On the Computational Complexity of Optimization Convex Covering Problems of Graphs [PDF]

open access: yesComputer Science Journal of Moldova, 2020
In this paper we present further studies of convex covers and convex partitions of graphs. Let $G$ be a finite simple graph. A set of vertices $S$ of $G$ is convex if all vertices lying on a shortest path between any pair of vertices of $S$ are in $S ...

Restrained Italian reinforcement number in graphs

open access: yesAKCE International Journal of Graphs and Combinatorics, 2023
A restrained Italian dominating function (RID-function) on a graph [Formula: see text] is a function [Formula: see text] satisfying: (i) [Formula: see text] for every vertex [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is the ...

On Basing One-way Permutations on NP-hard Problems under Quantum Reductions [PDF]

open access: yesQuantum, 2020
A fundamental pursuit in complexity theory concerns reducing worst-case problems to average-case problems. There exist complexity classes such as PSPACE that admit worst-case to average-case reductions.

Reoptimization of NP-Hard Problems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
A reoptimization problem, given two similar instances of an optimization problem and a good solution to the first instance, asks for a solution to the second. In this paper we propose general approximation algorithms applicable to a wide class of reoptimization problems.

NP-hard problems are not in BQP

open access: yesCoRR, 2023
Grover's algorithm can solve NP-complete problems on quantum computers faster than all the known algorithms on classical computers. However, Grover's algorithm still needs exponential time. Due to the BBBV theorem, Grover's algorithm is optimal for searches in the domain of a function, when the function is used as a black box.

Tetris with Few Piece Types [PDF]

open access: yes
We prove NP-hardness and #P-hardness of Tetris clearing (clearing an initial board using a given sequence of pieces) with the Super Rotation System (SRS), even when the pieces are limited to any two of the seven Tetris piece types.

Identification and signatures based on NP-hard problems of indefinite quadratic forms

open access: yesJournal of Mathematical Cryptology, 2008
We prove NP-hardness of equivalence and representation problems of quadratic forms under probabilistic reductions, in particular for indefinite, ternary quadratic forms with integer coefficients.

Wasserstein Barycenters Are NP-Hard to Compute

open access: yesSIAM Journal on Mathematics of Data Science, 2022
Computing Wasserstein barycenters (a.k.a. Optimal Transport barycenters) is a fundamental problem in geometry which has recently attracted considerable attention due to many applications in data science. While there exist polynomial-time algorithms in any fixed dimension, all known running times suffer exponentially in the dimension.

Improved hardness amplification in NP [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We study the problem of hardness amplification in NP. We prove that if there is a balanced function in NP such that any circuit of size s(n)=2Ω(n) fails to compute it on a 1/poly(n) fraction of inputs, then there is a function in NP such that any circuit
