Range Searching with Efficient Hierarchical Cuttings.
Based on the formal framework of reaction systems by Ehrenfeucht and Rozenberg [Fund. Inform. 75 (2007) 263–280], reaction automata (RAs) have been introduced by Okubo et al. [Theoret. Comput. Sci. 429 (2012) 247–257], as language acceptors with multiset rewriting mechanism. In this paper, we continue the investigation of RAs with a focus on the two manners of rule application: maximally parallel and sequential. Considering restrictions on the workspace and the λ-input mode, we introduce the corresponding...
For both the edge deletion heuristic and the maximum-degree greedy heuristic, we study the problem of recognizing those graphs for which that heuristic can approximate the size of a minimum vertex cover within a constant factor of , where is a fixed rational number. Our main results are that these problems are complete for the class of problems solvable via parallel access to . To achieve these main results, we also show that the restriction of the vertex cover problem to those graphs for which...
For both the edge deletion heuristic and the maximum-degree greedy heuristic, we study the problem of recognizing those graphs for which that heuristic can approximate the size of a minimum vertex cover within a constant factor of r, where r is a fixed rational number. Our main results are that these problems are complete for the class of problems solvable via parallel access to NP. To achieve these main results, we also show that the restriction of the vertex cover problem to those...
This paper deals with the reconstructibility of Boolean control networks (BCNs) with time delays in states. First, a survey on the semi-tensor product, weighted pair graph, constructed forest and finite automata is given. Second, by using the weighted pair graph, constructed forest and finite automata, an algorithm is designed to judge whether a Boolean control network with time delays in states is reconstructable or not under a mild assumption. Third, an algorithm is proposed to determine the current...
