The Tandem Duplication Distance is NP-hard

open access: yesCoRR, 2019
In computational biology, tandem duplication is an important biological phenomenon which can occur either at the genome or at the DNA level. A tandem duplication takes a copy of a genome segment and inserts it right after the segment - this can be represented as the string operation $AXB \Rightarrow AXXB$.

NP-completeness of Bipartite Exact Cut

open access: yes, 2019
\textsc{Max-Cut} is a well-known NP-complete problem in which, given a graph $G$ and an integer $k$, one needs to determine whether there exists a cut of size at least $k$ in $G$. An exact version is likewise asking whether $G$ has a cut of size exactly $

On isolating points using unit disks

open access: yesJournal of Computational Geometry, 2016
Given a set of points in the plane and a set of disks (that we think of as wireless sensors) which separate the points, we consider the problem of selecting a minimum subset of the disks such that any path between any pair of points is intersected by at ...

Stiefel optimization is NP-hard

open access: yesOptimization Letters
Abstract We show that linearly constrained linear optimization over a Stiefel or Grassmann manifold is NP-hard in general. We show that the same is true for unconstrained quadratic optimization over a Stiefel manifold. We will show that unless $$\textrm{P}=\textrm{NP}$$

Unique Perfect Phylogeny Is NP-Hard [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We answer, in the affirmative, the following question proposed by Mike Steel as a $100 challenge: "Is the following problem NP-hard? Given a ternary phylogenetic X-tree T and a collection Q of quartet subtrees on X, is T the only tree that displays Q ?"

Restricted optimal pebbling is NP-hard

open access: yesDiscrete Applied Mathematics, 2023
Consider a distribution of pebbles on a graph. A pebbling move removes two pebbles from a vertex and place one at an adjacent vertex. A vertex is reachable under a pebble distribution if it has a pebble after the application of a sequence of pebbling moves. A pebble distribution is solvable if each vertex is reachable under it.

Simultaneously resettable zero knowledge protocol in Public Key model

open access: yesCybersecurity
In this paper, we construct a 6-round simultaneously resettable sound resettable $$(T, \epsilon )$$ ( T , ϵ ) -zero knowledge protocol for $$\mathsf {NP \cap coNP}$$ NP ∩ coNP in the Public Key model under standard assumptions, comparing with the 27 ...
