The next technological revolution will be interwoven to the proliferation of intelligent systems. As we bridge the gap between physical and cyber worlds, we will give rise to large-scale, multi-agent based technologies. A key challenge that cities of the f ...
We consider integer programming problems in standard form max{c(T)x : Ax = b, x >= 0, x is an element of Z(n)} where A is an element of Z(mxn), b is an element of Z(m), and c is an element of Z(n). We show that such an integer program can be solved in time ...
In a seminal work, Micciancio and Voulgaris (SIAM J Comput 42(3):1364-1391, 2013) described a deterministic single-exponential time algorithm for the closest vector problem (CVP) on lattices. It is based on the computation of the Voronoi cell of the given ...
Matrix (or operator) recovery from linear measurements is a well-studied problem. However, there are situations where only bilinear or quadratic measurements are available. A bilinear or quadratic problem can easily be transformed into a linear one, but it ...
For a set X of integer points in a polyhedron, the smallest number of facets of any polyhedron whose set of integer points coincides with X is called the relaxation complexity rc(X). This parameter was introduced by Kaibel & Weltge (2015) and captures the ...
We characterize the irreducible polynomials that occur as the characteristic polynomial of an automorphism of an even unimodular lattice of a given signature, generalizing a theorem of Gross and McMullen. As part of the proof, we give a general criterion i ...
In the restricted Santa Claus problem we are given resources R and players P. Every resource j is an element of R. has a value v(j) and every player i is an element of P desires a set of resources R(i). We are interested in distributing the resources to pl ...
We find an optimal upper bound on the volume of the John ellipsoid of a k-dimensional section of the n-dimensional cube, and an optimal lower bound on the volume of the Lowner ellipsoid of a projection of the n-dimensional cross-polytope onto a k-dimension ...
We study the search problem class PPA_q defined as a modulo-q analog of the well-known polynomial parity argument class PPA introduced by Papadimitriou (JCSS 1994). Our first result shows that this class can be characterized in terms of PPA_p for prime p. ...

We consider the fully dynamic bin packing problem, where items arrive and depart in an online fashion and repacking of previously packed items is allowed. The goal is, of course, to minimize both the number of bins used as well as the amount of repacking. ...
