On the computational complexity of periodic scheduling

Thomas Rothvoss

In periodic scheduling jobs arrive regularly and have to be executed on one or several machines or processors. An enormous amount of literature has been published on this topic, e.g. the founding work of Liu & Layland [LL73] is among the top cited computer ...

Network Formulations of Mixed-Integer Programs

Friedrich Eisenbrand, Marco Di Summa

We consider mixed-integer sets described by system of linear inequalities in which the constraint matrix A is totally unimodular; the right-hand side is arbitrary vector; and a subset of the variables is required to be integer. We show that the problem of ...

Tree Projections: Game Characterization and Computational Aspects

Zoltán Miklós

The notion of tree projection provides a natural generalization for various structural decomposition methods, which have been proposed in the literature in order to single out classes of nearly-acyclic (hyper)graphs. In this paper, the mathematical propert ...

2-Selmer groups and the Birch-Swinnerton-Dyer Conjecture for the congruent number curves

Robert Christopher Rhoades

We take an approach toward Counting the number of integers n for which the curve (n),: y(2) = x(3) - n(2)x has 2-Selmer groups of a given size. This question was also discussed in a pair of papers by Roger Heath-Brown. In contrast to earlier work, our anal ...

Linear Arithmetic with Stars

Viktor Kuncak, Ruzica Piskac

We consider an extension of integer linear arithmetic with a “star” operator takes closure under vector addition of the solution set of a linear arithmetic subformula. We show that the satisfiability problem for this extended language remains in NP (and th ...

On the essential dimension of cyclic p-groups

Let p be a prime number, let K be a field of characteristic not p, containing the p-th roots of unity, and let r >= 1 be an integer. We compute the essential dimension of Z/p(r) Z over K (Theorem 4.1). In particular, i) We have edℚ(ℤ/8ℤ)=4, a result which ...

Real-time Delay with Network Coding and Feedback

Christina Fragouli, Lorenzo Keller

We consider the problem of minimizing delay when broadcasting over erasure channels with feedback. A sender wishes to communicate the same set of m messages to several receivers. The sender can broadcast a single message or a combination (encoding) of mess ...

A tutorial on the use of graphs in discrete tomography

Dominique de Werra, Bernard Ries

Starting from the basic image reconstruction problem in discrete tomography some graph theoretical models are proposed. This suggests the study of some variations and extensions of the basic problem. Applications in scheduling and timetabling are described ...

A kilobit special number field sieve factorization

Arjen Lenstra, Thorsten Kleinjung, Dag Arne Osvik

We describe how we reached a new factoring milestone by completing the first special number field sieve factorization of a number having more than 1024 bits, namely the Mersenne number 21039 -1. Although this factorization is orders of magnitude ...

Primality Testing

Kamal Tahiri Jouti

Since the discovery of the utility of the numbers, the human being tried to differentiate them. We decide between them according to whether they are even or odd. Or, according to the fact that they are prime or composite. A natural number n >1 is called a ...
