Reducing the rank of a matroid [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2015
We consider the rank reduction problem for matroids: Given a matroid $M$ and an integer $k$, find a minimum size subset of elements of $M$ whose removal reduces the rank of $M$ by at least $k$. When $M$ is a graphical matroid this problem is the minimum $

A Polynomial-Time Reduction from the 3SAT Problem to the Generalized String Puzzle Problem

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2012
A disentanglement puzzle consists of mechanically interlinked pieces, and the puzzle is solved by disentangling one piece from another set of pieces. A string puzzle consists of strings entangled with one or more wooden pieces.

Haskell-style overloading is NP-hard [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of 1994 IEEE International Conference on Computer Languages (ICCL'94), 2002
Extensions of the ML type system, based on constrained type schemes, have been proposed for languages with overloading. Type inference in these systems requires solving the following satisfiability problem. Given a set of type assumptions C over finite types and a type basis A, is there is a substitution S that satisfies C in that A implies that CS is ...

Improved lower bound for the complexity of unique shortest vector problem

open access: yesCybersecurity, 2023
Unique shortest vector problem (uSVP) plays an important role in lattice based cryptography. Many cryptographic schemes based their security on it. For the cofidence of those applications, it is essential to clarify the complexity of uSVP with different ...

Exploiting bounded signal flow for graph orientation based on cause-effect pairs

open access: yesAlgorithms for Molecular Biology, 2011
Background We consider the following problem: Given an undirected network and a set of sender-receiver pairs, direct all edges such that the maximum number of "signal flows" defined by the pairs can be routed respecting edge directions.

An efficient rank based approach for closest string and closest substring. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
This paper aims to present a new genetic approach that uses rank distance for solving two known NP-hard problems, and to compare rank distance with other distance measures for strings.

Deciding Irreducibility/Indecomposability of Feedback Shift Registers Is NP-Hard

open access: yesIET Information Security
Feedback shift registers (FSRs) are used as a fundamental component in electronics and confidential communication. A FSR f is said to be reducible if all the output sequences of another FSR g can also be generated by f and the FSR g costs less memory ...
