One-rule semi-Thue systems with loops of length one, two or three
We study deterministic one-way communication complexity of functions with Hankel communication matrices. Some structural properties of such matrices are established and applied to the one-way two-party communication complexity of symmetric Boolean functions. It is shown that the number of required communication bits does not depend on the communication direction, provided that neither direction needs maximum complexity. Moreover, in order to obtain an optimal protocol, it is in any case sufficient...

For a given induced hereditary property 𝓟, a 𝓟-coloring of a graph G is an assignment of one color to each vertex such that the subgraphs induced by each of the color classes have property 𝓟. We consider the effectiveness of on-line 𝓟-coloring algorithms and give the generalizations and extensions of selected results known for on-line proper coloring algorithms. We prove a linear lower bound for the performance guarantee function of any stingy on-line 𝓟-coloring algorithm. In the class of generalized...
We consider numeration systems where the base is a negative integer, or a complex number which is a root of a negative integer. We give parallel algorithms for addition in these numeration systems, from which we derive on-line algorithms realized by finite automata. A general construction relating addition in base β and addition in base βm is given. Results on addition in base , where b is a relative integer, follow. We also show that addition in base the golden ratio is computable by an on-line...
We consider the NP Hard problems of online Bin Covering and Packing while requiring that larger (or longer, in the one dimensional case) items be placed at the bottom of the bins, below smaller (or shorter) items — we call such a version, the LIB version of problems. Bin sizes can be uniform or variable. We look at computational studies for both the Best Fit and Harmonic Fit algorithms for uniform sized bin covering. The Best Fit heuristic for this version of the problem is introduced here. The...

In on-line computation, the instance of the problem dealt is not entirely known from the beginning of the solution process, but it is revealed step-by-step. In this paper we deal with on-line independent set. On-line models studied until now for this problem suppose that the input graph is initially empty and revealed either vertex-by-vertex, or cluster-by-cluster. Here we present a new on-line model quite different to the ones already studied. It assumes that a superset of the final graph is initially...
In the context of a conjecture of Erdős and Gyárfás, we consider, for any q ≥ 2, the existence of q-power cycles (i.e., with length a power of q) in cubic graphs. We exhibit constructions showing that, for every q ≥ 3, there exist arbitrarily large cubic graphs with no q-power cycles. Concerning the remaining case q = 2 (which corresponds to the conjecture of Erdős and Gyárfás), we show that there exist arbitrarily large cubic graphs whose all 2-power cycles have length 4 only, or 8 only.
The subject of this paper regards a procedure to obtain the abstract form of concepts, directly from their most natural form, thus these can be efficiently learned and the possibility of operating formally on them is reached. The achievement of said type of form results also useful to compute conceptual parameters symbolic and numerical in nature.
This article presents the principal results of the doctoral thesis “Direct Operational Methods in the Environment of a Computer Algebra System” by Margarita Spiridonova (Institute of mathematics and Informatics, BAS), successfully defended before the Specialised Academic Council for Informatics and Mathematical Modelling on 23 March, 2009.The presented research is related to the operational calculus approach and its representative applications. Operational methods are considered, as well as their...
