Computational Complexity in Additive Hedonic Games [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We investigate the computational complexity of several decision problems in hedonic coalition formation games and demonstrate that attaining stability in such games remains NP-hard even when they are additive.

Nonuniform Reductions and NP-Completeness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Nonuniformity is a central concept in computational complexity with powerful connections to circuit complexity and randomness. Nonuniform reductions have been used to study the isomorphism conjecture for NP and completeness for larger complexity classes.

The Subset Sum Problem: Reducing Time Complexity of NP-Completeness with Quantum Search

open access: yesUndergraduate Journal of Mathematical Modeling: One + Two, 2012
The Subset Sum Problem is a member of the NP-complete class, so no known polynomial time algorithm exists for it. Although there are polynomial time approximations and heuristics, these are not always acceptable, yet exact-solution algorithms are ...

AN NP-COMPLETE FRAGMENT OF LTL [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Foundations of Computer Science, 2004
A fragment of linear time temporal logic (LTL) is presented. It is proved that the satisfiability problem for this fragment is NP-complete. The fragment is larger than previously known NP-complete fragments. It is obtained by prohibiting the use of until operator and requiring to use only next operators indexed by a letter.

Total Domination, Connected Vertex Cover and Steiner Tree with Conflicts [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2017
Total dominating set, connected vertex cover and Steiner tree are well-known graph problems. Despite the fact that they are NP-complete to optimize, it is easy (even trivial) to find solutions, regardless of their size.

NP-completeness and One Polynomial Subclass of the Two-Step Graph Colouring Problem

open access: yesМоделирование и анализ информационных систем, 2019
In this paper, we study the two-step colouring problem for an undirected connected graph. It is required to colour the graph in a given number of colours in a way, when no pair of vertices has the same colour, if these vertices are at a distance of 1 or ...

Two railway circuits: a universal circuit and an NP-difficult one [PDF]

open access: yesComputer Science Journal of Moldova, 2001
In this paper, first we construct a railway circuit based on three types of switches and on crossings. Such a circuit is able to simulate the computation of any Turing machine, in particular of a universal one. That result was proved by Ian Stewart in [3]

A Note on Polynomial Algorithm for Cost Coloring of Bipartite Graphs with Δ ≤ 4

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2020
In the note we consider vertex coloring of a graph in which each color has an associated cost which is incurred each time the color is assigned to a vertex. The cost of coloring is the sum of costs incurred at each vertex.

HIROIMONO is NP-complete

open access: yesBRICS Report Series, 2007
In a Hiroimono puzzle, one must collect a set of stones from a square grid, moving along grid lines, picking up stones as one encounters them, and changing direction only when one picks up a stone. We show that deciding the solvability of such puzzles is NP-complete.
