The complexity of the travelling repairman problem
We add sequential operations to the categorical algebra of weighted and Markov automata introduced in [L. de Francesco Albasini, N. Sabadini and R.F.C. Walters, arXiv:0909.4136]. The extra expressiveness of the algebra permits the description of hierarchical systems, and ones with evolving geometry. We make a comparison with the probabilistic automata of Lynch et al. [SIAM J. Comput. 37 (2007) 977–1013].

Sufficient conditions for the existence of a topological conjugacy between a cascade obtained from a weakly nonlinear flow by fixing the time step and a cascade obtained by the Euler method are analysed. The aim of this paper is to provide relations between constants in the Fečkan theorem. Given such relations an implementation of a weakly nonlinear neuron is possible.
Generalizing the results of Thue (for n = 2) [Norske Vid. Selsk. Skr. Mat. Nat. Kl. 1 (1912) 1–67] and of Klepinin and Sukhanov (for n = 3) [Discrete Appl. Math. 114 (2001) 155–169], we prove that for all n ≥ 2, the critical exponent of the Arshon word of order n is given by (3n–2)/(2n–2), and this exponent is attained at position 1.
We study the use of a GPU for the numerical approximation of the curvature dependent flows of graphs - the mean-curvature flow and the Willmore flow. Both problems are often applied in image processing where fast solvers are required. We approximate these problems using the complementary finite volume method combined with the method of lines. We obtain a system of ordinary differential equations which we solve by the Runge-Kutta-Merson solver. It is a robust solver with an automatic choice of the...
We show that it is decidable whether or not a given Q-rational series in several noncommutative variables has a cyclic image. By definition, a series r has a cyclic image if there is a rational number q such that all nonzero coefficients of r are integer powers of q.
