Characterization of substitution invariant words coding exchange of three intervals.
We investigate well-structured graph-driven parity-FBDDs, which strictly generalize the two well-known models parity OBDDs and well-structured graph-driven FBDDs. The first main result is a characterization of the complexity of Boolean functions represented by well-structured graph-driven parity-FBDDs in terms of invariants of the function represented and the graph-ordering used. As a consequence, we derive a lower bound criterion and prove an exponential lower bound for certain linear code functions....

Actuellement de plus en plus honoré par les informaticiens à la recherche d'une paternité pour leurs nouvelles machines, Charles Babbage reste un mathématicien peu connu. Il est pourtant à l'origine d'une École Algébrique Anglaise dont les travaux ont su expliciter les caractéristiques des méthodes opératoires et les imposer comme essentielles à la nouvelle algèbre ; parmi les nouveaux «scientists» d'une Angleterre émergeant de sa révolution industrielle dans les années 1830, Babbage, qui est politiquement...
It is proved that checking positive definiteness, stability or nonsingularity of all [symmetric] matrices contained in a symmetric interval matrix is NP-hard.
Circular splicing has been very recently introduced to model a specific recombinant behaviour of circular DNA, continuing the investigation initiated with linear splicing. In this paper we restrict our study to the relationship between regular circular languages and languages generated by finite circular splicing systems and provide some results towards a characterization of the intersection between these two classes. We consider the class of languages , called here star languages, which are closed...
