only have maximum-symmetry embeddings if some links are allowed to have zero length. The connection between the minimal nets and the genus-3 zero-mean-curvature surfaces (`minimal minimal' surfaces) is ...

Journal of Cardiac Surgery, 2020 Minimally Invasive Aortic Valve Replacement is not just a metric of the incision, but rather a holistic approach to minimize the surgical trauma: the technique should reproduce the gold-standard conventional procedure in terms of safety, effectiveness and operative times through a small and different incision.

International Journal of Algebra and Computation, 2005 We combine ideas of Scott and Swarup on good position for almost invariant subsets of a group with ideas of Sageev on constructing cubings from such sets. We construct cubings which are more canonical than in Sageev's original construction. We also show that almost invariant sets can be chosen to be in very good position.

Contexts, non-specificity, and minimalism
Manuscrito, 2014 Atlas (2007) argues that semantic minimalism (as defended by Cappelen & Lepore 2005) fails because it cannot deal with semantic non-specificity. I argue that thereis a plausible version of minimalism-viz., situated minimalism-which doesn't succumb to the

Applying Minimalism in the Real World: Results From a Workshop [PDF]
VAKKI Publications, 2020 Minimalism is a user-centered, contextual and goal-oriented approach to technical communication originally developed by John M. Carroll (1990). In minimalism, the aim is to produce user documentation that focuses on the user’s needs, helps the user ...

Journal of Graph Theory, 2020 AbstractMcCuaig proved a generation theorem for braces, and used it as the principal induction tool to obtain a structural characterization of Pfaffian braces. A brace is minimal if deleting any edge results in a graph that is not a brace. From McCuaig's brace generation theorem, we derive our main theorem that may be viewed as an induction tool for ...

ACM Transactions on Database Systems, 2011 Provenance information has been proved to be very effective in capturing the computational process performed by queries, and has been used extensively as the input to many advanced data management tools (e.g., view maintenance, trust assessment, or query answering in probabilistic databases). We observe here that while different (
