The Straight-Line RAC Drawing Problem is NP-Hard
A RAC drawing of a graph is a polyline drawing in which every pair of crossing edges intersects at right angle. In this paper, we focus on straight-line RAC drawings and demonstrate an infinite class of graphs with unique RAC combinatorial embedding.

Complexity of Planar Graph Orientation Consistency, Promise-Inference, and Uniqueness, with Applications to Minesweeper Variants [PDF]
We study three problems related to the computational complexity of the popular game Minesweeper. The first is consistency: given a set of clues, is there any arrangement of mines that satisfies it? This problem has been known to be NP-complete since 2000

Planar Embeddings of Graphs with Specified Edge Lengths
We consider the problem of finding a planar straight-line embedding of a graph with a prescribed Euclidean length on every edge. There has been substantial previous work on the problem without the planarity restrictions, which has close connections to ...

On the (Non) NP-Hardness of Computing Circuit Complexity [PDF]
The Minimum Circuit Size Problem (MCSP) is: given the truth table of a Boolean function f and a size parameter k, is the circuit complexity of f at most k?

NP-Hardness of Approximating Meta-Complexity: A Cryptographic Approach [PDF]
It is a long-standing open problem whether the Minimum Circuit Size Problem ($\mathrm{MCSP}$) and related meta-complexity problems are NP-complete. Even for the rare cases where the NP-hardness of meta-complexity problems are known, we only know very ...

Today, facility location planning primarily pertains to the long-term strategic and operational decision-making of large public and private organizations, and the significant costs associated with facility location, construction, and operation have ...

Haskell-style overloading is NP-hard [PDF]
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 ...

Easier Ways to Prove Counting Hard: A Dichotomy for Generalized #SAT, Applied to Constraint Graphs [PDF]
To prove #P-hardness, a single-call reduction from #2SAT needs a clause gadget to have exactly the same number of solutions for all satisfying assignments - no matter how many and which literals satisfy the clause. In this paper, we relax this condition,

Complexity issues for the symmetric interval eigenvalue problem
We study the problem of computing the maximal and minimal possible eigenvalues of a symmetric matrix when the matrix entries vary within compact intervals. In particular, we focus on computational complexity of determining these extremal eigenvalues with
