On the Hierarchy Classes of Finite Ultrametric Automata
2015
This paper explores the language classes that arise with respect to the head count of a finite ultrametric automaton. First we prove that in the one-way setting there is a language that can be recognized by a one-head ultrametric finite automaton and cannot be recognized by any k-head non-deterministic finite automaton. Then we prove that in the two-way setting the class of languages recognized by ultrametric finite k-head automata is a proper subclass of the class of languages recognized by (k + 1)-head automata. Ultrametric finite automata are similar to probabilistic and quantum automata and have only just recently been introduced by Freivalds. We introduce ultrametric Turing machines an…
Degree sequences of highly irregular graphs
1997
AbstractWe call a simple graph highly irregular if each of its vertices is adjacent only to vertices with distinct degrees. In this paper we examine the degree sequences of highly irregular graphs. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a sequence of positive integers to be the degree sequence of a highly irregular graph.

Summary This article formalizes different variants of the complement graph in the Mizar system [3], based on the formalization of graphs in [6].
Padding and the expressive power of existential second-order logics
1998
Padding techniques are well-known from Computational Complexity Theory. Here, an analogous concept is considered in the context of existential second-order logics. Informally, a graph H is a padded version of a graph G, if H consists of an isomorphic copy of G and some isolated vertices. A set A of graphs is called weakly expressible by a formula ϕ in the presence of padding, if ϕ is able to distinguish between (sufficiently) padded versions of graphs from A and padded versions of graphs that are not in A.
Span-Program-Based Quantum Algorithms for Graph Bipartiteness and Connectivity
2016
Span program is a linear-algebraic model of computation which can be used to design quantum algorithms. For any Boolean function there exists a span program that leads to a quantum algorithm with optimal quantum query complexity. In general, finding such span programs is not an easy task. In this work, given a query access to the adjacency matrix of a simple graph G with n vertices, we provide two new span-program-based quantum algorithms:an algorithm for testing if the graph is bipartite that uses $$On\sqrt{n}$$ quantum queries;an algorithm for testing if the graph is connected that uses $$On\sqrt{n}$$ quantum queries.

Summary In this article the finiteness of graphs is refined and the minimal and maximal degree of graphs are formalized in the Mizar system [3], based on the formalization of graphs in [4].
Minimal forbidden words and symbolic dynamics
1996
We introduce a new complexity measure of a factorial formal language L: the growth rate of the set of minimal forbidden words. We prove some combinatorial properties of minimal forbidden words. As main result we prove that the growth rate of the set of minimal forbidden words for L is a topological invariant of the dynamical system defined by L.
Optimization procedures for the bipartite unconstrained 0-1 quadratic programming problem
2014
The bipartite unconstrained 0-1 quadratic programming problem (BQP) is a difficult combinatorial problem defined on a complete graph that consists of selecting a subgraph that maximizes the sum of the weights associated with the chosen vertices and the edges that connect them. The problem has appeared under several different names in the literature, including maximum weight induced subgraph, maximum weight biclique, matrix factorization and maximum cut on bipartite graphs. There are only two unpublished works (technical reports) where heuristic approaches are tested on BQP instances. Our goal is to combine straightforward search elements to balance diversification and intensification in bot…

The mixed general routing polyhedron
2003
[EN] In Arc Routing Problems, ARPs, the aim is to find on a graph a minimum cost traversal satisfying some conditions related to the links of the graph. Due to restrictions to traverse some streets in a specified way, most applications of ARPs must be modeled with a mixed graph. Although several exact algorithms have been proposed, no polyhedral investigations have been done for ARPs on a mixed graph. In this paper we deal with the Mixed General Routing Problem which consists of finding a minimum cost traversal of a given link subset and a given vertex subset of a mixed graph. A formulation is given that uses only one variable for each link (edge or arc) of the graph. Some properties of the…
