A loopless algorithm for generating the permutations of a multiset

2003

AbstractMany combinatorial structures can be constructed from simpler components. For example, a permutation can be constructed from cycles, or a Motzkin word from a Dyck word and a combination. In this paper we present a constructor for combinatorial structures, called shuffle on trajectories (defined previously in a non-combinatorial context), and we show how this constructor enables us to obtain a new loopless generating algorithm for multiset permutations from similar results for simpler objects.

The λ-Error Order in Multivariate Interpolation

2005

The aim of this article is to introduce and to study a generalization of the error order of interpolation, named λ – error order of interpolation. This generalization makes possible a deeper analysis of the error in the interpolation process. We derived the general form of the λ – error order of interpolation and then we applied it for many choices of the functional λ.

Weighted-Power p Nonlinear Subdivision Schemes

2012

In this paper we present and analyze a generalization of the Powerp subdivision schemes proposed in [3,12]. The Weighted-Powerp schemes are based on a harmonic weighted version of the Power<emp average considered in [12], and their development is motivated by the desire to generalize the nonlinear analysis in [3,5] to interpolatory subdivision schemes with higher than second order accuracy.

Deciding reachability for planar multi-polynomial systems

1996

In this paper we investigate the decidability of the reachability problem for planar non-linear hybrid systems. A planar hybrid system has the property that its state space corresponds to the standard Euclidean plane, which is partitioned into a finite number of (polyhedral) regions. To each of these regions is assigned some vector field which governs the dynamical behaviour of the system within this region. We prove the decidability of point to point and region to region reachability problems for planar hybrid systems for the case when trajectories within the regions can be described by polynomials of arbitrary degree.

Highly irregular graphs with extreme numbers of edges

1997

Abstract A simple connected graph is highly irregular if each of its vertices is adjacent only to vertices with distinct degrees. In this paper we find: (1) the greatest number of edges of a highly irregular graph with n vertices, where n is an odd integer (for n even this number is given in [1]), (2) the smallest number of edges of a highly irregular graph of given order.

An exact and efficient approach for computing a cell in an arrangement of quadrics

2006

AbstractWe present an approach for the exact and efficient computation of a cell in an arrangement of quadric surfaces. All calculations are based on exact rational algebraic methods and provide the correct mathematical results in all, even degenerate, cases. By projection, the spatial problem is reduced to the one of computing planar arrangements of algebraic curves. We succeed in locating all event points in these arrangements, including tangential intersections and singular points. By introducing an additional curve, which we call the Jacobi curve, we are able to find non-singular tangential intersections. We show that the coordinates of the singular points in our special projected plana…

Polynomial growth of the codimensions: a characterization

2009

Let A A be a not necessarily associative algebra over a field of characteristic zero. Here we characterize the T-ideal of identities of A A in case the corresponding sequence of codimensions is polynomially bounded.

Tree automata, tree decomposition and hyperedge replacement

2005

Recent results concerning efficient solvability of graph problems on graphs with bounded tree-width and decidability of graph properties for hyperedge-replacement graph grammars are systematised by showing how they can be derived from recognisability of corresponding tree classes by finite tree automata, using only well-known techniques from tree-automata theory.

Estimating the length of minimal spanning trees in compression of files

1984

Compression of a formatted file by a minimal spanning tree (MST) is studied. Here the records of the file are considered as the nodes of a weighted undirected graph. Each record pair is connected in the graph and the corresponding arc is weighted by the sum of field lengths of those fields which differ in the two records. The actual compression is made by constructing an MST of the graph and by storing it in an economic way to preserve the information of the file. The length of the MST is a useful measure in the estimation of the power of the compression. In the paper we study upper bounds of this length, especially in the case where the field lengths of the different fields may vary. The u…

Frequency Assignment and Multicoloring Powers of Square and Triangular Meshes

2005

The static frequency assignment problem on cellular networks can be abstracted as a multicoloring problem on a weighted graph, where each vertex of the graph is a base station in the network, and the weight associated with each vertex represents the number of calls to be served at the vertex. The edges of the graph model interference constraints for frequencies assigned to neighboring stations. In this paper, we first propose an algorithm to multicolor any weighted planar graph with at most $\frac{11}{4}W$ colors, where W denotes the weighted clique number. Next, we present a polynomial time approximation algorithm which garantees at most 2W colors for multicoloring a power square mesh. Fur…
