Chattez avec Graph Search

Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.

AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.

Scaling a Reliable Distributed System

Alexandre David Olivier Maurer

We consider the problem of reliably connecting an arbitrarily large set of computers (nodes) with communication channels. Reliability means here the ability, for any two nodes, to remain connected (i.e., their ability to communicate) with probability at le ...

On vertices and facets of combinatorial 2-level polytopes

Yuri Faenza, Manuel Francesco Aprile, Alfonso Bolívar Cevallos Manzano

2-level polytopes naturally appear in several areas of mathematics, including combinatorial optimization, polyhedral combinatorics, communication complexity, and statistics. We investigate upper bounds on the product of the number of facets and the number ...

RENORMALIZATION AND BLOW-UP FOR WAVE MAPS FROM S-2 x R TO S-2

Sohrab Mirshams Shahshahani

We construct a one parameter family of finite time blow-ups to the co-rotational wave maps problem from S-2 x R to S-2, parameterized by nu is an element of (1/2, 1]. The longitudinal function u(t, alpha) which is the main object of study will be obtained ...

A Precise Threshold For Quasi-Ramsey Numbers

János Pach

We consider the variation of Ramsey numbers introduced by Erdos and Pach [J. Graph Theory, 7 (1983), pp. 137-147], where instead of seeking complete or independent sets we only seek a t-homogeneous set, a vertex subset that induces a subgraph of minimum de ...

Enhanced Matrix Completion with Manifold Learning

Pierre Vandergheynst, Michael Bronstein, Xavier Bresson, Vasilis Kalofolias

We study the problem of matrix completion when infor- mation about row or column proximities is available, in the form of weighted graphs. The problem can be formulated as the optimization of a convex function that can be solved efficiently using the alter ...

Approximating ATSP by Relaxing Connectivity

Ola Nils Anders Svensson

The standard LP relaxation of the asymmetric traveling salesman problem has been conjectured to have a constant integrality gap in the metric case. We prove this conjecture when restricted to shortest path metrics of node-weighted digraphs. Our arguments a ...

From Compact Semi-Toric Systems To Hamiltonian S-1-Spaces

Silvia Sabatini

We show how any labeled convex polygon associated to a compact semi-toric system, as de fined by V (u) over tilde Ngoc, determines Karshon's labeled directed graph which classifies the underlying Hamiltonian S-1-space up to isomorphism. Then we characteriz ...

Detecting nanoscale vibrations as signature of life

Giovanni Dietler, Sandor Kasas, Giovanni Longo, Francesco Simone Ruggeri, Petar Stupar

The existence of life in extreme conditions, in particular in extraterrestrial environments, is certainly one of the most intriguing scientific questions of our time. In this report, we demonstrate the use of an innovative nanoscale motion sensor in life-s ...

Node-weighted network design and maximum sub-determinants

Carsten Moldenhauer

We consider the Node-weighted Steiner Forest problem on planar graphs. Demaine et al. showed that a generic primal-dual algorithm gives a 6-approximation. We present two different proofs of an approximation factor of~

Applications of a New Separator Theorem for String Graphs

János Pach

An intersection graph of curves in the plane is called a string graph. Matousek almost completely settled a conjecture of the authors by showing that every string graph with m edges admits a vertex separator of size O(root m log m). In the present note, th ...
